Finally got around to doing this. Been having bottoming issues since I bought the bike, especially when going in or out of my driveway. The whole thing took about 15 minutes, including reading the procedure several times. All I can say is WOW!!!!! I only had about 1/3 of the adjustment available (maybe less). After adding jack oil and "burping" the line, I only had to turn about 1 click before I felt resistance. Vianca no longer bottoms out going in or out of the driveway. If you haven't done this, It's probably the best 15 minutes you'll spend on maintenance on the bike. I now run with the adjuster at the Std position when one up. I'm 6'1" and 270#. Since doing this, haven't bottomed out once, even with the Illumaworks foot on the side stand. That used to scrape all the time, I just figured I'd eventually wear it down enough to not scrape. Once again this site has the best info on making the LT even better than Germany made it. Thanks guys.
