Kat Shock Blown?

[stockstang]

Ok I just installed my 96 Kat 600 shock and dissapointingly enough I think it maybe blown. When I bounce on the bike the shock makes a lot of swishy wishy sounds. Is this normal or what? I must say it is a drastic improvement over the stock blown GS. At 185 what kind of preload rebound setting should I be dialed in at?

If it pogo its blown ... and yes I blew mine. Bouncy bouncy ...
Cool.

So should there be any sound coming from the shock or should it be quiet?

Mine make a swishy swishy sound and I dont think it blown

If you crank up the dampening what happens, does it get super stiff and make dampening like you cant move it barely?
