Stuck rebound adjuster
The rebound adjuster on my rear damper is completly stuck, any ideas how to get it turnable? Could a nut be MIG-welded on it to get better turning force, or will that melt down some internal o-rings?
I have heard of other members complaining about the same thing. What if you spray it down with penetrating oil, something like liquid wrench? I bet they get corroded and sand also gets in them.

Please don´t think I´m rude R1000 but can you be turning the wrong screw? There is many to choose from down there :-)

I've also tried WD40 and oil for automatic transmission to penetrate a week without sucess [
]The chassi behaves fine even though it appears to almost have no return damping, so I can just leave it as is.
If you're not riding the bike for a while and if you can get at the screw - get yourself some blu tac and build it up under the screw so you've got a little depression to fill with wd40. The screw should be submerged as much as possible in the wd and that should hopefully penetrate it.
