Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew the number of turns "in" (or "out" if you counted that way) is stock on the front preload? I set my sag, but forgot to count, and was just wondering. Thanks
 
Here's the factory settings, they don't list the preload in clicks but in MM

Falcon I backed off my pre load a full 6 turns out and that was it,to the stop. Screwed it back in one full turn and that seems to suit me ok. That was the first and only time I touched it from taking delivery,so that was factory setting. I put red marker pen reference points on the twisty bits so I can make accurate equal adjustments. hope that helps. Ive got same suspension as you BTW
 
supduc10 thats exactly what i wanted to know and about the number of turns i thought it was....thanks!
 
Interesting. My base also came from the dealer with the fork preload at six turns in from full-out. Had to back it full-out to get 38-40mm loaded sag, and am still only getting a bit under 105mm of travel, even slamming the front brake hard enough to do stoppies. Need springs! Or...Twinkies... lots of Twinkies. :p
