Front Suspension Adjustments
(cont’d)
Adjustments for Competition 137
Recommended Setting
Begin with the standard setting. If the suspension
is too stiff/soft, adjust to the stiff/soft setting of the
recommended setting.
When adjusting the left fork to the recommended
setting, adjust the rebound and compression
damping adjuster to the standard settings.
Standard:
Soft:
Medium-stiff:
Stiff:
If the suspension is too stiff/soft, adjust according
to the Suspension Adjustment Guidelines
(page 145).
Inner Chamber Air Pressure
When adjusting the left fork air pressure, adjust the
inner chamber air pressure first, then the outer
chamber air pressure, and finally the balance
chamber air pressure.
1. Place an optional workstand under the engine,
so that the front wheel is off the ground.
2. Remove the valve cap (1) and clean the area
around the inner chamber air valve (2).
3. Adjust the inner chamber air pressure.
• Air fork pump 07AMJ-KRNA100
(USA only)
• Air fork pump adapter 07AMJ-KRNA110
(USA only)
When releasing air pressure from the inner
chamber, the fork will be shortened.
When applying air pressure to the inner chamber,
the fork will be extended.
Do not adjust the inner chamber air pressure to a
level that is outside the minimum or maximum
level.
