WARNING

EWB02491

● Suspension components become hot during

operation. Never touch the compression

damping force adjusting bolt and screw, the

rebound damping force adjusting screw or

the oil reservoir with your bare hand or skin

until suspension components have cooled.

● Always adjust the shock absorber assem-

blies on the left and right side to the same

setting. Uneven adjustment can cause poor

handling and loss of stability, which could

lead to an accident.

NOTICE

ECB00090

Never turn an adjusting mechanism beyond

the minimum and maximum settings.

TIP

Although the total number of clicks or turns of a

damping force adjusting mechanism may not ex-

actly match the following specifications due to

small differences in production, the actual number

of clicks or turns always represents the entire ad-

justing range. To obtain a precise adjustment, it

would be advisable to check the number of clicks

or turns of each damping force adjusting mecha-

nism and to modify the specifications as neces-

sary.

1. Loosen the locknut.

2. Turn the spring preload adjusting nut in direc-

tion (a) to increase the spring preload and

thereby harden the suspension, and in direc-

tion (b) to decrease the spring preload and

thereby soften the suspension.
