Clickers on the 2012 300R forks...

[myrcrocks]

I don't have a manual yet for my bike (2012 300 Race)...
Can somebody explain to me which clickers are which on these forks?
Thanks in advance!

48mm Closed Chamber. Compression on the top. Rebound on the bottom. No idea what stock settings are. I'd start in the middle and adjust as required.

Thanks guys... The front end is pushing in tuns, so I was going to back off the rebound a couple of clicks to try it... Rebound adjustment was at the top of the fork on my Husaberg... I figured it was at the bottom on the Gasser, but I wasn't positive.
I was surprised that there was no cap on the bottom of the fork legs to keep trail trash out of the adjusters though...
Should there be?

If its pushing, you don't want to back off rebound, you want to try adding more. Its been noted that these forks may be a little light on rebound valving, but thats only one of several things that could be causing the problem.

Yep! Turn the clickers in.. Add rebound damping.. Slow the rebound action..

Its the terminology that gets me. If you add too much it'll start to tuck in on corners.

I curerntly have my 12' fork set at 20 comp, 15 reb and 1 pfp, i will go to 2 pfp before this weekends ride.

I set rear shock preload at 9mm, this put me in the correct sag range. Is the little 3mm allen bolt on the bottom of the Ohlins the rebound adjustment? I need to slow the rebound down on the shock. If it is the rebound I am assuming clicks in, is the way I want to go???

Yep and yep! Its a pain to get to with the allen key but thats the rebound and in will slow it.

Thanks Jakobi, ohlins must have changed it or the new linkage geometry allows for easier access. It's parallel to the lower shock bolt and very easy to get too.
