Adjusting Rear Spring
Pre-Load
Proper adjustment of rear spring pre-
load is necessary to get the most com-
fortable ride. The chart is designed to
help in setting up rear spring pre-load;
however, riding style is the single
greatest factor in determining rear
spring requirements.

NOTE: These cam position set-
tings are suggestions only. Per-
sonal
riding style will greatly
influence cam position settings.
Spend time to determine setting
preferences.
Rear spring pre-load adjustment is
accomplished by rotating the adjusting
cams. Position 3 provides the stiffest
ride, and position 1 is for the light
driver or slow-speed trail riding. Posi-
tion 2 is for the average operator under
normal conditions. Always rotate the
cam from the lighter position to the
heavier position.
741-450A
To rotate an adjusting cam, use the
spark plug wrench from the tool kit.
Rotate the wrench until the cam is in
the desired position. To stiffen the ride,
rotate the cam so as to raise the spring
end. Make the appropriate adjustment
on the other cam.
LIGHTS

taillight/brakelight LED, see the appro-
priate specifications sheet.
Removing and
Installing Taillight/
