Rebound damping force
1. Rebound damping force adjusting screw
To increase the rebound damping force
and thereby harden the rebound damp-
ing, turn the adjusting screw on each
fork leg in direction (a). To decrease the
rebound damping force and thereby
soften the rebound damping, turn the
adjusting screw on each fork leg in di-
rection (b).
Rebound damping setting:
Minimum (soft):
17 click(s) in direction (b)*
Standard:
15 click(s) in direction (b)*
Maximum (hard):
1 click(s) in direction (b)*
* With the adjusting screw fully turned
in direction (a)
INSTRUMENT AND CONTROL FUNCTIONS
Compression damping force
1. Compression damping force adjusting bolt
(for fast compression damping)
2. Compression damping force adjusting bolt
(for slow compression damping)
To adjust the compression damping
force (for fast compression damping)
To increase the compression damping
force and thereby harden the compres-
sion damping, turn the adjusting bolt on
each fork leg in direction (a). To de-
crease the compression damping force
and thereby soften the compression
damping, turn the adjusting bolt on
each fork leg in direction (b).
3-21
NOTE:
The compression damping force set-
ting is determined by measuring dis-
tance A, shown in the illustration. The
longer distance A is, the higher the
compression damping force; the short-
er distance A is, the lower the compres-
sion damping force.
1. Distance A
Compression damping setting (for
fast compression damping):
Minimum (soft):
Distance A = 8 mm (0.31 in)
Standard:
Distance A = 10 mm (0.39 in)
Maximum (hard):
Distance A = 12 mm (0.47 in)
