Damping
Setting
Damping must be adapted to suit
the surface on which the motor-
cycle is ridden and to suit spring
preload.
An uneven surface requires
softer damping than a smooth
surface.
An increase in spring preload
requires firmer damping, a re-
duction in spring preload re-
quires softer damping.
Adjusting damping for
rear wheel
Make sure the ground is level
and firm and place the motor-
cycle on its stand.
Adjust the damping character-
istic, using the tool from the
on-board toolkit to turn adjust-
ing screw
