Changing motorcycle track alignment (fig. 19.2) Motorcycle track alignment is the result of tests carried out under different riding conditions by our technical staff. Modifying factory setting is a very delicate operation, which may lead to serious damages if carried out by unskilled people. Before changing standard setting, measure the reference value (H, fig. 19.1). The rider can modify track alignment according to his/her needs by changing working position of the rear shock absorber, increasing/decreasing the distance between the centers of linkage (2), loosening the nuts (3) of the ball joints (1). When finished, tighten the nuts (3). Note Please note that the lower nut (3) has left threading. Warning Length of linkage (2), included between the two joint center lines (1), should not exceed 261 mm. E fig. 19.1 fig. 19.2 27
