Did you get it measured and set up for you? I find it hard to believe that someone like you who's 190-200 lbs would only need 1 turn on the preload. Seems like it would cause the suspension to "top out" over bumps and whenever you power out of turns.

Which is because either it's topping out, or there's too much high-speed damping.
