So the Penske website says this is a single adjustable, entry level shock, but you obviously upgraded to a remote reservoir.

What adjustments does the shock have?
Ride height?
Compression? (High speed and low speed?)
Rebound?

Penske Shocks / Motorcycle / 8900 EMULSION SINGLE ADJUSTABLE

Thanks!

Penske shocks are offered in different configurations, emulsion type, double adjuster piggyback, double adjuster remote reservoir, triple adjuster, so forth and so on, pretty much any configuration you want. The price of the shock goes up from there.

Now this shock is a double adjuster with the Rebound adjuster on the clevis (the red ****); the Low speed compression adjuster on the reservoir and the ride height adjuster on the clevis (the double nut arrangement).

I hope this answers your question.
