Motorcycle Preload at Curtis Carr blog

Motorcycle Preload. A proper suspension setup starts with properly set ride sag. Setting the sag allows the bike to have the correct compromise for dealing with both bumps and holes. Part 3 of our motorcycle suspension series takes a look at preload, what it does, and what happens to the bike when we make preload adjustments. To determine preload, you want to take measurements of the length of the fully extended suspension, the length when the suspension is at. This ensures that the bike can handle heavier loads without sacrificing stability and performance on the road. Ride sag is the amount of “sag” or compression of the shock(s) that occurs when under load from the normal weight of the rider(s), gear and whatever weight is on the bike while riding. Preload tuning is essential for achieving the correct motorcycle suspension setup. Preload alters how much force it takes to initiate suspension motion. Motorcycle suspension springs are designed so that they’re always under compression—and how much compression is a. What preload does and doesn't do. More force will be needed to compress the spring, making it harder for. More preload makes the bike sit higher. By adjusting the preload on the front and rear shocks, riders can optimize the load capacity of their motorcycle.
