Hi,

Can anyone answer a quick question ... when adjusting rebound/compression on my bike, should I actually HEAR clicks as I adjust?

Tks.

Probably.Should also be able to "feel" each adjustment as you go.Needs to be a quiet environment though.

Syer.

You can hear them and also feel them.

Couldn't swear to it, since its a long, long time since I had a Showa-shod 916, but from memory, I don't think the rear shock used to "click" but the forks certainly did.

Shakman,

On my Ohlins rear shock, you don't here clicks but do feel definite 'steps' in the movement as you turn the adjuster either way.

Tks all ... i have a 748S ... and on both front and back Showa I dont hear clicks but can feel a step, although on the front its not very easy to feel that either.
