Front fork adjustment
The front fork used on this motorcycle has rebound
(return), compression and spring preload
adjustment.
It is possible to adjust the spring preload on both
legs whereas compression and rebound can only be
adjusted on the LH and RH legs, respectively.
Adjustment is done by external screw adjusters:
1) for rebound adjustment;
2) to adjust the preload of the inner springs;
3) to adjust the compression damping.
Position the motorcycle on its side stand so that it is
stable. Turn the adjuster (1) at the top end of the RH
fork leg with a suitable screwdriver to adjust rebound
damping. Turn adjuster (3) at the top end of the LH
fork leg with a screwdriver to adjust compression. By
turning adjuster screws (1) and (3) you will hear some
clicks; each click corresponds to a damping setting.
The stiffest damping setting is obtained with the
adjuster turned fully clockwise to the "0" position.
By turning counter clockwise starting from this
position, count the clicks that will correspond to
positions "1", "2" etc.
STANDARD settings are as follows:
●
compression on LH fork leg: - 2 turns from fully
closed (total is 4 full turns);
●
rebound on RH fork leg: - 2.5 turns from fully
closed (total is 4 full turns);
●
spring preload: + 5 turns from fully
uncompressed (1mm (0.04in) preload for each
complete turn clockwise from the reference; for
a total of 10mm (0.4 in)).
To change preload of the spring inside each fork leg,
turn adjuster (2) with a 17 mm (0.67 in) hexagon
wrench, completely counter clockwise, to obtain fully
uncompressed position. From this position, adjust
