Can of worms duly opened!

Right, with the help of Mrs BRD & daughter I have the following measurements:

R1 = 571mm, R2 = 560mm, so static sag is 11mm
R3 = 530 so sag with rider onboard is 41mm which is 1mm outside of the Ohlins parameters so I conclude that the spring is just over the limit for my bulk. Do you agree?

If I reduce the preload slightly, will the R1 figure increase slightly because the rear wheel will drop or have I got that completely wrong?
