If you want to use a different rear shock model than
the one originally on the bike, please make sure that
the shock will not damage the frame.
Please follow the instruction below:
Please make sure that the rear shock or its accessory
parts do not touch the frame when mounting or sus-
pending.
For doing so remove the coil, install the shock and com-
press the shock completely.
If the shock touches the frame while doing so do not
use this shock in order to avoid damage to frame, swin-
garm or shock.
Please check this issue on all travel adjustment
options.
SET-UP OF OTHER SHOCK
MODELS
After a dismantlement of the rear shock, the front
fixing bolt on the mainframe of the rear shock
should be tightened with a tightening torque of
14 Nm, the rear shock fixing bolt on the swingarm
with 10 Nm.
If this is not done correctly the rear shock can be
damaged.
