23 1/2" resting with the wheel off the ground.
22 1/4" when its sitting stright up and down on the ground, not leaned over on the kick stand
20" with me on it, sittin up forward in the "i'm tired i need to rest" position... lol
so is the preload set too hard? needs more travel? or just kinda personal prefrence.... I just wanna know what it feels like to have it set where its "supposed" to be for my weight and what not. i'm 170 by the way

Klxer, thanks for the link!
23.5 inch = 59.69 centimeter = 597mm
22.25 inch = 56.515 centimeter =565mm
20 inch = 50.8 centimeter = 508mm
total travel with no load to rider3.5 inch = 8.89 centimeter or 889 mm
travel from resting on the ground to resting with rider is 2.25 inch = 5.715 centimeter or 572 mm
am i within spec on this ? thanks

cool, thanks dave...
so it looks like my sag is set to High/Hard from what i understand. they say that the average sag should be around 103mm and mines at 89mm
now when they are talking about preload, is that the spring hight? or one of the clickers? my guess is its the bottom clicker that says TEN on it. Thanks for all the help, i really appreaciate it very much

Ya when you adjust the spring by twisting the collors you are changing preload--its what you are doing.
The bottom adjustment is rebound, top is compression.
