Yes, Slacker works on most street, adventure and off-road bikes with steel axles up to 1" in diameter. Slacker uses a very strong 1" magnet to attach to the axle. The only limitations are dual exhaust and some saddlebags that block the tool from being placed on the axle or block the path for the retractable cable.

For average riders we recommend checking it every 2-3 rides and any time you change tires or chain and sprockets. For professional riders it should be checked every ride.
The more sag you have, the more stable the bike will be at speed but it will steer poorly since the fork will be raked out more. The less sag you have the better the bike will steer but it will not be stable at speed. Always try to find the sweet spot in the middle to get the best performance for the specific conditions.
Static sag is the amount the bike sags under its own weight, with no rider mounted. Once you get the bike adjusted for the rider this number will tell you if you have the correct spring rates installed. Too much static sag means your spring is too heavy and didn't require enough preload when adjusted for the riders weight. Not enough static sag means the spring is insufficient and required an excessive amount of spring preload when adjusted for the riders weight.

Too much free sag means your spring is too heavy and didn't require enough preload when adjusted for the riders weight. Not enough free sag means the spring is insufficient and required an excessive amount of spring preload when adjusted for the riders weight.
For average riders we recommend checking it every 2-3 rides and any time you change loads or add a passenger. For adventure bikes it is very important for safety to always consider the load to make sure the preload is adjusted correctly.

Too much static sag means your spring is too heavy and didn't require enough preload when adjusted for the riders weight. Not enough static sag means the spring is insufficient and required an excessive amount of spring preload when adjusted for the riders weight. For ADV bikes we recommend sizing the spring for whatever your typical load is. If you base the spring rate on an unloaded bike you will end up having to run excessive preload when you add cargo or add a passenger.
Pretty much every manufacturer says every ride and we agree. Air shocks can bleed during your ride and when the bike is sitting. You may also have more gear on or more water and supplies in your pack.
