Do not deform or damage the cylinders
in any way. Cylinder damage will result in
poor damping performance.
 Do not dispose of a damaged or worn
out shock absorber assembly yourself.
Take the shock absorber assembly to a
Yamaha dealer for any service. EBU33620Adjusting the rear shock absorber as-
sembliesThese shock absorber assemblies are
equipped with a spring preload adjusting nut,
a rebound damping force adjusting screw, a
compression damping force adjusting bolt
(for fast compression damping), and a com-
