Re: [ST] Racetech adjustment (was Digest vs. Email)

[George Chacko <chackoge@xxxxxxxxx>]

As far as I know (I could be completely wrong) you only get to adjust  
damping if you have the emulators. You adjust them and drop  them in  
the tubes and that's it. You can readjust them when you change the  
fork oil. In my case, I only added springs so all I can adjust is  
preload. I'm copying this message to Jean-Louis who had both  
emulators and springs on his '98 Sprint. GC
