Thanks VR6. I'm thinking about installing the Thrux adjusters, and wanted to hear about a couple of approachs for sizing the preload spacers.

I'm thinking about either doing it the way you did, so that soft is all the way out, or maybe shortening the spacer just a touch more so 'normal' would be in the middle, and could adjust for less or more preload by adjusting around the middle adjuster position.

Per Pat's suggestion, I guess installing handlebar spacers or clip on bars are the only answers to provide room to get a wrench on the adjusters.
