Spring Pre-load Adjustment
1. Spring pre-load adjuster
The spring pre-load adjuster is situated
on the right hand side of the motorcycle,
at the top of the rear suspension unit.
To adjust the spring pre-load setting:
Rotate the slotted adjuster clockwise to
increase, or anti-clockwise to decrease.
Note:
• The settings are measured by the
number of adjuster 'clicks' out from
the fully screwed in position.
• The motorcycle is delivered from the
factory with the spring pre-load set
to 28 'clicks' back from the fully
screwed in position.
Bank Angle Indicators
Bank angle indicators are located on the
rider’s footrests.
Regularly check the bank angle
indicators for wear.
The bank angle indicators must be
replaced when they have reached the
maximum wear limit of 10 mm in length.
1. Bank angle indicator
Use of a motorcycle with bank angle
indicators worn beyond the maximum
limit will allow the motorcycle to be
banked to an unsafe angle.
Banking to an unsafe angle may cause
instability, loss of motorcycle control
and an accident.
