In the video you are turning the screw clock wise which slowing down the damping so how is it making it quicker ? counter clockwise makes it faster . You turned the screw the wrong way . If you look just above the screw you will see a H on the right side and a L on the left side . Turning the screw to the H side or clock wise is reducing the damping making it slower to to rebound . On most shocks the manuals tell you to turn the damping screw all the way clock wise or to the H and then turn it back 3/4 turn . How is it possible when you turned the screw clock wise you got faster rebound ? Turning the screw clock wise keeps your wheel on the road longer so when you hit a bump instead of the tire being allowed to raise up freely to keep the bike from flying up into the air you are going to cause the bike to lift up off the ground . As far as I know all the damping screw when turned clock wise is slowing down the rebound not speeding it up like your showing it doing . If you were to keep turning it clock wise when you push down the seat it wouldn't come back up. Please correct me if I'm wrong .
So why would they have such a large range of adjustment for rebound. It should be as fast as possible. It's always adjusted at the least stiff end. Why would you want to crank it to nearly solid ever at all?
i have a 07 gsxr 1000 with lowering links..on certain uneven roads the back half is bouncing like a lowrider..i hate this and im sure its unsafe...i weigh 250lbs..do i need a new shock?or restore the bike to the original suspension?
"the criteria is to have a returning as quick as possible without having aftercycles". This is to remember!
I try to push down my bike but its really hard, i have adjust compression at softer mark.
This man know what he talking about.
That's how you do CPR to a bike
I dont have a bike, but this interesting. Should I make my car to have a faster rebound absorber too?
Nice video! Does the same apply to the front end too?? Thank you
👍👍. Thanks for the lesson. I just got my gixxer 750 and feel it’s stiff

My rear shocker makes a sound like compressed air release is it healthy ?
So why did the adjustment show the rebound adjuster being increased?
Does this apply to cars too? In theory
Is the rebound for every track should be like this?

Is Low compression high rebound possible with stock springs. Where the seat compresses very far but returns fast
very usefully thanks for sharing.
thanks for this video :)
Top vid thanks off to set up my 954 Blade :-)
f*##ing fantastic thanks Rob
Great!

Wish cars had a damping adjuster screw like that....
TRUTH SEEKER they do just need coil overs but it’s not necessarily a screw
Powered by honda but the bike is beautiful R6 -_-

Yes it does
