Suspension settings/sticker

This has been bugging me for a while, the stickers aren't lined up the same on the fork nuts on one the arrow is lined up with the fat part, the other it is lined up with the skinny part. The bike rides well enough, but was just wondering if every ones is like this.

Mine aren't that uneven, but they aren't lined up or anything.

I was going to adjust them, but I'm not really sure what the sag should be.

i think they both should be aligned with the pin hole notches and adjusted from there to what kind of ride you want (hard or soft)

Uh....Guys, he's talking about the stickers on the fork nut not the adjustment nut itself.

I will take a look at mine after work.

That sticker will turn as you adjust preload.

Is this a serious question?

That sticker will rotate if you change the preload. Have you set up your front suspension for your weight yet? If not, do it....the orientation of the stickers doesn't matter at all. Adjust your preload and they will change.


I fell like I'm getting trolled.

I am talking about the sticker placement on the nut,

The stickers aren't consistently placed on the nut.

Added lines to show better what I am talking about

nuts face different directions but stickers face the same

It really doesn't matter...the nut can be turned...so the stickers might never line up.

But check your preload. That's how the sticker gets turned around. But again, it doesn't matter how the sticker is oriented if your preload is correct.

Make sense? I don't know how else to explain it, I'm sorry.
