12 Rear suspension units: removal, examination and
renovation
1 The swinging arm rear fork assembly is supported by two
suspension units, of the hydraulically damped spring type. Each
unit consists of a hydraulic damper, effective primarily on
rebound, and a concentric, chromed spring. It is mounted by
way of rubber-bushed lugs at top and bottom.
2 The suspension units are provided with an adjustment of
the spring tension, giving five settings. The settings can be
easily altered without removing the units from the machine by
using a 'C spanner; both units should be positioned on the
same setting. •
3 Remove the suspension units by removing the chromed
dome mounting nuts, then pull the unit sideways off its
mounting lugs. Note carefully the position and number of the
plain metal washers fitted next to the unit mounting eyes.
4 Refitting is the reversal of the above procedure. Refit the
washers in their original positions and tighten the retaining nuts
securely.
5 There is no means of draining the units or toppfng up,
because the dampers are built as a sealed unit. If the damping
fails or the units begin to leak, the complete damper assembly
