preload. With each complete turn
of the adjusting nut, distance A is
changed by 1.5 mm (0.06 in).
1. Distance A
Spring preload:
Minimum (hard):
Distance A = 163 mm (6.42 in)
Standard:
Distance A = 172 mm (6.77 in)
Maximum (soft):
Distance A = 174 mm (6.85 in)
3. Tighten the locknut to the specified
torque.

Rebound damping force
1. Rebound damping force adjusting knob
To increase the rebound damping force
and thereby harden the rebound damp-
ing, turn the adjusting knob in direction
(a). To decrease the rebound damping
force and thereby soften the rebound
damping, turn the adjusting knob in di-
rection (b).

Rebound damping setting:
Minimum (soft)
20 click(s) in direction (b)*
Standard
10 click(s) in direction (b)*
Maximum (hard)
3 click(s) in direction (b)*
* With the adjusting knob fully turned
in direction (a)*
NOTE:
Although the total number of clicks of
the damping force adjusting mecha-
nism may not exactly match the above
specifications due to small differences
in production, the actual number of
clicks always represents the entire ad-
justing range. To obtain a precise ad-
justment, it would be advisable to check
the number of clicks of the damping
force adjusting mechanism and to mod-
ify the specifications as necessary.
