Question

?


Hi Peter,

i was told you are the man who could answer my question below.

I finally decided to do something about the suspension, went and got this generic spring nut tools to adjust the rear preload. doesn't even work right, scratched up everything. then i check the default settings which is set for 150lbs load and they were somewhat off. the preload was way off, about 15mm. now it rides a lot better. i can tell it made a lot of difference even at 150lbs setting and im around 130lbs.

so now my question is this.

front setting for 150lbs.
rebound - 9 clicks
comp - 7 clicks

if 9 clicks @ 150lbs then 130lbs should = 7.8 clicks. do i just take the difference which is 1.2 click and add to 9 which is 10.2? higher nubmer is softer. does that make sense? if so i can do the same for rear. correct?

if not how much turn should i try for 10-20lbs less than default settings?

THanks in advance.
