Was doing a bike last night, Lyrik Ultimate for a mate.

He had this

His HSC is maxxed on his + adjustment on his HSC

He's got 5 clicks according to google. So does the Shockwiz mean he's needing more - ? or does it mean we can't get it better as he can't go any more + ???

I know i should know... i know i think i know... but i'm now wondering if i'm being completely daft here.

I'm reading that as less HSC as atm it's too firm, so you need to "make softer".

Won't get to re-test until weekend now when i see him next. But i'm sure hoping you guys are right as i can dial out 3 clicks to - and see where that puts us.

Doesn't the + and - relate to high speed compression damping. Winding it towards - reduces the damping and therefore makes it easier to compress? So if you need more compression you need less damping so turn to -.
