Adjustable screw on rear shock

[cadiyama]

Exactly what is this screw adjusting. It has a "F" on one side, and a "S" if adjusted the other way. Is this screw for rebound? I would think that if it adjusted compression that it would be a "H" for hard and "S" for soft. Anyone know about or used this adjustment?

Ok, this is shock is on a 2004 Warrior. It's the large rear shock. Somebody must on this forum must know what the screw on the one end is adjusting. I'm thinking rebound rate. Come on gang, even my Yamaha dealer was no help.

Yeah, its adjustable. Try turning it and see what it does.

Turn in clockwise count clicks,then turn out 1 click,1 out is max, 7 clicks is standard 16 clicks is minimum, hope this helps

This is just a guess but "f" probably stands for 'firm'

 

[yamerhead]

yes, f is firm

Is this also on the 05 Warrior?

Compression not rebound?

Ok, so if F is firm, S is soft, and we're talking compression, not rebound.
Right?
I think one thing that most of the Yami's could benefit from is a good rear shock with both compression and rebound damping. That way you don't get the slap in the but all the time.
Thanks for the info guys
