    Re: The UPS man loves me!!!

    Here is some tips on setting them to the right tension.

    there is a way of adjusting the konis...it requires a bit of researching as the instructions don't really say shit. Here are the instructions because it might be a good ideal to dial in both sides equally.

    1. Fully compress the shock absorber, at the same time turning the dust cap or piston rod slowly to the left (anti-clockwise), until it is felt that the cams of the adjusting nut engage in the recesses of the foot valve assembly (fig. 1).
    NOTE: Some shock absorbers include a bump rubber concealed under the dust cover and this must be removed prior to adjusting. Don’t forget to re-install.
    2. Keeping the shock absorber compressed make 1 full turn (360°) to the right (clockwise). The total range is about 5 half turns (fig. 2).
    3. Extend the shock absorber vertically for at least 1 cm without turning in order to disengage the adjusting mechanism. The dust cap or piston rod may now be turned freely.
    WARNING: Adjust both left and right dampers identically. Failure to do so may lead to unstable handling and uneven tyre tread wear.

    I wouldn't call them "tips", they're the instuctions on how to adjust your Koni's that came with them when you bought them.
