[QUOTE="ChuckyBoy, post: 683119, member: 30830"] I’ll admit it, I’m ignorant. But why is it so important to have 10 to 15 mm of preload as compared to 20 or 30 mm? I bought my bike (98 220) with .38 Freddette springs already installed. I recently had my forks serviced and the technician said that the spacer was a “metal OEM looking piece”. After taking all the measurements, he was able to calculate that I have 22 mm of preload. I am wondering if I need to replace the metal spacers with shorter pieces of PVC to reduce the amount of preload to the more widely accepted 10 -15 mm range. If someone can verbalize the pluses of 10 mm of preload versus the minuses of 20+ mm of preload I would appreciate it. Thanks, Chuck [/QUOTE]
