The [https://www.st-owners.com/forums/attachments/maintenance-items-needed-for-a-new-old-bike-13-pdf.285694/ Maintenance Items Needed for a New (old) Bike] document from the ST-Owners forum says:

Check the rear shock preload adjuster.

<blockquote> While not described in the Honda
Service Manual, the preload adjuster is most likely low on fluid and is not
working properly. After unscrewing the knob all the way, if resistance is not
felt within two clicks, fluid needs to be added. This is discussed in several
threads.</blockquote>

==Preload==
* light jack oil or fork oil
* 36 clicks 180 degrees per click
