How do you replace the rear shock absorber on the Piaggio Zip?

In order to replace the rear shock absorber of the Piaggio Zip, the underseat compartment must be opened, so that it can be completely removed by unscrewing the fixing screws inside: once this compartment has been completely removed, it will be possible to access the screw fixing the shock absorber from its upper part. This screw will have to be loosened so that you can then proceed to unscrew the one in the lower part; in this way the old shock absorber can be removed from its housing and then replaced with a new spare part.
