Sachs RR fork tip

Postby Hyde » Fri May 09, 2014 5:48 am

So I'm reading through the manual on the new 450 checking the settings, and notice that the compression adjuster is on the bottom and rebound on the top, opposite of a WP if that's what your used to, I actually got them working quite well on my 2t but struggled longer than I would have if i would have read the the book.

Just a heads up for guys that didn't catch it.

Kind of like my buddy, who thought the PFP adjustment on his GG Zokes was referenced from full CW, like the other adjusters. He wondered why it beat the crap out of him at 1 turn, which was actually 9. :shock: :lol:

LOL! I did the same thing, use to my showas. No matter how I turned the top clickers it wasn`t getting softer, went back and read the manual and felt like a dummy.
But once I did adjust the compression it seemed that turning the clickers did make a big difference. I`m having a different problem than everone else on here seems to have, I like the sachs forks but I`m still having problems getting the shock to feel good.

The WP OC forks are the same as the Sachs.
