ive got a 290 2010 bike and im wanting to know how to adjust the forks, ie what does what on top of the fork legs. any helps appreciated thanks

The left fork contains the spring. You can turn the adjuster in(right ) to cam it up a bit and add some preload if a heavy rider, few do it seems, as they seem ok set back to standard.

The right side contains the fluid dampner unit. It will screw in(right) about 30 clicks or so to increase damping. To be honest, I am not sure if it effects compression and rebound, but deff seems to effect rebound. I run mine all the way out, then add three clicks IN from the starting position for a fairly quick action. Same as with the shock.

Anything else will be to personal taste and your weight, find your happy spot by trying adjustments if you like to play, but I have not toutched mine in years. Set it and forget it, seem fine.

Hope that helps! ^_^
