AXLE GEOMETRY
The values L1 and L2 are given in the table below.
Geometry of the axles at reference height.
Rear heightFront height
H1 = Distance between the ground and
the mounting face of the fixings.
R1 = Distance between the centre of
the front wheel and the ground.
L1 = Distance between the centre of the
front wheel and the mounting face of
the fixings.
H2 = Distance between the ground and
the mounting face of the rear cross-
member.
R2 = Distance between the centre of
the rear wheel and the ground.
L2 = Distance between the centre of the
rear wheel and the rear crossmember.

Measure the dimension R1. Calculate the dimension H1 = R1 – L1.
Measure the dimension R2. Calculate the dimension H2 = R2 + L2.
Compress the suspension until the calculated values «H1» and «H2» are obtained.
NOTE : The difference in height between the two sides at the rear should be less than 7.5 mm.
