    How many clicks on the rear suspension

    Well guys its finally here. Rode it only 5 miles and it started raining. My question how many clicks on the rear suspension. I went up the small on my driveway and the rear bottomed out. The rear was set to the lowest mark. I thought some one on here said 17 clicks.

    yep, i started on 17 then i did a couple of small adjustments till i got it right. Sorry I can't tell you what it is currently on but it works for me at 100kg and 185cm.

    I still find the front suspension a bit stiff but i ride on goat tracks here in Au

    I usually only put 1 chick on the rear! some chicks are larger then others so 17 clicks is midway. Some of us roosters are larger then most too!

    I keep mine mid point, then stiffen it up 3-5 clicks for high performance or load carrying.

    I have mine fully in (to the right) for the last 600-700 miles. I wanted to feel some data in my rear and then go backwards towards mid point. As a virgin I am very sensitive to data in the rear. My virginity will unquestionably be intact after my final adjustment.

    I weigh about 180 with my gear on and found 15 clicks is my magic number.

    20 clicks from "sloth-comfy-cozy" or from "backbone-herniation-effect"?

    G'day 53Driver, 20 clicks from granny's feather bed.
    Seems a good compromise still corners good without that
    spongy feeling and soaks up our bumps which can be like
    small creators around here.

    (FYI the rum is very tasty)
