Multi-function display The multi-function display is equipped
with the following:
an odometer (which shows the to-
tal distance traveled)
two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero)
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled on the
fuel reserve)
a fuel meter
a clock
a self-diagnosis device
a display, speedometer, and ta-
chometer brightness control mode
NOTE:Be sure to turn the key to “ON” before
using the select and reset buttons, ex-
cept for setting the display, speedome-
ter and tachometer brightness controlmode.
Odometer and tripmeter modes
Pushing the select button switches the
display between the odometer mode
“ODO” and the tripmeter modes “TRIP
1” and “TRIP 2” in the following order:
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → ODOWhen approximately 4.5 L (1.19 US
gal) (0.99 Imp.gal) of fuel remains in the
fuel tank, the display will automatically
change to the fuel reserve tripmeter
mode “TRIP F” and start counting the
distance traveled from that point. In that
case, pushing the select button switch-
es the display between the various trip-
meter and odometer modes in the
following order:
TRIP F → ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 →
TRIP F
To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the select button, and then push the
reset button for at least two seconds. If
you do not reset the fuel reserve trip-
meter manually, it will reset itself auto-
matically and the display will return to
the prior mode after refueling and trav-
eling 5 km (3 mi).

3The brake lever is equipped with a
brake lever position adjusting dial. To
adjust the distance between the brake
lever and the handlebar grip, turn the
adjusting dial while holding the lever
pushed away from the handlebar grip.
Make sure that the appropriate setting
on the adjusting dial is aligned with
the“” mark on the brake lever.

CAUTION:
ECA10100
Never attempt to turn an adjusting
mechanism beyond the maximum orminimum settings.NOTE:Although the total number of clicks of a
damping force adjusting mechanism
may not exactly match the above spec-
ifications due to small differences in
production, the actual number of clicks
always represents the entire adjusting
range. To obtain a precise adjustment,
it would be advisable to check the num-
ber of clicks of each damping force ad-
justing mechanism and to modify thespecifications as necessary.
EAU43252
Adjusting the shock absorber
assemblies Each shock absorber assembly is
equipped with a spring preload adjust-
ing ring and rebound and compression
damping force adjusting knobs.
WARNING
EWA10210
Always adjust both shock absorber
assemblies equally, otherwise poor
handling and loss of stability mayresult.
Spring preload
Adjust the spring preload as follows.
1. Loosen the lock screw 1/2 turn
counterclockwise.2. To increase the spring preload and
thereby harden the suspension,
turn the adjusting ring in direction
(a). To decrease the spring pre-
load and thereby soften the sus-
pension, turn the adjusting ring in
direction (b).
NOTE:
Use the special wrench included in
the owner’s tool kit to make this ad-
justment.
The spring preload setting is deter-
mined by measuring distance A,
shown in the illustration. The long-
er distance A is, the higher the
spring preload; the shorter dis-
tance A is, the lower the spring
preload. With each complete turn
of the adjusting ring, distance A
changes by 1.5 mm (0.06 in).
Be sure to turn the adjusting ring
so that the lock screw is facing out-ward.
