Notes on adjusting the suspension
 A special wrench and special tool can be
obtained at a Yamaha dealer to make the
spring preload or crossover setting adjust-
ment.
 When adjusting the damping force settings,
turn the adjuster in direction (a) until it
stops, and then count the turns or clicks in
direction (b).
 Although a damping force adjuster may
turn or click beyond the stated minimum
settings, such adjustments are ineffective
and may damage the suspension.
