Can anyone recommend where to buy a c spanner to undo the locknuts on the rear shock and what brand. 996 & Ohlins.
Cheers.

Sorry, I can't help with the C spanner but for god's sake (literally) get a hold of your dog!!

If he did worse the payback could be a real b1tch!!!

I'm sure Harris will be pleased to sell you an Ohlins shock spanner if you want the real deal.

I'd try M&P accessories or even your friendly Ducati dealer, might not be as expensive as you'd imagine.

I'm sure Skidlids will be a long in a little while once hes finished shooting plasma into his DD bike - with a decent answer.

Harris can supply the ohlins ones, AIR they weren't too expensive when i bought mine. They can also supply nice new lock rings without screwdriver chips should you need one as well

Screwdriver chips, there's some animals about, a piece of copper pipe with the end bent over works well as its softer than the rings and doesn't mark them.

Don't ask me how i know

I've got a proper C spanner by the way but have used the copper pipe on a dirt bike before in the past when the C spanner wasn't available.
