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):
25 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)
INSTRUMENT AND CONTROL FUNCTIONS
NOTE:
Although the total number of clicks of
the rebound damping force adjusting
mechanism may not exactly match the
above specifications due to small differ-
ences in production, the actual number
of clicks always represents the entire
adjusting range. To obtain a precise ad-
justment, it would be advisable to check
the number of clicks of the rebound
damping force adjusting mechanism
and to modify the specifications as nec-
essary.
Compression damping force
1. Compression damping force adjusting screw
2. Position indicator

To harden the compression damping,
decrease the setting by turning the ad-
justing screw. To soften the compres-
sion damping, increase the setting by
turning the adjusting screw. Make sure
that the position indicator is aligned
with the appropriate setting.
Compression damping setting:
Minimum (soft):
6
Standard:
4
Maximum (hard):
