10 TUNING THE CHASSIS
65
10.1 Fork/shock absorber
C00380-10
The fork and the shock absorber offer many options of adapting the suspension to your rid-
ing style and the payload.
Info
To help you adapt the vehicle, we have summarized our findings in Table
1
. You
can find the table on the air filter box after you remove the seat. In all settings
except for the spring preload of the shock absorber, the value is adjusted by first
turning the screw all the way in and then setting the value. Do not use excessive
force to turn the adjusting screws against the stop, and take the last perceptible
click as the end position.
These adjustments should be understood as a guideline and should always be the basis of
your own personal chassis adaptation. Do not change the adjustments at random or by more
than ±40%, since otherwise the riding characteristics could deteriorate, particularly at high
speeds.
10.2 Adjusting the compression damping of the fork
Info
The hydraulic compression damping determines the fork suspension behavior.
An optimally adjusted compression damping ensures that the fork does not compress too far and fast when you brake hard or when
the load shifts very fast. It gives the rider good feedback about the road conditions.
