other than the notched preload adjuster which either softens the ride or hardens it you dont need to touch the rebound adjuster at all ,also dont have your shock nuts tight up to the shock as this can cause snapping ,fit half nylock nuts tighten then back off a bit

Has anyone got similar instructions for the BGM (version 1)? good to read the definations of the settings such as pre load. Now i know what the definations are i only need to find out where they are on the bgm and which way softens or hardens...
