MAINTENANCE WORK ON CHASSIS AND ENGINE 58
Fork/shock absorber
100177-10
The fork and the shock absorber offer many options of adapting the chassis to your riding
style and the payload.
Info
To help you adapt the vehicle, we have summarized our findings in Tableb. You
can find the table on the air filter box under the seat.
These adjustments should be understood as a guideline and should always be the basis
of your own personal chassis adaptation. Do not change the adjustments at random or by
more than ± 40%, since otherwise the riding characteristics could deteriorate, particularly
at high speeds.
