So what tool should be used on the front fork preload adjusters? I tried a quarter and it seemed to work ok, but certainly there is a tool, right? Service manual says nothing in section 13-10.

To answer any future questions, I know jack piss about ... well anything really.

I too wondered this...not crazy about scratching it with flat head screwdriver
They are called star or torx bits and come in a variety of sizes. I dont remember the exact size off the top of my head but it's something like a T45 or T50. I know this set has the right size.
