I am looking for a dedicated spanner for adjusting 2012 T100 shocks. I am not interested in a punch or other "suitable" tool. TIA

The bikes come with a spanner. It is cleverly hidden in the under side of the seat pan.

out of the 3 Hinckley bikes I have each has had a shock spanner with it. none were in an obvious or convenient places to be sure.
that said, I do have some some shock spanners that I could let go (as I have changed to Ikon shocks).

Order a shock absorber spanner from any of the online triumph parts suppliers.
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.

Been using 1/4 inch bolts since I bought the bike (until changing to Hagons last year) you mean there is an official spanner tucked away under the gunfighter I took off and replaced with America seating for my wifes comfort. I asked about them at the parts counter and they knew nothing of which I spoke.

Heck neither did I!!!! I traded Brent(New Bonneville) my stock seat from the BA when I got my gunfighter for some other goodies. I sure didnt see a spanner. I used my large set of allen wrenches,, still do actually.
