if you are adding more weight to the bike ,say another rider.. which way should you turn the rings on the rear shock
should they be turned up or down?
I don't know how your shock is configured zigactly. You want to turn the rings so that the spring compresses more. A lot more for a passenger. You should be able to see which way the threads go. Though to be honest, unless it's a really long trip, changing the preload on the rear by banging on the rings is probably more hassle than its worth. Just my 2 cents.

yea seems that way, thank you for teh help
if your bike has a shock adjuster, tighten it up for short rides should be sufficient.
