Frequently Asked Questions
What is Frequency Sensing Technology and how does it work?

Can I adjust the preload myself?
Yes — the top-mount threaded preload adjuster twists by hand. No special tools or shop visit needed.
What's the difference between standard and heavy duty spring rates?
Heavy duty rates support more rider weight or cargo. Standard rates suit solo riders or lighter loads. Choose based on your typical riding setup.
