what are we really adjusting....which parts....the bottom rings or the top rings...does anyone have pics? of the lowest settings for front and back?

which to adjust?

This bottom part only (the BLACK RING) or the part where my THUMB is touching?





The orange rings.....?




What about the space between my two fingers?






What are the right adjustable height of the bottom black piece and the space with thread from orange rings? the displacements?

The orange rings you adjust so that the spring sits snug up against the top perch.

So push the spring up till it stops, and spin the upper orange ring till it touches the spring, now spin the bottom orange ring up till it meets the upper one. tighten the bottom ring to the top.
This is setting pre-load on the spring.

the bottom black ring, this is what is allowing your ride height to change. You spin the assembly (the threaded part that your fingers aren't touching) into the base piece (your thumb is touching). make sure you have the same amount of threads into the base, as its partner assembly (left and right must be equal). once you've gotten how low you want to go you snug the black ring down to the bottom piece to hold it in place. (finger to thumb)

sounds a bit confusing i know.
