Shock preload adjustment
The front and rear shock spring preload and damping
can be adjusted to for rider weight, cargo, and riding
conditions. Always adjust the shock absorbers on the left
and right side to the same setting, and reset them to the
initial setting after carrying loads.
Adjust the spring preload:
A = Soft ~ B = Hard
To increase the spring preload, turn the
adjusting ring ② in direction ‘B’.
To decrease the spring preload, turn the
adjusting ring ② in direction ‘A’.
NOTE:
A special collar wrench is included in the tool kit to make
spring preload adjustments.
