Where did you get them from?
Normally the suppliers of these units should give you some idea of what to expect and what adjustments are needed. Things like your weight and style of riding should have been taken into consideration when selecting the right spring for the front and the rear. From that point on the knowledgeable suspension dealer would have been able to give a base line set-up to start off with (if not give THE set-up that was perfect from the word go).
Sounds like the rear is too soft....thats either the spring is too weak for your weight/bike or the pre-load needs to be wound up some.
Do static sag first, BACK OFF the damper compression and rebound screws then with that done jump on suited and booted with helmet on as well, complete next check for sag with you on board...aim for no more than 25-30mm sag at each end.
Sag set you next need to arrive at a compression and rebound damping setting. DO EVERYTHING ONE CLICK AT A TIME FROM HERE ON.
Start by concentrating on the front compression, ride along a straight quiet road and gently apply the front brake a few times and notice how quick the front dives....make a click adjustment to the compression damping screw and repeat until you are relatively happy with a nice controlled and gentle progressive dip in the front suspension. The wat the forks rebound ...return will be checked by the rebound setting which you can repeat as for the compression set-up.
Now that the front is part way there you must now turn to the rear unit. You want to throw weight onto the front to improve cornering and stability, this will be affected by your riding style position. Repeat the same steps as for the front but now you really need to find a road with some bumps in it (not too big just enough to get the suspension earning its keep. Carry on and adjust ONE CLICK AT A TIME and experiment with compression first then move to rebound.
You wil have to try and get to grips with an unsettled ride whilst doing this but eventually it will all make sense and your bike should handle much better.
The whole point about upgraded suspension is in the case of Ohlins that the internals are more accurately made and mated/fininshed with a greater range of adjustments finer control over the units action with the spring and the rest of the bike.
If all else fails try contacting Ohlins they have a very good web site...Google and then Olhins should find it for you.
Have fun, good luck and I hope this little piece has helped you, theres nothing better than getting it right for your self
