Changing Motorcycle Track Alignment - Ducati SBK749R 2005 Anleitung- Und Instandhaltungsheft

Changing motorcycle track alignment (fig. 37)
Motorcycle track alignment is the result of tests carried
out under different riding conditions by our technical staff.
Modifying the factory setting is a very delicate operation,
which may lead to serious damage if carried out by
unskilled people.
Before changing the standard setting, measure the
reference value (H, fig. 37).
The rider can modify track alignment according to his/her
needs by changing the working position of the shock
absorber,
increasing/decreasing the distance between the centres
of linkage (2), loosening the nuts (3) of the ball joints (1)
by turning socket (4).
When finished, tighten the nuts (3) to 25 Nm.
Notes
Please note that the lower nut (3) has a left-hand
thread.
Warning
Length of linkage (2), included between the two joint
center lines (1), should not exceed 285 mm.
