Kit suspension specs By ensuring a damping force on the compression side, the kit enables the rider to change
the machine attitude gently and improves convergence when riding over a gap.
*Damping force: Depends on the stroke speed.

Bottoming rubber adopted
To maintain comfort when riding in urban areas and improve
road-holding properties when banking into bends.
Set the lowest possible damping force.
Instability caused by excessive front dip movement during the
initial braking period.
Reduces machine stability. (excessive movement when
accelerating, passing over a gap, etc.)
Improves durability and lowers friction.
Improves spring replacement operation. (Special tool
included.)
Improves gap absorbability during braking.
