To replace the shock absorber on the Triumph Tiger 900, loosen the screws that secure it from the bottom and those that secure it from the top. These screws will be accessible from the side of the rear swingarm and from the side just below the mudguard.

Once all screws are loosened, remove the pins that secure the shock absorber in its housing.
