INSTRUMENT AND CONTROL FUNCTIONS able at a Yamaha dealer. 4. To increase the spring rate and thereby harden the suspension, increase the air pressure with an air pump or compressed air. To decrease the spring rate and thereby soften the suspension, decrease the air pressure by pushing each valve stem down. 1. Front fork air valve cap 2. Front fork air valve 5. Securely install the air valve caps. 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 3. Check the air pressure in each fork leg with an air pressure gauge. Spring rate: Minimum/standard (soft): Air pressure = 40 kPa (5.7 psi) (0.4 kgf/cm2) Maximum (hard): Air pressure = 100 kPa (14 psi) (1.0 kgf/cm2) ECA10090 CAUTION: Never exceed the maximum air pressure, otherwise the front fork oil seals may become damaged. EWA11180 1. Air pressure gauge NOTE: An optional air pressure gauge is avail- WARNING There must be no difference in air pressure between the left and right fork legs, otherwise poor handling and loss of stability may result. 3-11
