Default Front Spring Preload

Guys and Gals,

Always been curious. Do the screw slots for each fork preload adjustment have to be aligned with each other. Mine are both pointing in, aligned with the cut out slots for the handle bars not in the same direction if you get what I mean. Always wondered?????

No. Just ensure that both adjusters are set at the same line.

But, if it bothers you, you could undo the clamp bolts and rotate the frok leg in the yokes 'til the adjuster slots were lined up.

But I think that could be considered a dab fussy.
