SUSPENSION PRE-LOAD ADJUSTMENTS
Your Janus features adjustable pre-load settings for both front and
rear suspension. There are three available settings. The motorcycle
will arrive with the standard setting in the lowest (1st) pre-load setting.
The standard shock absorber suspension pre-load settings provide
good handling characteristics for general, riding with a solo rider of
average weight. They can be adjusted for heavier riders or riding with
a passenger.
See the table for for suggested preload settings.
To change the suspension pre-load settings, insert the included shock
absorber tool into the lower spring collar. Turn clock-wise to increase
spring pre-load and counterclock-wise to reduce spring pre-load. As
you turn, the adjuster will click into the three available settings.
WARNING: Make sure that the adjusters are set to the same setting
on both left and right shock absorbers. Settings which vary from
left to right may affect handling and stability potentially resulting
in loss of control and an accident.
WARNING: Make sure that the proper balance between front
and rear suspension pre-load settings is maintained. Suspension
imbalance can drastically change the handling characteristics of
the motorcycle leading to loss of control and an accident. Consult
the suspension pre-load chart for suggested settings.
