Speed Merchant fork preload adjusters.
Recieved and installed my Speed Merchant preload adjusters. I removed 1/2 inch off of the spacers in my forks before installing them. That worked out about perfect, since my final adustment has the adjusment bolt about in the center.
I was on the fence about these, since they are alittle pricey for something thats once its dialed in, will probably never get moved again. But im glade I bought them, seems to be a very well made product.
Not to mention, they look alot better than the oem caps also.

About $140.00
Offers 1 inch of adjustment.
Different finishes available...there is silver not sure if there is chrome.
One thing I did not see is how the adjuster contacts the spring.
Does it sit/ apply pressure above a washer (with a hole in the center of the washer and how big of hole or a solid washer) or what other connector/ contact area to the spring?
Nice mod, but I agree fairly expensive for what they do as compared to experimenting with spacer inserts.
Still a desirable mod...at least to me.
