Compression damping of shock absorber
The shock absorber on these models can synchronize the compression damp-
ing in the low and high-speed range separately (Dual Compression Control).
Low and high speed refers to the movement of the shock absorber during com-
pression 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 compres-
sion 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 HIGH-SPEED SETTING:
– turn the adjusting screw [2] to the limit in a clockwise direction using a
box wrench.
– unscrew the respective number of turns for the specific type of shock absorber
in a counterclockwise direction.

The damping unit of the shock absorber is filled with high-compression nitro-
gen. Never try to take the shock absorber apart or to do any maintenance work
yourself. Severe injuries could be the result.
Never unscrew the black screw connection [3] (24mm).

Rebound damping of shock absorber
By using the adjusting screw [4], the degree of damping of the rebound can
be adjusted. Turn the knob clockwise to increase damping, turn it counter-
clockwise 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.

The damping unit of the shock absorber is filled with high-compression nitro-
gen. Never try to take the shock absorber apart or to do any maintenance work
yourself. Severe injuries could be the result.
Never unscrew the black screw connection [5] (15mm).
