Awesome KWs

First Kw v3 external controls for dampening and compression are great and easy to use, just with a turn of a wheel or knob. I had a pair of secondhand installed, but wasn't sure on settings. If the compression adjustment wheel at the bottom of the strut was set to "0" does that mean it was set to the most stiff setting?

I turned 2 clicks towards softer side on front and one click on rear to see results.

Your right, I just got lucky a local shop owner owns a 235 track car and switched to Ohlins.
