Best way to adjust your suspension is to find the biggest jump or obstacle you will hit and adjust your suspension until you bottom out slightly. If you go too soft you will get some body roll when you corner hard. I don't think you will blow out the shocks by having them too soft. I have been told that you should never have it on the softest setting though. You should always be at least 2 clicks from the softest or hardest setting.
