SETTINGS AND ADJUSTMENTS
Shock absorber adjustment
The rear shock absorber must be adjusted to suit rider weight and terrain con-
ditions.
Proceed as follows:
1. With the bike resting on the ground, without rider, measure distance (A).
2. Sit on the motorcycle in normal riding position with full riding gear on.
3. Have someone else measure distance (A) again.
4. The difference between these two measurements is the distance the rear end
settles when the rider sits on the motorcycle (RIDER SAG). Recommended
lowering is 20 mm (0.79 in), with cold shock absorber.
5. To achieve correct rider sag for your weight, adjust the spring preload of the
shock absorber (see relevant paragraph).
B: panel retaining screw axis
C: rear wheel axle height
