HANDLING NOTE
NOTE:
The front fork requires careful attention. So it is
recommended that the front fork be main-
tained at the dealers.
CAUTION:
To prevent an accidental explosion of air,
the following instructions should be
observed:
The front fork with a built-in piston rod
has a very sophisticated internal con-
struction and is particularly sensitive to
foreign material.
Use enough care not to allow any foreign
material to come in when the oil is
replaced or when the front fork is disas-
sembled and reassembled.
Before removing the cap bolts or front
forks, be sure to extract the air from the
air chamber completely.

excessively adverse effect on the front
fork performance.
Never allow foreign materials to enter the
front fork.
Recommended oil:
Suspension oil “01”
16. After filling, pump the damper rod 1
slowly up and down more than 10 times
to distribute the fork oil.
17. Fill:
Front fork oil
Until outer tube top surface with recom-

19. Wait ten minutes until the air bubbles
have been removed from the front fork,
and the oil has dispense evenly in system
before setting recommended oil level.
NOTE:
Fill with the fork oil up to the top end of the
outer tube, or the fork oil will not spread over to
every part of the front forks, thus making it
impossible to obtain the correct level.
Be sure to fill with the fork oil up to the top of
the outer tube and bleed the front forks.
20. Measure:
Oil level (left and right) a
Out of specification → Adjust.
* For EUROPE, AUS, NZ and ZA
NOTE:
Be sure to install the spring guide 2 when
checking the oil level.
WARNING

between the maximum and minimum level
and always adjust each front fork to the
same setting. Uneven adjustment can
cause poor handling and loss of stability.
Standard oil level:
125 mm (4.92 in)
* 130 mm (5.12 in)
Extent of adjustment:
80 ~ 150 mm (3.15 ~ 5.91 in)
