Adjusting the shock absorber
assembly
The shock absorber assembly has ad-
justers for spring preload, rebound
damping, and compression damping.
NOTICE
ECA10102
To avoid damaging the mechanism,
do not attempt to turn beyond the
maximum or minimum settings.
Spring preload
Turn the adjuster in direction (a) to in-
crease the spring preload.
Turn the adjuster in direction (b) to de-
crease the spring preload.
The spring preload setting is deter-
mined by measuring distance A,
shown in the illustration. The shorter
the distance A is, the higher the spring
preload; the longer distance A is, the
lower the spring preload.
Rebound damping force
Turn the adjuster in direction (a) to in-
crease the rebound damping force.
