Tried a couple searches but no luck. What are the steps needed to remove the rear shock on a 93?
Already removed the motor and rear caliper. JK :wacko2: TIA

Remove seat and side panels
Put bike on center stand
Put block under rear tire
Remove relay arm/dog bone bolt, let dog bones dangle from swing arm bolts
Remove lower relay arm/ shock bolt, pivot relay arm forward for clearance
Remove upper shock bolt while supporting shock...and pull the shock out from the bottom
