Page 24: Checks Before And After Use
CHECKS BEFORE AND AFTER USE For safe driving and long vehicle life you should: • Check all fluid levels. • Check the correct operation of the brakes and brake pad wear (page 44). • Check pressure, general condition and thickness of tread (page 10). • Check that the spokes are properly tightened. • Check the chain tension (page 55). • Check the adjustment and the operation of all the cable controls. • Inspect all the nuts and bolts. • With the engine running, check the operation of the headlight, the rear and brake lights, the indicators, the warning lights and the horn. • Wash the motorcycle thoroughly after off-road use (page 59). BREAKING IN The breaking-in period lasts approximately 5 hours, during which it is advisable to: • Avoid travelling at constant speed. -

Page 30: Accelerator
ACCELERATOR ADJUSTING THE IDLE SPEED In order to perform this operation correctly, we advise you to do it when the engine is hot, connecting an electric revolution counter to the spark plug wire. Then use a screwdriver on register screw A to cali- brate the minimum with 900÷1000 rpm. -
Page 31: Shock Absorber
ADJUSTING THE SPRING PRELOAD Spring preload is adjusted by means of screw 2. Turning clockwise will increase the preload, while rotating counter- clock- wise decreases the preload. For standard calibration, refer to page SHOCK ABSORBER ADJUSTING THE REBOUND DAMPER The hydraulic brake unit in extension deter- mines the behaviour in the extension phase of the shock absorber and can be adjusted using screw 1. -
Page 32: Suspension Adjustment According To The Motorcyclist's Weight
ADJUSTING THE SPRING PRELOAD To adjust the spring preload, use the pro- cedure described below. Loosen counter-ring 1, rotate ring 2 clock- wise to increase the spring preload (and consequently the shock absorber preload) or anticlockwise to decrease it. After obtaining the desired preload, turn counter-ring 1 until it stops against adjust- ing ring 2. -
