Setting sag on Brock's/Ohlins drag shock

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   last fall I bought a 3 year old Brock's/Ohlins zx14 drag shock from a buddy of you guys, Brian.  He weighed much more than  do but he had his on an older 14 and I've got a 14r.  EJ was very nice in answering emails for me.  I've also watched your vidoes of setting up the shock and still have a question.  I had to take out 1/2" of preload to get the shock to start squatting.

Question, do you set the sag with the compression adjuster cranked down to your recommended setting or back it out?

Thanks in advance.

	Toledo, It makes no difference... all the compression adjustment will do is determine how fast or slow your shock moves. Brock
