I have a 2014 vstrom
Is there any other adjustment I can do apart from the pre load?

My wee had a rebound damping adjustment screw at the bottom of the unit. Can't see why the later bikes shouldn't be the same.

Thanks for that
One of the blokes I was out with today was saying about it.
Will try and have a play with it

Which way do you turn it to make it harder?

H for Harder
S for softer

Owners manual has instructions for it.
Small changes can make a big difference.
