Shock absorber adjusters
(fig. 54 and fig. 55)
The shock absorber has external adjusters that enable you to
adjust the suspension to suit the load on the motorcycle.
Adjuster (1), located on the left-hand side at the point at which
the shock absorber is fixed to the swingarm, controls rebound
damping.
The adjuster (2) on the shock absorber reservoir controls
compression damping.
Turn the adjusters (1 and 2) clockwise to stiffen the damping
or anti-clockwise to soften it.
(1198)
STANDARD setting:
from the fully closed position (turned fully clockwise), unscrew:
adjuster (1) by 2 turns;
adjuster (2) by 2 turns.
Spring preload: 28 mm.
(1198S)
STANDARD setting:
from the fully closed position (turned fully clockwise), unscrew:
adjuster (1) by 10 clicks;

The two nuts (3) on the upper part of the shock absorber
serve to adjust the preload on the external spring. To
