SETTING
EC722011
Front fork setting
The front fork setting should be made depend-
ing on the rider's feeling of an actual run and
the circuit conditions.
The front fork setting includes the following
three factors:
1. Setting of air spring characteristics
• Change the fork oil level.
2. Setting of spring preload
• Change the spring.
• Install the adjustment washer.
3. Setting of damping force
• Change the compression damping.
• Change the rebound damping.
The spring acts on the load and the
damping force acts on the cushion travel
speed.
EC723001
Change in level and characteristics of fork
oil
Damping characteristic near the final stroke
can be changed by changing the fork oil
amount.
CAUTION:
Adjust the oil level in 5 mm (0.2 in) incre-
ments or decrements. Too low oil level
causes the front fork to produce a noise at
full rebound or the rider to feel some pres-
sure on his hands or body. Alternatively, too
high oil level will develop unexpectedly early
oil lock with the consequent shorter front
fork travel and deteriorated performance
and characteristics. Therefore, adjust the
front fork within the specified range.
Standard oil level:
130 mm (5.12 in)
* 127 mm (5.00 in)
** 125 mm (4.92 in)
Extent of adjustment:
95 ~ 150 mm (3.74 ~ 5.91 in)
From top of outer tube with
inner tube and damper rod fully
compressed without spring.
* For EUROPE
** For AUS, NZ and ZA
