Spring Preload

You can adjust the spring preload by the adjuster to suit the load or the road surface.


Turn the adjuster using the 19 mm Box end wrench provided in the tool kit.


The spring preload adjuster has 15 turns.

Turn clockwise to increase spring preload (hard), or turn counterclockwise to decrease spring preload (soft). The standard position is the 6 turns from the full soft position.
