Spring preloadAdjustment for rear
suspensionIt is essential to set spring pre-
load of the rear suspension to
suit the load carried by the mo-
torcycle. Increase spring preload
when the motorcycle is heavily
loaded and reduce spring preload
accordingly when the motorcycle
is lightly loaded.Adjusting spring preload
for rear wheelMake sure the ground is level
and firm and place the motor-
cycle on its stand. Your motorcycle's hand-
ling will suffer if you do not
match the spring-preload and
damping-characteristic settings.
Adjust the damping characteristic
to suit spring preload.
Adjusting spring preload
while the motorcycle is be-
ing ridden can lead to accidents.
Do not attempt to adjust spring
preload unless the motorcycle is
at a standstill.
Note that there is a danger
of coming into contact with
the hot exhaust silencer when
you turn the knob.
