INSTRUMENT AND CONTROL FUNCTIONS

Compression damping force
To adjust the compression damping
force (for fast compression damping)
To increase the compression damping
force and thereby harden the compres-
sion damping, turn the adjusting bolt on
each fork leg in direction (a). To de-
crease the compression damping force
and thereby soften the compression
damping, turn the adjusting bolt on
each fork leg in direction (b).
To adjust the compression damping
force (for slow compression damping)
To increase the compression damping
force and thereby harden the compres-
sion damping, turn the adjusting bolt on
each fork leg in direction (a). To de-
crease the compression damping force
and thereby soften the compression
damping, turn the adjusting bolt on
each fork leg in direction (b).
TIP
Although the total number of clicks or
turns of a damping force adjusting
mechanism may not exactly match the
Rebound damping setting:
Minimum (soft):
25 click(s) in direction (b)*
Standard:
20 click(s) in direction (b)*
Maximum (hard):
1 click(s) in direction (b)*
* With the adjusting screw fully turned
in direction (a)
1. Compression damping force adjusting bolt
(for fast compression damping)
Compression damping setting (for
fast compression damping):
Minimum (soft):
4 turn(s) in direction (b)*
Standard:
2 turn(s) in direction (b)*
Maximum (hard):
0 turn(s) in direction (b)*
* With the adjusting bolt fully turned in
direction (a)
