As with all things suspension, make sure everything is at stock settings to begin with so you know where you're working from. Preload, damping etc.

Now l understand Lowering the rear wheel.

Mine has quite a bit of clearance below the rear wheel.

So this seems to make sense,as mine needs a bit of persuading, to turn in.
