RSV4 RR-RF
The right stem is also equipped with an upper ad-
juster screw (1) for adjusting hydraulic rebound
damping.
RSV 1000 RR
Each fork has a top adjustment screw (1) to set the
rebound damping; an upper nut (3) to adjust the
spring pre-loading and a lower adjustment screw
(2) to modify the compression damping.
IN ORDER TO AVOID DAMAGES DO NOT FORCE THE SET
SCREWS TO TURN BEYOND THE END OF THE STROKE
ON BOTH SIDES. SET THE SAME SPRING PRE-LOAD AND
HYDRAULIC DAMPING SETTING FOR BOTH STAN-
CHIONS: RIDING THE VEHICLE WITH DIFFERENT SET-
TINGS FOR THE TWO STANCHIONS REDUCES STABILI-
TY. WHEN SPRING PRE-LOAD IS INCREASED, REBOUND
DAMPING MUST ALSO BE INCREASED TO PREVENT EX-
CESSIVE SUSPENSION KICKBACK WHEN RIDING.
