3. Check the air pressure in each fork
leg using a low-pressure air
gauge. A low-pressure air gauge is
available at a Yamaha dealer.
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.
5. Securely install the air valve caps.

When checking and adjusting the
air pressure, there should be no
weight on the vehicle.
2. Remove the air valve cap.

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)
