THE PERFECT FIT
Rear Suspension Adjustments
Torsion Spring Preload
To adjust rear torsion spring preload, rotate the three-position cam using
the engine spark plug tool. This adjustment is easier to make if tension
is relieved from the spring. Exercise extreme caution if you use this
method of adjustment, and follow the steps below carefully.
WARNING! A sudden release of tension from a spring could result in serious
injury. Wear eye protection and maintain a firm grip on the spring when
removing and installing it.
1. Grasp the spring firmly with both hands.
2. Maintain a firm grip on the spring and carefully remove the long leg
from the guide block. Be prepared for a sudden release of tension.
3. Carefully allow the leg to unwind and relieve tension from the cam.
4. Rotate the cam to the desired setting.
5. Rewind the long leg of the spring. Maintain a firm grip on the spring
while reinstalling it into the guide block.
Tip: Different rate torsion springs may be available if a firmer ride is desired.
