Suspension setup according to track condition
Following are a few guidelines to find the right suspension setup
for different types of terrain. Always start from the suspensions standard set-
ting before making any change. Afterwards, increase or decrease the adjusting
clicks, one at a time.
HARD GROUND
Front fork: softer compression setting.
Shock absorber: softer compression setting.
For fast tracks, a softer compression and rebound setting both front and rear
will give more grip.
SANDY GROUND
Front fork: set compression harder, or replace the standard spring with a harder
spring and set the compression softer and the rebound harder.
Shock absorber: harder compression, and especially harder rebound settings.
Work on the spring preload to lower the motorcycle riding height (rear end).
MUDDY GROUND
Front fork: set compression harder, or replace the standard spring with a harder
spring.
Shock absorber: harder compression and rebound settings
or replace the standard spring with a harder spring. Work on the spring preload
to lift the motorcycle riding height (rear end). Changing the springs front and
rear is advised in order to compensate for increased motorcycle weight due to
caked-on mud.
NOTES
If the fork remains too soft or too hard no matter what setting you choose,
check oil level in the fork tubes, as it might be too low
or too high. Remember that the more oil you add, the more frequently you will
need to bleed the forks. If changes to suspension settings take no effect, check
the adjuster assemblies, as they might be stuck.
Standard settings, available replacement springs and adjusting procedures are
outlined in the following pages.
