profWacko Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 According to the owner's manual and the shop manual CD I have, the fork preload adjusters should have a range of 15 turns from min to max. Mine have only 5 turns before hitting a substantial stop. I have switched to heavier progressive forksprings from Wilbers and I need to add a little more preload since my sag measures 32mm/44mm (unladen/laden). Is there likely something wrong with the hardware on my forks, or does anyone else with one of these models really have 15 turns of preload adjustability?

Mr. Bean Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Not sure, but I believe my Ballabio has the same non-Ohlins suspension as your LeMans. I can never remember which is preload, but the large, wrench-adjusted, setting does have a full 15 turns of adjustment. The little brass screw adjuster in the center only has about 5 or so turns lock to lock. Hope this helps, Randy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
