Pre load

[vmaxcruzer]

Anyone ever pop the top on your forks and find a 3-4 inch pre-load exposure?
I took the top off a buddys forks last night and BOOOING! Funny thing was that the oil level was WAY LOW. Factory springs with home made spacers. He's getting my old progressive springs.
Some people have just enough sense to be dangerous.

Wow, I got my first Vmax and it had 50lbs of air in the forks. Felt like a hard "nose" front end.

How in the hell did it not blow the seals out of them? LMAO.

When I picked mine up, the fork was ultra low, I checked the air, there wasn't more than 1-2lbs in there. I have them at 10psi now and everything feels much better. Much easier to bring up onto the center stand now too!
