are located at the top of each fork.

above the fork top cap.

front and rear suspension is maintained.
Suspension imbalance could significantly
change handling characteristics leading to
loss of control and an accident. Refer to the
chart on the previous page for further
information or consult your dealer.
Warning
Ensure that the adjusters are set to the
same setting on both forks. Settings which
vary from left to right could significantly
change handling characteristics leading to
loss of control and an accident.
