setting the rear shock to a higher number makes it stiffer and as a result raises the back end of the bike a bit. In doing that, the front end (forks) get steeper and that allows the bike to turn a bit quicker.

I'm assuming TNG was feeling like the bike wouldn't turn, so raising the rear end preload helped her bike turn quicker and resulted in it being a bit more responsive to rider input in the turns.
