Adjusting fork fluid barrier
Info
The fluid barrier determines the behavior of the end position damping and the puncture resistance of the fork.
Adjusting the compression damping of the fork (All GP models)
Info
The hydraulic compression damping determines the fork suspension behavior.
Info
Turn clockwise to increase the spring preload; turn counter-
clockwise to reduce the spring preload.
Adjusting the spring preload has no influence on the absorp-
tion setting of the rebound.
Basically, however, you should set the rebound damping
higher with a higher spring preload.
Preparatory work
–
Remove front brake disc guard.
Main work
–
Turn the adjusting screw
Info
The adjusting screw
left fork leg.
–
Turn counterclockwise by the appropriate number of clicks.

Fluid barrier (All RACING models)
Standard
Fluid barrier (All GP models)
Standard
Info
Turning it counterclockwise increases the damping of the
fluid barrier: the end position damping and the puncture
resistance of the fork increase.
Turning it clockwise reduces the damping of the fluid bar-
rier: the end position damping and the puncture resistance
of the fork decrease.
Finishing work
–
Install the brake disc guard at the front.
