INSTRUMENT AND CONTROL FUNCTIONS

EAU03414

Adjusting the front fork

This front fork is equipped with air
valves for adjusting the spring rate.

EW000035

Always adjust both fork legs equal-

ly, otherwise poor handling and loss

of stability may result.

1. Air valve cap
2. Air valve

Adjust the spring rate as follows.

1. Elevate the front wheel by placing

the motorcycle on the centerstand.

N O T E :

When checking and adjusting the air

pressure, there should be no weight on
the front end of the motorcycle.

2. Remove the air valve cap from

each fork leg.

1. Air pressure gauge

3. Check the air pressure in each

fork leg with an air pressure
gauge.

N O T E :

An optional air pressure gauge is avail-
able at a Yamaha dealer.

4. To increase the spring rate and

thereby harden the suspension,

increase the air pressure with an
air pump or compressed air. To
decrease the spring rate and
thereby soften the suspension, de-
crease the air pressure by pushing
each valve stem down.
