Keefer, they normaly sit 4 rings down from the top face of the yoke at the lower level. That is the outter edge of the clamp section. But give or take a gnats nacker, shouldn't make much difference I would have thought.

I didn't even look Keefer. 4 rings down to the top face of the top yoke.
It's std on all models and forks. Showa/ ohlins, not sure about ohlins R&T

Keefer, I run R&T's. From memory they run four rings, but I'll go and have a look tomorrow and get back to you. Might even be able to see it on the pics at www.jlawson.com/996

Top of the lower yoke, where the fork passes thru', to the top of the fork leg should be 244mm +/- 1mm.
Top of the fork leg is the spring cap, not the preload part.

When both legs are fitted, double check they are equal by laying a steel rule across the fork tops. You shouldn't see any daylight.
