Spring preload
Setting
It is essential to set spring
preload of the rear suspension
to suit the load carried by the
motorcycle. Increase spring
preload when the motorcycle is
heavily loaded and reduce spring
preload accordingly when the
motorcycle is lightly loaded.
Adjusting spring preload
for rear wheel
Make sure ground is level and
firm and park motorcycle.
Adjusting the spring preload
while the motorcycle is be-
ing ridden can lead to accidents.
Adjust the spring preload
only when the motorcycle is
stationary.
Pull knob 1 out for better ac-
cessibility.
Your motorcycle's han-
dling will suffer if you do
not match the spring-preload and
damping-characteristic settings.
Adjust the damping characteristic
to suit the spring preload.
