Do not subject the shock absorber as-
semblies to an open flame or other high
heat source. This may cause the unit to
explode due to excessive gas pressure.
Do not deform or damage the cylinders
in any way. Cylinder damage will result in
poor damping performance.
Do not dispose of a damaged or worn
out shock absorber assembly yourself.
Take the shock absorber assembly to a
Yamaha dealer for any service.

Rear shock absorbers
The rear shock absorber assemblies are
equipped with a spring preload adjusting nut,
a rebound damping force adjusting screw, a
fast compression damping force adjusting
bolt, and a slow compression damping force
adjusting screw.
WARNING
EWB02492
Suspension components become hot
during operation. Never touch the com-
pression damping force adjusting bolt
and screw, the rebound damping force
adjusting screw or the oil reservoir with
your bare hand or skin until suspension
components have cooled.
Always adjust the shock absorber as-
semblies on the left and right side to the
same setting. Uneven adjustment can
cause poor handling and loss of stability,
which could lead to an accident.
NOTICE
ECB00091
Never turn an adjusting mechanism be-
yond the minimum and maximum settings.
TIP
When turning a damping force adjuster in
direction (a), the 0 click position and the 1
click position may be the same.
