2. Use of stiff spring
Generally a stiff spring gives a stiff riding
feeling. Rebound damping tends to
become weaker, resulting in lack of a
sense of contact with the road surface or
in a vibrating handlebar.
To set a stiff spring:
lChange the rebound damping.
Turn in one or two clicks.
lChange the compression damping.
Turn out one or two clicks.
