Why are our fork caps not preload adjustable?
Anyway I always felt my forks were too harsh riding over bumps. Never did anything about it because I'm not to particular. But I checked my sag yesterday roughly by myself with a wire tie. Holy Smokes it was about maybe 60mm as close as I could figure. Between 55 and 60 anyway. Again by yourself makes it a bit difficult.
So just using what I had in the garage I managed to get the caps off (good trick without a 17mm allen socket) and find suitable spacer material (out of a VFR airbox), about 22mm, and go for a test ride. Wow. SO much better. My dumb lazy @zz. jeez.
Anyway if you have not checked your sag, do.
