Rebound Damping Adjustment -
Tiger 800XC models only
1. Rebound damping adjuster
The rebound damping adjuster is located at
the bottom of the rear suspension unit and is
accessible from either side of the motorcycle.
To adjust the rebound damping setting,
rotate the slotted adjuster clockwise to
increase, and anti-clockwise to decrease.
Note:
•
The setting is measured as the
number of adjuster turns anti-
clockwise from the fully clockwise
(hardest) position.
•
The Tiger 800XC is delivered from
the factory with the rebound
adjuster set to 1.5 turns
anti-clockwise from the fully
clockwise position.
Tyres
Typical Tyre Marking
Tiger 800XC models are fitted with spoked
wheels which require a tyre suitable for use
with an inner tube.
Tiger 800 models are equipped with tubeless
tyres, valves and wheel rims. Use only tyres
marked 'TUBELESS' and tubeless valves on
rims marked 'SUITABLE FOR TUBELESS
TYRES'.

Warning
Failure to use an inner tube in a spoked
wheel will cause deflation of the tyre
resulting in loss of motorcycle control and
an accident.
