To increase the spring preload and thereby
harden the suspension, turn the adjusting ring
in direction (a). To decrease the spring pre-
load and thereby soften the suspension, turn
the adjusting ring in direction (b).
TIP
The spring preload can be further adjusted by
changing the position of the spring seat.
Have a Yamaha dealer make this adjustment
as it requires special tools.
