    Default Can these shocks be adjusted?

    Dumb question. Can these front shocks be adjusted? I’m swapping in the bajaron bar and wanted to stiffen the shocks while I had it jacked up. If so, which way do I turn on the top to stiffen? Is it counterclock wise? I don’t see any markers on it.

    Yes .. Lift the wheel off the ground to take off load pressure. You'll need a shock spanner wrench. Rotate the bottom collar counter clockwise to separate. Then tighten up the top collar. Make sure to keep track of rotations to due the same for the other side. Only do a few turns at time to experiment. It makes things a touch stiffer, but also will slightly increase your ride height. Baby steps.
