Rear suspension
For maintenance intervals, refer to the "SCHEDULED
MAINTENANCE TABLE" section under "Rear shock absorber".
The rear wheel suspension is composed of a damper and
linkage unit and is connected in the upper part to the shock
absorber head and in the lower part (linkage) to the swing
arm.
Shock absorber preload adjustment
For different use needs, it is possible to customize the
setting. To make changes it is recommended to wait until
the engine is completely cold. Adjust the spring preload
according to the conditions of use of the vehicle.
– Loosen the fixing screw "A" of the ring nut;
– Using a hook wrench to turn the ring nut "B" to the desired
position;
– Re-tighten fixing screw "A" or ring nut.
Do not force the rotation of the registers beyond the
limit switch (in both directions), to avoid possible
damage.
The basic setting of the suspension is done by Fantic
Motor.
