Rear Stock Shock

[CarGuy7a]

anyone ever played with the little flat blade screw adjustments on the rear shock?

what all does it do and how does it feel?

For MX turn the compression (top screw) about in the middle, for jumps, hard landings etc. And the rebound (bottom screw) all the way soft for fast rebound over whoops and braking bumps. That way only a pro racer can outride the stock rear shock.;)

I dont ride whoops, so having some rebound is good.

If you ride the track, I like to set it up so you only lightly bottom out once on the biggest jump. That way your taking full advantage of the suspension travel that youb have.

with my 6 ply rear Razr's and the shock on the stock settings it was jar your teeth out rough. today i turned both of the screws to full hard and it felt pretty good.

on the rebound screw. softer means it raises back up slower right? and harder faster?

on the compression. softer means it compresses faster and harder slower right?
