yfz rear shock preload

I was looking at a yfz at my dealer today and the rear shock is really tucked up in there.

I got to thinking how easy is it to set the spring preload on one of these?

Just curious, looks real tight.

Thanks

You do have to remove the airbox to adjust the pre-load. But 4 bolts and the carb clamp and it's out, plus, you only ever adjust pre-load once, so it's not a big deal.
