Preload on both of those is spring only bud, I notice that the adjuster rings are at the top (see previous post) & also I honestly doubt you will get any improvement atall from the second set given in the data the last line is ....
"SHOCK ABSORBER HARDNESS: Soft"
To get adjustable damping I think your options will be reduced to either Hagon or that posh French firm whose name eludes me at the moment

Re: Unimpressive purchase
Thanks, I think they do one that definately is on for about £350 I think.
Not sure what hagons are cost wise.
There is a chinese make for £135 with it on, but chinese metal !!!!
Thats a lot of weight bouncing around on old can metal etc.
Looking at a year old chinese 125 locally that looks as if its sat in a field for 20 years or more.
Best Mark.
Ikons, were koni`s are about £330 but the damping adjusment is at the top. The chinese ones it at the bottom.

Probably better to go for those.
I think Bitubo or Ohlins are going to be well nutty.

Re: Unimpressive purchase
IIRC, Ohlins dropped the silverwing from it's range a while ago, maybe look for NOS
