EBU35035Front shock absorbersThe shock absorber assemblies are equipped
with a spring preload adjusting nut, a rebound
damping force adjusting screw, a fast com-
pression damping force adjusting bolt, and a
slow compression damping force adjusting
screw.
WARNING
EWB02492Suspension components become hot
during operation. Never touch the com-
pression damping force adjusting bolt
and screw, the rebound damping force
adjusting screw or the oil reservoir with
your bare hand or skin until suspension

understand the following information be-
fore handling the shock absorber assem-
blies.
Do not tamper with or attempt to open
the cylinder assemblies.
Do not subject the shock absorber as-
semblies to an open flame or other high

explode due to excessive gas pressure.
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.
