Adjusting the front fork
This front fork is equipped with spring
preload adjusting bolts, rebound damp-
ing force adjusting knobs and compres-
sion damping force adjusting screws.

Always adjust both fork legs equal-
ly, otherwise poor handling and loss
of stability may result.

rection (a). To decrease the spring pre-
load and thereby soften the
suspension, turn the adjusting bolt on
each fork leg in direction (b).

justing mechanism with the top of the
