10.5 Compression damping of the shock absorber
C00378-01
The compression damping of the shock absorber is divided into two ranges: high-speed and
low-speed.
High-speed and low-speed refer to the compression speed of the rear wheel suspension and
not to the vehicle speed.
The high-speed setting, for example, has an effect on the landing after a jump: the rear
wheel suspension compresses more quickly.
The low-speed setting, for example, has an effect when riding over long ground swells: the
rear wheel suspension compresses more slowly.
These two ranges can be adjusted separately, although the transition between high-speed
and low-speed is gradual. Thus, changes in the high-speed range affect the compression
damping in the low-speed range and vice versa.
10.6 Adjusting the low-speed compression damping of the shock absorber
Caution
Danger of accidents Disassembly of pressurized parts can lead to injury.
–
The shock absorber is filled with high density nitrogen. Adhere to the description provided. (Your authorized KTM workshop will
be glad to help.)
Info
The low-speed setting can be seen during the slow to normal compression of the shock absorber.
