Thanks GT. I think you might be right on the money. Last ride I was adding more rebound control and I think I might be down to about 8 clicks out now. I'm always worried about it packing down though. I don't know exactly what Marty at Ohlins did but I told him my symptoms. Its definitely a bit better than it was but still a bit more room for improvement.
Originally I felt it was a compression issue as it would feel like the back wheel just couldn't react fast enough to a stray rock/square edge and would deflect instead of soaking up. Now I think its soaking things up a bit better. As I'm using more travel I think I'm needing a bit more rebound control to hold it together. My thinking is that because its handling better when hitting it rear wheel first that its taking more impact and thus using more compression, where if its a front wheel impact and then back its not reacting fast enough in the HSC. I could be way wrong too. I'm not really switched on when it comes to these things.
