thank you for the flat head screw driver tip for installing the rear shock, I had a hell of a time putting the rear wheel back on my bike until I watched this video
Thank you for watching my video
Please never change the intro
Ah Ah Ah I love my intro ah ah thank you for watching my video
New update.After watching your
whole video I came home and turned the shock around and they work perfectly no adjusting needed.
Excellent video. I used a gas shock on my Yamaha Neos 50 2T in an emergency, as I had nothing else. It’s a Stage6 MKII gas shock. It’s really for the track. But works on the road great when adjusted. It’s got a separate adjustment for the the compression and the rebound. And has good balance with the stock front on the Neos. So as it suited the bike and my weight. I kept it on there. Happy Days as one says.
Hello Michael thank you for watching my video

Hello Bo Dog thank you for watching my video
Love my g35 damn near as reliable as a Altima 😂
🌟Awesome work my friend 🙌💯tunning the ride & pull apart the front fork trees & change the weight of the fork oil in the front. Probably change the vibration & handling to the better ! Just a thought, I'm doing as a winter project ( roads are terrible here) . Thanks for sharing your knowledge my friend 🛵💯👊

Hello Reginald thank you for watching my video
Yr welcome
For the life of me I cannot find the size of my 2009 SYM Citycom 300i
Do you know what would be a good replacement for it? Thanks 🙏🏼
😅I have a 49cc 2 stroke kymco people scooter when I start it the wheel runs in reverse. Do you have any idea what's causing this problem.
Hello my friend hope you doing well.i was wondering how to check if my front shocks are done i ride a 150cc scooter please help me thank you
Great video, thanks for help. my OEM shock is 290mm , but the options I see on amazon, with can behind spring are either 280mm or 320mm. I’m on the heavier side (230#) Which would you choose? Or would you go with the straight spring (no can) that is 290mm?
Hello Herb if they do not have the 290mm with the can buy the straight spring at 290 mmm amzn.to/3zjPv02 but make sure you have the same connections on your scooter becouse some one comes with a fork on the lower side thank you for watching my video
Make a video on front forks for gy6 150 please!!!
hello friend.. great video as always.... i haven't removed a rear tyre ever.. i wanna remove it so that i can changed it.. together with its rim... will it create alot of work ?
Hello my friend removing your rear tire will take you little bit of work but not to much after you remove the exhaust system and you remove the swing harm you are almost done check this video ua-cam.com/video/P2N8ibZwMD0/v-deo.html that I made few years ago and that will give you an idea on how to remove the rear tire . Thank you for watching my video
I am very interested in changing the rear shocks on my Chinese ICEBEAR HAWKEYE 150cc scooter. However, the owner's manual does not help me to determine a replacement shock. How do I determine the correct replacement shock? How should I measure the size of the existing shock? Do I measure from top to bottom with the scooter sitting on the Center Stand? Do I measure from top to bottom from center of screw holes?
Hello skipperdan1 place the scooter on the center stand and measure from top to bottom from center of screw holes in mm is better and make sure you have room for the little suspension tank amzn.to/359OnzN . Thank you for watching my video
great video, BUT, do you put cans facing forward, OR to the back??? or it don't matter? LMK, thanks!
Hello my friend I like the can facing back but unfortunately the frame is touching the can support harm so in this gy6 scooter you have to put the can facing forward but at the end the spring will function good in any way thank you for watching my video
Hello my friend its me again you are the only person i ask for advice hope you are doing good i have a question how do I know if i need new front shocks on my 150cc scooter thank you from south africa
Hello my friend the time to replace or inspect your front shocks is when you feel that riding your scooter become little unstable at high speed and one the most common sign of bad front shocks is when your front end dives more than expected during hard braking. Thank you for watching my video and be safe
Hey man I have a question for you I just replace the shocks in my scooter I bought the same brand that you have mine are stiff as a rock I loosened the spring but they're still hard as a rock I was wondering if the nitrogen would make it that way if it was overfilled or something if you have any ideas I would appreciate letting me know thanks brother catch you on the next 1
Hello Andy next to the shock there is a little can under that you can see a little valve where you can releasing the gas and you will give little more space to the shock oil but to be précised you will need have a tire pressure gauge to make both shocks equal at pressure or you will feel that you are riding side way and a possibility of a abnormal tire wear make sure when you release the gas you do 1 second burst at the time to avoid releasing too much gas and protect your eyes and mouth because the inside rubber seals are not perfect and you may have a oil mist mix with pressure gas . When I change my shocks at first they was really hard but the get little softer every time I ride the scooter but not like the old suspension that the was very soft . Thank you for watching my video
Do you have a video on putting final gears in 150cc scooter? And any recommendations?
Hello Howard no unfortunately I didn't make a video yet on scooter gear
@@VirberelloScooterTips please do......?
i have yamaha GT soul my bike sometimes shaking from back side rear tire is the rear shock problem once i was trying to take a small right hand turn and bike bike started shaking and i almost lost balance ,missed a fall ,i changed the mono shock ,but have still the fear in me.
When my moped has a passenger it will go low and start to hit the trunk if I buy a good quality suspender do u think it will ride good
Hello yes with better suspension your scooter will run better with a passenger
Love your vids! Where can I get shocks that fit a 49 cc Yamaha Vino classic 2003 model? Thanks!!!
Hello my friend I think the 280 mm will fit ok amzn.to/3PMoOsD but the best thing to do is to measure the original shocks that you have on your scooter and see to make sure we will do the right thing also you should research for Forsa Honda Elite Adjustable Performance Shock - 245mm To 265mm they are little more expensive but great shocks . Thank you for watching my video
@@VirberelloScooterTips Thank you for the help brother! I am in the process of adding a 12 volt battery charger port like you did. Mines a little more complicated because I did not have the space you had and my battery is small and the ports covered tight.....but I'm crimping onto the wires and doing it now. I subbed and love how you do your vids. I have a channel as well but its mainly about guns, accessories, product reviews, and Christian videos. But I was given a 49cc Yahama Vino Classic 2003 by a friend. It only had 280 miles on it and I have been LOVING it! Look forward to more vids!
@@VirberelloScooterTips So measured and mine is about 10 inches so 254 mm and the one you sent me says 280mm. Would that work? Also do you have any recommendation for replacing the FRONG shocks? Lastly I would like to upgrade to a tire that gives me more stability. When I hit a pot hole or speed bump it almost causes me to lose control it hits so hard and jars everything. Any ideas? Thanks again!!!
@@MrBrad777c Hello my friend 280 mm is little to big if you have a 254 mm we need to find something with a good quality and with the same size search for Forsa Ruckus Performance Shock - 252mm these shocks they are about 100 dollars or Forsa Ruckus Performance Shock W/Reservoir - 252mm about 120 dollars but I'm not sure if your scooter have space for the reservoir can you can find these shocks on parts for scooter website they are at 2390 31st Street South, Saint Petersburg, FL 33712 and is a good company
Hello my friend, I have a question do you know what size bolts stock scooter rear shocks use...?
Hello my friend I think is M8 12 mm but i will research a little more
Thank you for this info I need to replace the bolt on my rear left shock 👍
Good morning sir, am bean watching your videos for awhile thank you make your it simple any one can do it @ home. I want to ask from you am using a chinese scooter its a very short scooter when am riding in a speed limit bump the main stand knocks in it so if replace with new shocks will it solve my problem always .
I want a reply for my question , can you help me sir
Hello by adjusting the shock you can slightly fix the problem but the best way is to will have a thicker tires or will be safer to remove the center stand and only use a side stand .Thank you for watching my video and be safe
These are chinese shocks cant ajust them, if i replace with a new pair of shocks will this help, thank for your support
If i remove the main stand will it hit engine when riding ??
Hi dude, I have seen your video but I still have some questions. I have sinnis shuttle 125cc with the shock absorber details as follow
Distance Between Hole Centres: 340mm
Top Bush Width: 21mm
Bottom Bush/Fork Width: 20mm
Top Hole Diameter: 10mm
Bottom Thread Diameter: M8
Is that okay that I can use that type of nitro shock absorber that you are replacing. Is it going to fit in mine?
Thank you.
Hello if the distance between hole is 340mm you will need this amzn.to/3GdmZzz and they will work great Possbay Motorcycle Shock Motorcycle Rear Shocks ATV Shocks Absorber 13.4"/340mm Rear Suspension make sure the connection match you present shocks . Thank you for watching my video
Hi I love your video. It helps alot. Question? How would I know which is the right shocks to buy? I love the link you provided. But it haves a delivery charge. Is there any other brand or one thats a little affordable.? I have a jiajue 150cc gy6. I would really appreciate if you can help me on this one. Thanks!
Hello Julio for gy6 150cc the perfect shocks is 13.7Inch 350mm but to make sure take measure of the shocks that you have at the moment try to check on ebay sometime they have free shipping
@@VirberelloScooterTips thank you 😊. I will check on ebay. God bless!
Do I have to adjust the suspension you didn't show that
Yes you can but you don’t have to
Don't be like a monster and tighten too much..🤣🤣🤣
Please i have a question my scooter is leaking oil from the deep stick even it's well closed , what should i do ?
Hello Saddan make sure you have a rubber seal on the dipstick because sometime they break amzn.to/338HY54 and make sure the level of the oil is not to elevated because at that point you will have to much pressure inside the motor . Thank you for watching my video
@@VirberelloScooterTips thank you
Ive been planned to make my bike single shock ithink its ok?
Hello Jerome could be ok , make sure you do it right and safe for you . Thank you for watching my video
Xmax 250 original shock absorbers are very hard, will it be softer and more comfortable if I buy this product?
Hello you can adjust this suspension by letting little gas out of the little tank so you can make them anyway you like them just make sure you buy the right size for your scooter
@@VirberelloScooterTips I do not have a device for gas regulation. I will use it as it comes.
@@mertcicek5392 Hello my friend you do not need a device next to the shock there is a little can under that you can see a little valve where you can releasing the gas and you will give little more space to the shock oil but to be précised you will need have a tire pressure gauge to make both shocks equal at pressure or you will feel that you are riding side way and a possibility of a abnormal tire wear make sure when you release the gas you do 1 second burst at the time to avoid releasing too much gas and protect your eyes and mouth because the inside rubber seals are not perfect and you may have a oil mist mix with pressure gas .

For the eagle 150 right
Yes gy6 150cc scooter
Can you do a video on how to ajust these shock mine is too stiff. I'm 180 pounds.
Hello Harry great idea I will try to make one soon but in the same time look next to the shock there is a little can under that you can see a little valve where you can releasing the gas and you will give little more space to the shock oil but to be précised you will need have a tire pressure gauge to make both shocks equal at pressure or you will feel that you are riding side way and a possibility of a abnormal tire wear make sure when you release the gas you do 1 second burst at the time to avoid releasing too much gas and protect your eyes and mouth because the inside rubber seals are not perfect and you may have a oil mist mix with pressure gas .

So what do you have yours set to?
I am looking at your video again and I noticed you put the shock in the opposite way I did. I have a wildfire scooter 150cc.
My cooter came with 1 shock tried upgrading but realized no place on right side of bike to connect 2nd shock. What is the metal piece that you connect the right side shock to?
I think you say the swingarm tinyurl.com/mr44jp3m
@@VirberelloScooterTips thankyou your the best
@@VirberelloScooterTips can you please do a video for changing mirror ports that got stripped or how to repair
if you have a scooter like the one I have you can place a Hex M7 bolt and on the other side you can place a new nut but if you have a different scooter you can buy a rethreading tool like this amzn.to/3R3ZwKs but mirror port are very bad soft metal and they break easy so is better if you replace the part
What you have is called a mono shock. Scooter
Wiil it fit for gilera runner 2011?
Hello yes make sure you measure the shocks that you have at the moment from hole to hole in mm and you can upgrade your shocks to this ones make sure to have the same connection at the lower side of the shock . Thank you for watching my video
hey.. buddy.
after how many KMS ride. the suspension get bad. ?
Hello in my scooter one of the suspension broke at 10.000 miles not so bad for a cheap suspension
Now that you have upgraded your rear shocks, please indicate how the new shocks have improved the quality of your rides. Do you notice a smoother ride? Do you set them to hard or soft?
Hello my friend I will never go back to the OEM stocks the new shocks give me a better stability and what is funny that now I'm riding a scooter with a motorcycle handling ability for now I left then little beat hard but one of my YT members Andy reduce the gas pressure and he say that they feel great I can say that these shocks now give me a better quality riding experience
@@VirberelloScooterTips hey did you have to add anything to the shocks before you can use them? for example air or nitrogen into the shocks? thank you please reply soon if you can for i am buying these.
@@mikezimmerman817 Hello my friend no the best thing that the shocks are ready to play
How about the front ones they also make them
Hello that is a good question I didn't research yet if there is a good upgrade for the front . Thank you for watching my video and be safe
my friend......What was the size of your new shocks how long are they ?thnx buddy !!
Hello my friend the Shock 13.7Inch or 350mm thank you for watching my video
I wanna lowered my moped do you know how I can do it ?
Hello no unfortunately I 'm not sure how to do that but my idea will be to place shorter shocks but not sure 100%
@@VirberelloScooterTips ok thank you !
that shock works in my scooter piaggio fly 150cc 3v???
I'm not sure but they make this shock in different sizes so if you order make sure you take the measure in mm of your shocks from hole to hole
