Rebound damping force
The rebound damping force is adjusted
on the right front fork leg only. To in-
crease the rebound damping force and
thereby harden the rebound damping,
turn the adjusting screw in direction (a).
To decrease the rebound damping
force and thereby soften the rebound
damping, turn the adjusting screw in di-
rection (b).
TIP
Be sure to perform this adjustment on
the right front fork leg.
Compression damping force
The compression damping force is ad-
justed on the left front fork leg only. 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).
TIP
Be sure to perform this adjustment on
the left front fork leg.
