Once the desired spring preload has been set, re-tighten the
upper lock nut.
Warning
Use a pin wrench to turn the preload adjusting nut. Take
special care when turning the nut, to avoid injuring your hand
by striking it violently against other parts of the motorcycle if
the wrench suddenly slips off the nut while turning.
Warning
The shock absorber is filled with gas under pressure
and may cause severe damage if taken apart by unskilled
persons.
If you plan to carry luggage, adjust the rear shock absorber
spring load to the maximum setting to improve the
handling characteristics of the motorcycle and to avoid the
possibility of ground contact. It may also be necessary to
adjust the rebound damping accordingly.
