Default new 636 suspension settings

this might be a silly question for most.
does a brand new bike from factory come with all suspension adjustments set at exact MEDIUM settings or do we need to play with the settings find the medium point??

you need to play with the settings to find whats comfortable to you. not sure on the exact clicker locations but the manuel says for a 150lb rider, how he rides, who knows. do a search on suspension set up and check out the links in that thread, o hell im bored brb

check this out. there might be another adjustment at the top of the shock, but these are the most common. youll see little flat head screws on the shock itself with little arrows on it.
