[QUOTE="2smoke, post: 154787, member: 563"] Do you have a manual? If so it will tell you what factory settings are supposed to be for compression and rebound. Then you can adjust them accordingly to you liking. Or.......... You can just pick a side. Run both the compression and rebound to the left (counter clockwise) till they stop. PLEASE ensure that you count the (Clicks) or detents as you go. Write down the final number for compression and rebound. Adjust them back to where they were. Then do the same thing to the opposite side. If they match then your fine. If they didnt match chose a side and make sure they match. If your still having compression and rebound problems you either need to adjust them to your liking. Or....... you may not have equal amount of fork oil in the fork tubes. At which point. I would take them apart redue the fork and wiper seals and fresh oil. While you have it aport inspect for broken parts in the fork tube assemblies. Or you may be heavier than what the fork springs are rated for. There are alot of variables. But if you want a good safe riding experience properly sprung shocks and forks should be your first priority after a good running engine. [/QUOTE]
