I am guessing Cannibal or Speed Ohlins shocks? I think they adjust with the normal pre-load adjustment spanner wrench style, right? See where that is adjusted to and go softer (less tension on the spring) and see what that does for ya.

There's very little adjustment available with these shocks.
At the top of the spring, there is 2 large collars which can be turned 3 times...
Soft, Medium and Hard.
There is a special tool for doing this but if you think wisely you may find another way
