Shock preload
Loosen the set screw and turn the spring
perch in full turn increments to get the
desired sag settings.
NOTE:
Always leave the spring perch rotated in
such position so that the set screw is easily
accessible.
Shock Damping
The Low Speed “L” adjustment is what controls how quickly the rear
of the bike settles in the corners or how it settles in sweeping ‘flat

how the shock reacts to kickers. In “+” adds damping or slows it
down, whereas out, “-“ speeds up the shock or removes damping.
