Spring preload
Adjusting spring preload
for rear wheel
You must adjust spring
preload to suit the load on the
motorcycle. Increase spring
preload when the motorcycle
is heavily loaded and reduce
spring preload accordingly
when the motorcycle is lightly
loaded.
• Make sure the ground is
level and firm and place the
motorcycle on its stand.
To increase spring preload:
• Turn knob
1 in the direction
indicated by the HIGH arrow.
To decrease spring preload:
• Turn knob
1 in the direction
indicated by the LOW arrow.
Basic setting for one-up riding:
• Set the knob to the "STD"
mark on the scale at the side
(red dots).
This is the basic setting
for a motorcycle carrying
a full load of fuel and a rider
weighing 85 kg.
c
Your motorcycle's han-
dling will suffer if you do
not match the spring-preload
and damping-characteristic
settings.
Adjust the damping character-
istic to suit spring preload.
c
Shock absorbers
Adjusting rear shock
absorber
You must adjust the damping
characteristic to suit spring
preload. An increase in spring
preload requires firmer damp-
ing, a reduction in spring
preload requires softer damp-
ing.
• Make sure the ground is
level and firm and place the
motorcycle on its stand.
