Damping
Setting
Damping must be adjusted to the
road conditions and the spring
preload.
A rough road surface requires
softer damping than a smooth
road surface.
An increase in spring preload
requires firmer damping, a re-
duction in spring preload re-
quires softer damping.
Adjusting damping on rear
wheel
Park motorcycle, ensuring that
support surface is firm and
level.
CAUTION
Adjust spring strut damping
with hot muffler.
Burn hazard
Allow the muffler to cool
down.
CAUTION
Work with warmed/hot com-
ponents.
