«R2».
Calculate the dim.
H2 = R2 + L2.
Compress the suspension until the values
(H1)and (H2)are obtained.
NOTE:The difference in height between the two sides should be less than10 mm.

Checks at reference height
NOTE:
To make the setting of reference height easier, it is acceptable to take the measurement from the flange of the jacking point.
WARNING: The values shown should only be used as guides. In case of doubt, check the settings at reference height

Compress the suspension to obtain the calculated values.
NOTE:The difference in height between the two sides should be less than 10 mm. Measure the radius of the rear wheel:
R2.
Calculate dimension H2. Measure the radius of the front wheel:R1.
Calculate dimension H1or H1’.
