rear suspension

[Bluehaze]

Is there any test that i can do on my own to ensure that my rear shocks are working properly?  anything i need to be looking for?   Going over a speed bump.. is there supposed to be difference?    How do i know whether i should be at number 1 or number 4.    I am going to install a GSXR shocks and just want to make sure that  I set it to the correct settings.

ride it, adjusting the compression and rebound until it rides the way you want it to.  then your good to go.
