Adjusting the antihog�ing clutch
Warning
Environmental hazard
-
Dispose of oils, grease, filters, fuel, cleaning agents, brake fluid, etc., correctly and in compliance
with the applicable regulations.
Info
The characteristics of the antihopping clutch can be affected by the spring preload force.
Increasing the spring preload force causes the clutch to open later when braking (more engine brak
ing effect). The clutch also engages differently when starting; the differences are considerably less pro
nounced than when braking. The clutch then behaves somewhat more aggressively.
In case of a high level of engine braking effect, short-term slip of
the clutch occurs. This prevents rear wheel hopping.
Hazardous substances cause environmental damage.
