CAUTION:
ECA10100
Never attempt to turn an adjusting
mechanism beyond the maximum orminimum settings.NOTE:Although the total number of clicks of a
damping force adjusting mechanism
may not exactly match the above spec-
ifications 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 num-
ber of clicks of each damping force ad-
justing mechanism and to modify thespecifications as necessary.
EAU39270
Adjusting the shock absorber
assembly This shock absorber assembly is
equipped with a spring preload adjust-
ing knob and a rebound damping force
adjusting screw. It is also equipped with
a compression damping force adjusting
bolt (for fast compression damping),
and a compression damping force ad-
justing screw (for slow compression
damping).CAUTION:
ECA10100
Never attempt to turn an adjusting
mechanism beyond the maximum orminimum settings.Spring preload
To decrease the spring preload and
thereby soften the suspension, turn the
adjusting knob in direction (a). To in-
crease the spring preload and thereby
harden the suspension, turn the adjust-
ing knob in direction (b).
Compression damping setting:
Minimum (soft):
20 click(s) in direction (b)*
Standard:
12 click(s) in direction (b)*
Maximum (hard):
1 click(s) in direction (b)*
* With the adjusting bolt fully turned in
direction (a)
1. Spring preload adjusting knob
Spring preload setting:
Minimum (soft):
0 turn(s) in direction (b)*
Standard:
6 turn(s) in direction (b)*
Maximum (hard):
20 turn(s) in direction (b)*
* With the adjusting knob fully turned
in direction (a)

Compression damping force (for slow
compression damping)To increase the compression damping
force and thereby harden the compres-
sion damping, turn the adjusting screw
in direction (a). To decrease the com-
pression damping force and thereby
soften the compression damping, turn
the adjusting screw in direction (b).
NOTE:Although the total number of clicks of a
damping force adjusting mechanism
may not exactly match the specifica-
tions listed due to small differences in
production, the actual number of clicks
always represents the entire adjust-
ment range. To obtain a precise adjust-
ment, it would be advisable to check
the number of clicks of each damping
force adjusting mechanism and to mod-ify the specifications as necessary.
WARNING
EWA10220
This shock absorber contains highly
pressurized nitrogen gas. For prop-
er handling, read and understand
the following information before
handling the shock absorber. The
manufacturer cannot be held re-
sponsible for property damage or
personal injury that may result from
improper handling.
Do not tamper with or attempt to
open the gas cylinder.
Do not subject the shock ab-
sorber to an open flame or other
high heat sources, otherwise it
may explode due to excessive
gas pressure.
Do not deform or damage the
gas cylinder in any way, as this
will result in poor damping per-
formance.
Always have a Yamaha dealerservice the shock absorber.
Compression damping setting (for
fast compression damping):
Minimum (soft):
42 click(s) in direction (b)*
Standard:
30 click(s) in direction (b)*
Maximum (hard):
1 click(s) in direction (b)*
* With the adjusting bolt fully turned in
direction (a)
Compression damping setting (for
slow compression damping):
Minimum (soft):
17 click(s) in direction (b)*
Standard:
10 click(s) in direction (b)*
Maximum (hard):
1 click(s) in direction (b)*
* With the adjusting screw fully turned
in direction (a)

MOTORCYCLE CARE AND STORAGE
7-2
7 den part of the windshield to
make sure that it does not leave
any marks. If the windshield is
scratched, use a quality plastic
polishing compound after
washing.
After normal use
Remove dirt with warm water, a mild
detergent, and a soft, clean sponge,
and then rinse thoroughly with clean
water. Use a toothbrush or bottlebrush
for hard-to-reach areas. Stubborn dirt
and insects will come off more easily if
the area is covered with a wet cloth for
a few minutes before cleaning.
After riding in the rain, near the sea oron salt-sprayed roadsSince sea salt or salt sprayed on roads
during winter are extremely corrosive in
combination with water, carry out the
following steps after each ride in the
rain, near the sea or on salt-sprayed
roads.
NOTE:Salt sprayed on roads in the winter mayremain well into spring.
1. Clean the motorcycle with cold wa-
ter and a mild detergent, after the
engine has cooled down.CAUTION:
ECA10790
Do not use warm water since it in-
creases the corrosive action of thesalt.
2. After drying the motorcycle, apply
a corrosion protection spray on all
metal, including chrome- and nick-
el-plated, surfaces (except the tita-
nium muffler) to prevent corrosion.
Cleaning the titanium mufflerThis model is equipped with a titanium
muffler, which requires the following
special care.
Use only a soft, clean cloth or
sponge with mild detergent and
water to clean the titanium muffler.
However, if the muffler cannot bethoroughly cleaned with mild de-
tergent, alkaline products and a
soft brush may be used.
Never use compounds or other
special treatments to clean the tita-
nium muffler, as they will remove
the finish on the outer surface of
the muffler.
Even the smallest amounts of oil,
such as from oily towels or finger-
prints, will leave stains on the tita-
nium muffler, which can be
removed with a mild detergent.
Note that the thermally induced
discoloring of the portion of the ex-
haust pipe leading into the titanium
muffler is normal and cannot be re-
moved.
After cleaning
1. Dry the motorcycle with a chamois
or an absorbing cloth.
2. Immediately dry the drive chain
and lubricate it to prevent it from
rusting.
3. Use a chrome polish to shine
chrome, aluminum and stainless-
steel parts.
