Suspenson; Air Pressure; Rear Air Pressure Adjustment - Honda CBX 750F Owner's Manual

SUSPENSON

The front and rear suspension of this motorcycle can provide the desired ride under various rider/luggag e weights and driving
conditions through adjustment of the air pressure.
The recommended pressures under normal conditions are:
Front 0 - 40 kPa (0 - 0.4 kg/cm
Rear 0 - 400 kPa (0 - 4.0 kg/cm
Low air pressure settings provide a softer ride and for light loads and smooth road conditions. High air pressure settings
provide a firm er ride and are for heavy loads and rough road conditions.

Air Pressure

Check and adjust air pressure when the front fo rk tubes and rear shock absorbers are cold
before riding.
Front air pressure adjustment:
1. Place the motorcycle on its centre stand. Do not use the side stand, or you will get false
pressure readings.
2. Remove the front fork air valve cap (1). Check the air pressure.
NOTE: Some pressure will be lost when removing the gauge from the valve. Determine
the amount of loss and compensate accordingly.
3. Add air to the recommended pressure.
NOTE: We recommend that you do not ex ceed the recommended air pressure or the ride will be harsh and
uncomfortable.
4. Reinstall the front fork air valv e cap.

Rear air pressure adjustment:

1. Place the motorcycle on its centre stand.
2. Do not use the side stand, or you will get false pressure readings.
3. Remove the right side cover.
4. Remove the valve air cap (2). Check the air pressure with an air pressure gauge.
NOTE: Some pressure will be lost when removing the gauge from the valve.
Determine the amount of loss and compensate accordingly.
5. If required, add air up to the recommended pressure.
6. Reinstall the air valve cap (2) and the right side cover.
