Adjusting the front fork
This front fork is equipped with rebound
damping force adjusting screws and
compression damping force adjusting
screws.
WARNING
EWA10180
Always adjust both fork legs equal-
ly, otherwise poor handling and loss
of stability may result.
Rebound damping force
To increase the rebound damping force
and thereby harden the rebound damp-
ing, turn the adjusting screw on each
fork leg in direction (a). To decrease the
rebound damping force and thereby
soften the rebound damping, turn the
adjusting screw on each fork leg in di-
rection (b).
Compression damping force
1. Remove the rubber cap by pulling
it out of the front fork leg.
