I went down one line on the front and one notch up on the rear shocks. I had never adjusted this on any of my other machines, but with the CB, it really makes her handle like a dream. Here is link that really simplifies how preload works:

Now if Honda would only include the preload adjuster wrench in the toolkit instead of a tool everyone already owns like the Phillips screwdriver.......
After reading your post I got out the book and adjusted my rear springs and front forks and it did make a big difference. Went from 1 to 2 in the back and adjusted the forks from 5 to 3. The rear springs are tricky.
