Fork/shock absorber
100532-10
The fork and the shock absorber offer many options of adapting the suspension to your rid-
ing style and the payload.
Info
To help you adapt the vehicle, we have summarized our findings in Table

. You
can find the table under the seat.
These adjustments should be understood as a guideline and should always be the basis of
your own personal suspension adaptation. Do not change the adjustments at random or by
more than ± 40%, since otherwise the riding characteristics could deteriorate, particularly
at high speeds.
