Shock Absorber - Rear Shock Absorber Adjustment
External adjustment of rear shock absorber:
A. Rebound damping adjustment;
B. Compression damping adjustment;
C. Spring preload adjustment;
D. Airbag inflation setting.
■ Rebound damping adjustment
As shown in Figure 1 on Page 30, the rebound damping can be adjusted by rotating
the red adjusting knob of rebound damping on the lower fixing base of rear shock
absorber.
● Rotate the knob clockwise to increase the rebound damping and make the rear
shock absorber slow down during rebound; rotate it counterclockwise to reduce the
rebound damping and make the rear shock absorber become faster during rebound.
● The rebound damping can be adjusted by 12 segments and can be set
appropriately according to the rider's weight, habits and road conditions. It is
generally adjusted clockwise to the maximum and then counterclockwise to the
required segment. When adjusting, the force applied should be moderate, and the
adjustment stopped immediately in case of slight resistance, so as not to exceed the
bearing limit of the adjusting screw.
