ABS warning light goes
out; if self-diagnosis has
not completed the ABS warn-
ing light changes from ON to
flashing.
When the ABS warning light
goes out, release the ABS
button within five seconds.
The ABS warning light re-
mains off.
If ABS self—diagnosis did
not complete, the ABS
warning light continues to
flash.
The ABS function is activ-
ated.
Instead of pressing the ABS
button, you have the option
of switching the ignition off
and then on again.
If you switch the ignition
off then on again and
the ABS light comes back on,
there is a fault in the ABS.
Suspension settings
Spring preload
It is essential to set spring
preload of the rear suspen-
sion to suit the load carried
by the motorcycle. Increase
spring preload when the mo-
torcycle is heavily loaded and
reduce spring preload ac-
cordingly when the motor-
cycle is lightly loaded.
Damping
Damping must be adapted to
suit spring preload and the
surface on which the motor-
cycle is ridden. An increase
in spring preload requires
firmer damping, a reduction in
spring preload requires softer
damping.
Spring preload
Adjusting spring preload
for rear wheel
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
being ridden can lead to acci-
dents.
Do not attempt to adjust
spring preload unless the
motorcycle is at a standstill.
Make sure the ground is
level and firm and place the
motorcycle on its stand.
