I think the V2's are a koni insert inside the damper so possibly not much difference between what you have now.

Try going back to fully soft and working your way up one click at a time. The rear koni have to be compressed and the mechanism engaged to adjust them, I found about 3/4 of a turn was a good setting on them.
