To increase the rebound damping force
and thereby harden the rebound damp-

ing, turn the adjusting dial in direction
(a). To decrease the rebound damping

force and thereby soften the rebound
damping, turn the adjusting dial in di-

rection (b).

Rebound damping setting:
Minimum (soft):
20 clicks in direction (b)*
Standard:
9 clicks in direction (b)*
1
Maximum (hard):
1 click in direction (b)*
* With the adjusting dial fully turned in
direction (a)
NOTE:
Although the total number of clicks of
the damping force adjusting mecha-
nism may not exactly match the above
specifications due to small differences
in production, the actual number of
clicks always represents the entire ad-
justing range. To obtain a precise ad-
justment, it would be advisable to check
the number of clicks of the damping
force adjusting mechanism and to mod-
ify the specifications as necessary.
WARNING
This shock absorber contains highly
pressurized nitrogen gas. For prop-
er handling, read and understand
the following information before
handling the shock absorber. The

G Do not tamper with or attempt to
open the gas cylinder.
G
Do not subject the shock ab-
sorber to an open flame or other
high heat sources, otherwise it
may explode due to excessive
gas pressure.
G Do not deform or damage the
gas cylinder in any way, as this
will result in poor damping per-
formance.
G
Always have a Yamaha dealer
service the shock absorber.
