Rear suspension
The rising-rate rear suspension is made up of a shock absorber, a linkage system
and a swinging arm. The spring preload of the shock absorber can be adjusted
to suit riding and terrain conditions. Hydraulic damping is also adjustable using
outer adjuster screws. Periodically check all components for wear.

Rear shock absorber removal

Set a block under the engine and see that the rear wheel is lifted from the
