Warning
To turn the preload adjuster nuts, use only a specific tool and take care, otherwise the wrench pins may slip off the nut.
This could injure your hands. Never use a wrench with a too small pin or with a too short handle.
Important
When adjusting the spring preload, do not exceed a spring length of 181 mm to avoid damaging the swingarm.
Standard length of the preloaded spring on the shock absorber with the rear wheel raised off the ground: 150±1 mm.
Warning
The shock absorber is filled with high-pressure gas and can cause injuries if inexpertly dismantled.
Important
If the motorcycle is to be ridden with a pillion rider and luggage, we recommend setting the rear shock absorber spring
preload to the maximum to ensure the best handling and proper ground clearance at all times. It may also be necessary
to adjust the rebound damping accordingly.
