Marzochi forks.

[colem]

Hi,

Just got a 99 gas gas 300 which has the marzochi conventional forks. There's a blue knob on the top of each fork leg and I think one is compression and the other is rebound. I looked in my manual but it doesnt say which is which. Which would be which when I'm sitting on the bike?

The manual says there is 16 clicks worth of adjustment but I can only get it to go 13. Both forks are like this too. Any ideas?

The forks seem a little harsh over really small stuff like washboards on fire roads yet if I back off on the compression they become too soft. Any ideas?

Thanks

my '96 ktm 360 has the same forks on it. the left fork should be the compression tube and the right the rebound. look very closely at the the blue clickers. there should be a very small "C" and "R" on the knobs, respectively. read the following threads:
