Damping action during compression of shock absorber
The shock absorber on the SX models can synchronize the compression
damping in the low and high-speed range separately (Dual Compression
Control).
Low and high speed refers to the movement of the shock absorber during
compression and not to the speed of the motorcycle.
The low and high-speed technology overlaps.
The low-speed setting is primarily for slow to normal shock absorber
compression rates.The high-speed setting is effective at fast compression
rates.Turning in a clockwise direction will increase the damping, turning
counterclockwise will decrease the damping.
STANDARD LOW-SPEED SETTING:
– Turn the adjusting screw

ewdriver .
– Unscrew the respective number of clicks for the specific type of shock
absorber in a counterclockwise direction.
Type White Power 1218X758..............15 clicks

STANDARD HIGH-SPEED SETTING:
– Turn the adjusting screw
using a box wrench.
– Unscrew the respective number of turns for the specific type of shock
absorber in a clockwise direction.
Type White Power 1218X758.............. 2 turns

Rebound damping of shock absorber

By using the adjusting screw
be adjusted. Turn the knob to the right side to increase damping, turn it to
the left side to reduce damping during rebounding.
STANDARD ADJUSTMENT:
– Turn the adjusting screw clockwise to the stop.
– Then turn the adjusting screw counterclockwise, counting the number of
clicks that corresponds to the respective type of shock absorber.
Type White Power 1218X758 ..............26 clicks
