TIP
Although the total number of clicks of a damping
force adjusting mechanism may not exactly match
the above specifications due to small differences
in production, the actual number of clicks always
represents the entire adjusting range. To obtain a
precise adjustment, it would be advisable to check
the number of clicks of each damping force adjust-
ing mechanism and to modify the specifications as
necessary.
WARNING


Suspension components become hot dur-
ing operation. Never touch the compres-
sion damping force adjusting screw, the
rebound damping force adjusting screw or
the oil reservoir with your bare hand or
skin until suspension components have
cooled.


Always adjust the shock absorber assem-
blies on the left and right side to the same
setting. Uneven adjustment can cause
poor handling and loss of stability, which
could lead to an accident.

the engine oil also lubricates the clutch), do
not mix any chemical additives with oil. Do
not use oils with a diesel specification of
“CD” or oils of a higher quality than speci-
fied. In addition, do not use oils labeled
“ENERGY CONSERVING II” or higher.


Make sure that no foreign material enters
the crankcase.
