I'd highly recomend the Kyle preload adjusters, I've used them on last 2 bikes & love them. Dan & his staff are excellent to work with, do follow-up, and service is great. Pics of mine on 02 below.

Why? Adjust it once to the correct peload and leave it there. Some tard is likely to wander over one day when you aren't looking, thinking, 'hmmm, what's this do?', and turn the sucker....

I though about getting some just to add to the poser factor but decided against it. I will just use a socket, adjust them and leave them be :)

I thought having preload adjusters would be a way to save time, but I'm starting to think they are more of a cosmetic mod than anything.
I have a pair, but when I adjust my suspension I have to take them off and use tools. :lol Those things are a pain in the ass to turn without hurting your fingers!!
