REAR SUSPENSION
Workshop Manual Ed. 07-2012
Rear suspension
The rising-rate rear suspension is made up of a shock absorber, a linkage system
and a swinging arm. The spring preload of the shock absorber can be adjusted
to suit riding and terrain conditions. Hydraulic damping is also adjustable using
outer adjuster screws. Periodically check all components for wear.
Rear shock absorber removal
Set a block under the engine and see that the rear wheel is lifted from the ground.
Remove saddle, side panels, silencer and rear chassis (see Section "E" - General
Procedures). Loosen the front clamp (1) of the intake coupling.
Remove the front bolt (2) securing the suspension linkage to the chassis, the
bottom (3) and top (4) shock absorber mounting bolts and remove the shock
absorber (5).
IMPORTANT: On assembly, fit the bottom locking nut (3) of the shock absorber
on the LEFT SIDE.
