1200 DVT Preload Confusion

Discussion in 'Multistrada' started by Justatad, Apr 5, 2021.

  1. Hello all, I’m trying to get my base model 2015 dvt back to standard / default preload settings, I’ve only turned the plastic knob clockwise for when I’ve carried a pillion to stiffen the rear spring
    But I don’t understand the manual, it doesn’t give any ‘how many clicks’ info, only a measurement to return back to standard
    Can someone please explain
    Many thanks
    Steve

  2. If you turn the adjuster clockwise does it go inwards? Is the measurement they are taking about the distance of the knob in relation to the body of the adjuster? If that makes sense? Not sure what the 18-25 means, if 18 is fully closed then does that mean stock setting is just fully closed (clockwise)?
     
  3. That was my thought too, that the knob moves in relation to the body, but I don't have one of those on mine ...
