3. Check the air pressure in each fork
leg with the air pressure gauge in-
cluded in the owner’s tool kit.
4. To increase the spring rate and
thereby harden the suspension, in-
crease the air pressure with an air
pump. To decrease the spring rate
and thereby soften the suspen-
sion, decrease the air pressure by
pushing each valve stem down.
CAUTION:
ECA10090
Never exceed the maximum air pres-
sure, otherwise the front fork oil
seals may become damaged.
5. Securely install the air valve caps.

Adjusting the shock absorber
assembly
This shock absorber assembly is
equipped with an air valve for adjusting
the spring rate.
CAUTION:
ECA10100
Never attempt to turn an adjusting
mechanism beyond the maximum or
minimum settings.
Adjust the spring rate as follows.
1. Place the vehicle on the sidestand.
NOTE:
When checking and adjusting the air
pressure, there should be no weight on
the vehicle.
2. Remove the air valve cap.
3. Check the air pressure with the air
pressure gauge included in the
owner’s tool kit.
4. To increase the spring rate and
thereby harden the suspension, in-
crease the air pressure with an air
pump. To decrease the spring rate
and thereby soften the suspen-
sion, decrease the air pressure by
pushing the valve stem down.
Spring rate:
Minimum (soft):
Air pressure = 0 kPa (0 kgf/cm², 0
psi)
Standard:
Air pressure = 0 kPa (0 kgf/cm², 0
psi)
Maximum (hard):
Air pressure = 50 kPa (0.5 kgf/cm²,
7.1 psi)
