9.3Basic information on changing the chassis settings
The standard setting of the chassis is the result of many fine tuning tests. It is laid out for the weight of the average rider (with a full set of
protective clothing) and for a sporty driving style.
Average rider weight 70… 80 kg (154… 176 lb.)
By making a variety of adjustments to the chassis, you can set it to better match your body weight and riding style.
The left and right front shock absorbers should have the same settings.
If your weight is above or below the average, you have to adjust the standard setting of the suspension components accordingly.
