well you can start w/ the compression adjustment screw thats on the ressie start w/ 2 clicks at a time and feel the differance w/ a quick ride if its still too soft increase the incriments if you have that screw maxed out back it off to the most outward position counterclockwise then adjust the shock spring clamps lossen the top nut then turn the bottom nut downward this will put more tension on the spring making it harder id say start w/5 turns or so feel it and also this w/combination of compression adjustment you should be able to find a happy medium it does take a little time to get them dialed in but it can be done!
