User Manual

Measure the distance D
between the motorcycle seat 1
and the axle 2.
Remove the engine lifter.
Place the motorcycle on its
stand on firm, even ground.
Subject the motorcycle to load
with a rider, and possibly with
luggage.
With the assistance of a
second person, measure
the distance D between
the points 1 and 2 again
and calculate the difference
(compression) between the
measured values.

85 kg)
30

mm (Racing use with
rider 85 kg)
To reduce compression (in-
crease of spring preload), turn
screw 1 using toolkit in the dir-
ection A.
To increase compression (re-
duction of spring preload), turn
screw 1 using toolkit in the dir-
ection B.
Damping
Adjustment
Damping must be adapted to suit
the condition of the surface on
which the motorcycle is ridden
and to suit spring preload.
An uneven surface requires
softer damping than a smooth
surface.
An increase in spring preload
requires firmer damping, a re-
duction in spring preload re-
quires softer damping.
