Depends on the threads on the bike. You will know of its compressing the spring as it gets harder to turn. If it gets easier to turn you know it's removing tension from the spring.
I thought when you lower that nut it makes it looser softer. And when you raise the nut it stiffens it. Unless my shock on this bike i just bought is blown out. The nut is all the way down and i can just push on the seat and it goes all the way down soooo soft!!!
The rebound so To set your suspension's rebound damping, find a kerb. Dial off all your rebound damping to minimum. Ride off the kerb, while standing up on the pedals, at slow to mid-paced speed. Your suspension will probably compress, quickly re-extend (past the sag point), compress again and then re-extend again. For the forks set a base fork rebound, start with the rebound fully closed (+). Stand next to your bike and compress the fork with your body weight. Quickly release the fork and let it bounce back. Adjust the rebound until the fork rebounds as fast as possible without causing the front wheel to 'jump' off the ground
Thanks brother...SkyLife on his first dirt bike. Shame parents didn't teach this because of fear of this in the 80s.
Thanks bro. This helped a lot. My crf250L will be more fun now!
Thanks man just got my first bike definitely helps👍
Sick I'm doing this on my dirtbike when I get home from swimming 💪 ty
does this adjust the seat height?
Helps me alot..thakyou very much.
Glad it worked man
@@weekendwrench dose the bike get higher when you put it on the max
Thanks man I just did it it’s riding greay
Gotta stiffen my new built yz125...I'm 17stone and the rear looks like it's well low...
Wait so see when I ride my back starts hurting probably because it’s set for a heavier person so is it left or right I’m confused?

what should I do if the rear suspension completely dies out
my bike is no longer standing up from the back, what should I do
Probably replace the shock or check to see if shock mounts or coils are bent or broken
@@weekendwrench I was worried it was something worse
Thanks for the help
Appreciate it 👍
What tools do you use instead of just your hands
Any flat metal and a mallet or softly with a hammer
Thank you man
So what does that do just bring the bike higher for the rider
It doesn't bring the seat higher it makes it sag less with the riders weight on it
Is this adjustment will be done to any coilovers?
Pretty much universal in these types of shocks yes
Omg thanks bro
Whats the seat height on the bike
At normal adjustment its 31 inches
I am about 5foot 10 do you think a 28inch seat height at normal adjustment is OK
@@lewis7908 28 inches is very short id say at least 34 inches
@@weekendwrench its a pit bike though they aren't meant to be big
@@weekendwrench can't I just make the suspension higher
Good unit
Aloha thanks for the tip...
Always ohana
How do I change the rebound?
The rebound so To set your suspension's rebound damping, find a kerb. Dial off all your rebound damping to minimum. Ride off the kerb, while standing up on the pedals, at slow to mid-paced speed.

do u think this bike would fit me im 5'7?
I think its a little small for you, I'd go for something bigger. I'm 5'7 as well and it will move me but it's awkward to ride regularly 😅
how about the front ones
The front ones are operated by a valve and you should unscrew it to release built-up pressure to ensure your seals last a long time
Thank you
No problem
You just use your hand?
how long have you had your coolster and is it still running well?
2 yrs about 90 hours on them of pretty far trails and still has a compression of 191psi
2.5 years now actually
You’re adjusting your preload. Please don’t slam the preload on your shock for your daughter it could be very dangerous.
