[Pursuvant 173]

Post your Ohlins setup and settings results in here. If you run a mixed Ohlins plus other mfgs, you can drop em here too, but try to make your hardware clear & easy to find...

@@@@@@@@@@@
STX-46
preload: 19mm (my OS) (SAG w/rider & gear = 35mm)
rebound: 11 clicks
0 "clicks" is fully closed
Preload measure is shock body threads exposed (measured from locking ring).

NIX-22
preload: (SAG w/rider & gear = 35mm)
comp (left leg): 6 clicks
rebound (right leg): 5 clicks
0 "clicks" is fully closed
*Preload is determined by SAG w/rider/gear. (SAG w/rider & gear = 35mm)

Results: Firm, aggressive street settings. This is my Street Sport settings. The suspension swallows significant events and returns to planted confidence with no bounce. There is no front end dive when braking, the valving solved it.

@@@@@@@@@@@
STX-46
preload: 19mm (my OS) minus 3 turns
rebound: 11 clicks
*OS are my original settings

Results: Softer relaxed setup for comfort cruising/touring. Just back off 3 complete turns of preload from my OS. You don't need to change NIX-22, it has broad capability. Lowering the STX preload has a significant effect on comfort, I use it for relaxed cruising & exploring rough county roads. Bike remains as always, planted and confident.
