If you mean the wrench used to adjust the OEM shocks, there would have been one in the tool kit that came with the bike. If you don't have the kit, you might be able to track one down with a wanted ad in the classifieds or on ebay.

i bought a used Valk so if theres a tool kit with bike i havent found it [are the tools hidden somewhere?] nor a owners manual [YES Ive had the seat off] but i dont see book or tools on my USED Standard Valk I didnt post ad on classified I assumed that was for selling items |

Bummer, the tool kit (and owner's manual) were included with both of the used Valks I've owned. Actually, I guess the owner's manual for my Interstate was missing, but I found one online for something like $16.
Feel free to post a wanted ad in the classifieds, hopefully somebody will be willing to give theirs up. I would think that with so many Valk owners putting on aftermarket rear shocks that it'd be somewhat easy to get ahold of one. If I had one you'd be welcome to it, but my USED Valk didn't come with one.

As a "get by" tool, you can use a strap wrench to turn the shock. On an I/S model it works better than the metal wrench as the saddle bags get in the way.
