REAR SUSPENSION
The rear suspension consists of a hydrau-
lic shock absorber - spring unit, which is
mounted to the frame with a uniball, and to
the swinging arm by means of a system of
levers.
The ride height of the rear of the vehicle
can be set using the spring preload adju-
sting ring nut (1) and locking ring nut (2).
The rear suspension can be tuned by adju-
sting the extension damping with a ring nut
adjuster (3), the damping on compression
can be adjusted by a knob (4).
NOTE
It is possible to adjust the rear ri-
de height in order to suit your preference.
ADJUSTING
THE REAR SHOCK ABSORBER
NOTE
Check and, if necessary, adjust
the rear shock absorber every 9,350 mi
(15,000 km). If the vehicle is used in any
kind of competition or on unpaved roads,
carry out this check at one-half of this inter-
val.
The rear shock absorber’s factory setting
are satisfactory for most race tracks.
However, it is possible to tune the suspen-
sion to your preference by using the above
mentioned adjustments.
When adjusting the rear shock absorb-
er, always start from the stiffest posi-
tion. This is the fully clockwise position
of the extension damper adjusting ring
nut (3) and the compression damper
knob (4).
Do not rotate the extension damper
adjustment ring nut (3) beyond its limit,
this will damage the screw and destroy
your shock absorber.
Always make sure, when adjusting ring
nut (3), that it clicks in to an adjustment
notch, and is not at a position interme-
diate between adjustment notches.
Working from the left side of the vehi-
cle:
◆
Loosen the locking ring nut (2) by means
of the appropriate spanner wrench.
◆
Adjust the ring nut (1) to adjust the spring
preload (A) (see table p. 103).
After the adjustment:
◆
Hold the ring nut (1) from rotating with
the appropriate spanner wrench and ti-
ghten the locking ring nut (2) by means
of the appropriate spanner wrench.
◆
Adjust the ring nut (3) to adjust the
hydraulic damping on extension (see ta-
ble on p. 103).
◆
Adjust the knob (4) to adjust the hydrau-
lic damping on compression (see table
on p. 103).
To change the rear ride height, proceed
as follows:
◆
Slightly loosen the lock nut (5).
◆
Turn the adjuster (6) to change the ove-
rall length of the rear suspension shock
absorber (distance between center lines)
(B) (see table on p. 103).
After the adjustment:
The lock nut (5) must be tightened to its
appropriate tightening torque.
