Adjusting The Front Fork - Ducati Diavel Carbon Owner's Manual

Adjusting the front fork

The front fork used on this motorcycle has rebound,
compression and spring preload adjustment.
Use the external screw adjusters:
1) to adjust the rebound damping(Fig 127);
2) to adjust the preload of the inner springs
(Fig 127);
3) to adjust the compression damping (Fig 128).
Position the motorcycle on its side stand so that it is
stable. Turn the knob (1) at the top end of each fork
leg to adjust rebound damping. Turn the adjuster (3)
at the bottom of each fork leg with a flat screwdriver
to adjust compression damping. Turn knob (1) and the
adjusting screws (3) to adjust damping. The stiffest
damping setting is obtained with the adjuster turned
fully clockwise to the "0" position. Starting from this
position and by rotating counterclockwise, you can
count the turns.
