11 TUNING THE CHASSIS

Info
Adjust the spring preload to the numerical values only
as the preload will not engage between the numerical
values.
Turn clockwise to increase the spring preload; turn
counterclockwise to reduce the spring preload.
Adjusting the spring pretension has no influence on the
absorption setting of the rebound.
Basically, however, you should set the rebound damp-
ing higher with a higher spring pretension.
Finishing work
– Remove the motorcycle from the lift stand. ( p. 63)
