The rebound damping adjuster is located at
the bottom of the rear suspension unit on the

To adjust the rebound damping setting,
rotate the adjuster clockwise to increase
rebound damping and counter-clockwise to

back from the fully clockwise (maximum)
position.
Note:

the factory with the rebound
adjuster set at one turn back from
maximum.

the right hand side of the motorcycle, at the
top of the rear suspension unit.
To adjust the spring pre-load setting rotate
the slotted adjuster clockwise to increase, or
counter-clockwise to decrease.
Note:
• The settings are measured by the
number of adjuster 'clicks' out
from the fully screwed in position.
• The motorcycle is delivered from
the factory with the spring
pre-load set to 16 'clicks' back
from the fully screwed in position.
