Rear shock absorber adjusters
Attention
Have the rear shock absorber adjusted at a
Ducati authorised Service Centre.
The rear shock absorber has adjusters that enable
you to suit the setting to the load on the motorcycle.
Adjuster (1), located on the lower part of the
monoshock, adjusts the damping during the
rebound phase (return). Turn adjuster (1) clockwise to
stiffen the rebound damping, or counter clockwise to
soften it. The adjuster (2) located on the expansion
reservoir of the shock absorber adjusts the hydraulic
compression damping. Turn adjuster (2) clockwise to
stiffen the compression damping, or counter
clockwise to soften it. The two ring nuts (3), located
in the shock absorber upper side, adjust the external
spring preload. To change spring preload, slacken
the upper locking ring nut. Then TIGHTEN or
SLACKEN the lower ring nut to INCREASE or
DECREASE spring preload. The pitch of the preload
ring nut threading is 1.5 mm (0.05 in).
