Rear shock absorber adjustment (ref. Fig. 45)
Pre-load adjustment
The pre-load of rear shock absorber can be adjusted
as per rider’s convenience and the load (weight of
rider, passenger and luggage) on the vehicle.
• There are 10 notches (1) for adjusting the
pre-load of the shock absorber. Normally, the
shock absorber’s pre-load adjuster (2) will be
positioned at 3rd notch (standard setting).
- Increase the spring pre-load (shift to higher
notches) for heavier rides.
- Decrease the spring pre-load (shift to lower
notches) for lighter rides.

When Adjusting the damping force setting turn the
adjuster screw in clockwise direction until it stops,
noting that the first click counted as 1 then count the
clicks turning in anti-clockwise direction.
Although the damping adjuster may turn beyond the
stated minimum settings, such turns are ineffective and
advised not to turn further, as it may lead to the damage
of damping mechanism.
