Damping action during compression of shock absorber
The shock absorber's damping action during compression travel (compression
damping) can be adjusted. This allows you adjust the shock absorber's damp-
ing behavior to match your driving style and the payload.
The damping rate can be adjusted in the low and high-speed range (Dual
Compression Control). The designation low and high-speed refers to the move-
ment of the shock absorber and not to the motorcycle's driving speed.
The adjusting screw [1] for the low-speed range can be adjusted with a
screwdriver.
The adjusting screw [2] for the high-speed range can be adjusted with a
17 mm socket wrench.
More information is provided in the chapter "Adjusting the fork and shock
absorber.“
Rebound damping of shock absorber
The shock absorber's damping action during rebound travel (rebound damp-
ing) can also be adjusted. This allows you adjust the damping behavior to
match your driving style and the payload.
The adjusting screw [3] is located on the bottom of the shock absorber.
More information is provided in the chapter "Adjusting the fork and shock
absorber.“
Spring preload on shock absorber
The spring preload on the shock absorber can be adjusted by turning the adjust-
ing ring [4].
More information is provided in the chapter "Adjusting the fork and shock
absorber.“
