Has anyone got the scoop on what the clicker actually adjusts on the 05 RX-1's?
(low speed?, high speed?, compression?, rebound?)

Combination of low and high speed?
Where did you get the info?

compression and rebound
low and high speeds
not a linear adjustment as far as shock speed

I think it's gotta adjust only the compression or just the rebound stroke. it can't be for both unless there are two control knobs to adjust both.
Other shocks (fox) have only one knob and usually it's for adjusting the compression. The resistance of the rebound is easier to adjust with the spring.

The dial controls BOTH compression AND rebound damping. Each click has more affect on the rebound damping than compression.

Hmmm... Just about every possible conflicting answer...
My dealer doesn't know either.
I wonder if I could find out through KYB?
After re-valving shocks for various vehicles for many years I've found for a particular spring rate and vehicle/rider weight there is an ideal setup for low speed compression, low speed rebound, and high speed rebound. Where I've found it hard to find an ideal setup is the high speed compression damping (a little softer - but still highly damped is ideal for aggressive trail riding, and very high high speed damping is ideal for landing off jumps).
So, in my dream world, the knob would largly control high speed compression damping and the other rates would be ideal for a 250 lbs (including gear) aggressive rider, who also wants a smooth ride at lower speeds.
The shock is rebuildable, so I can probably tweak it pretty close to what I want - if aftermarket valve parts are available...
