Suspension settings
Hey guys

Just another "stupid" kind of question.

My TBS seems to be set up for the "firm" ride. However in my opinion the front end still "dives" under braking. I am 200 lbs.

Stupid questions
1. On the front spring pre load. By screwing the nut clockwise to allow more lines to be seen actually softens the suspension?? I had to do a double take on this. Screwing clockwise always makes me thing of "firming" things up. Mine is set to show 4 lines. This should be pretty firm??

On all of my adjustments where you count the "clicks" from fully clockwise. When fully screwed in each adjuster will sound the initial click almost straight away as you begin to screw anti clockwise. Is this still counted as a proper click??

Told you they were stupid.

Thanks for any clarification

Tomsdad
