    The PO was riding my bike as a hard tail but gave me the hardware to put it back if I wanted to. I have the Hayne manual but it doesn't give me the info I was looking for to help me get the springs back on.

    Does anyone have a link or should I be purchasing the service manual sooner than later.

    Thanks

    Should be as simple as unbolting the struts, top and bottom, and bolting the shocks back on. There should be two washers and a nut to go on each top, and a couple of washers and a nut for the bottom left and a bolt and nut for the bottom right.

    Put it on the centerstand and take the hardtail struts off, then put the shocks back on.
