Front fork adjusters
The front fork used has rebound and compression
damping adjuster as well as a spring preload adjuster.
This adjustment is done using the outer adjusters:
1) to adjust rebound damping (fig.30);
2) to adjust inner springs preload (fig. 30);
3) to adjust compression damping (fig. 31).
Make sure the vehicle is stable, on the side stand.
Use a flat screwdriver to turn adjuster (1), at the top of
every fork leg, and change rebound damping.
Use a flat screwdriver to turn adjuster (3), at the back of
wheel shaft pinch bolts, and change compression
damping.
Adjuster (1) has click settings, every click corresponds to a
different damping setting. Adjuster (3) is a screw so
damping variation is continuous. Completely tighten the
adjuster to reach "0" position, corresponding to max
damping. Starting from this position, turn counter
clockwise and count the clicks - which correspond to
position "1", "2", etc. - or measure the angular rotation of
the adjuster.
