Preload adjustment question.

change springs
installing spacers in forks can compress the springs, like the rear shock spring adjustment.
the screws are for adjusting compression rate. There should be something on your owners manual on compression rate adjustment, if not, lots around here. They turn in "clicks" and I believe stop at all the way in, but won't stop on the way out. I haven't played with these enough to give good advice.

cheap screwdriver (top of the handle will get little messed up)...small hammer....tap tap tap...easy....you can see my before (stock mark) and after below....i tried to do the adjustments myself watching a youtube videos and using zip ties on the forks...i gave up and took it in to a professional shop in the end....made a HUGE difference to how it rides....

That seems like money well spent. I will fiddle with mine but I think a professional adjustment is the way to go for me.

If you're studious, you can probably figure it out yourself. But time is money as they say.

There are enough variables that I bet experience is pretty valuable for this. I do think with I could figure it out but not without a great deal of trial and error.
