Crossover setting (YXZ10YESH)
The crossover setting adjusts the timing when
the shock absorber transitions from the soft
spring to the hard spring.TIP It is recommended to adjust the crossover
setting a similar distance whenever the
spring preload is adjusted.
 The crossover setting is measured from the
bottom of the spring preload adjusting ring
to the bottom of the crossover adjusting
ring.

WARNING
EWB04140Suspension components become hot
during operation. Never touch the com-
pression damping force adjusting bolt
and screw, the rebound damping force
adjusting bolt and screw, or the oil reser-
voir with your bare hand or skin until
suspension components have cooled.
 Always adjust the shock absorber as-
semblies on the left and right side to the
same setting. Uneven adjustment can
cause poor handling and loss of stability,
which could lead to an accident. NOTICEECB00091Never turn an adjusting mechanism be-
yond the minimum and maximum settings. TIPAlthough the total number of clicks or turns of
a damping force adjusting mechanism may
not exactly match the following specifications due to small differences in production, the ac-
tual number of clicks or turns always repre-
sents the entire adjusting range. To obtain a
precise adjustment, it would be advisable to
check the number of clicks or turns of each
damping force adjusting mechanism and to
modify the specifications as necessary.
Spring preload
1. Loosen the locknut.
2. Turn the spring preload adjusting nut in direction (a) to increase the spring pre-
load and thereby harden the suspension,
and in direction (b) to decrease the spring
preload and thereby soften the suspen-
sion.

TIPA special wrench can be obtained at a
Yamaha dealer to make this adjustment.
 The spring preload setting is determined by
measuring distance A, shown in the illustra-
tion. The shorter distance A is, the higher
the spring preload; the longer distance A is,
the lower the spring preload.

Rebound damping force (YXZ10YEXH)
Turn the rebound damping force adjusting
screw in direction (a) to increase the rebound
damping force and thereby harden the damp-
ing, and in direction (b) to decrease the re-
bound damping force and thereby soften the
damping.
