Control functions TIP When removing the connector, the sound of air escaping may be heard, but this is from the pump hose, not the shock absorber. 7. Install the air valve cap. Compression damping setting: Minimum (soft): 12 click(s) in direction (b)* Standard: 6 click(s) in direction (b)* Maximum (hard): 2 click(s) in direction (b)* * With the adjusting knob fully turned in direction (a) Rebound damping force The rebound damping force of each shock absorber can be adjusted by turning its rebound damping force adjusting knob. To increase the rebound damping force, turn the adjusting knob in direction (a). To decrease the rebound damping force, turn the adjusting knob in direction (b). TIP If the front shock absorber bottoms too easily or rolls too much during cornering, increase the air pressure by 34 kPa (0.3 kgf/cm², 5 psi). If the shock absorber is too firm and you want a more compliant ride, decrease the air pressure by 34 kPa (0.3 kgf/cm², 5 psi). ESU10926 Adjusting the damping forces of the front shock absorbers (FX10) EWS00740 WARNING The damping forces of the left and right shock absorbers must be adjusted to the same settings. Uneven settings can cause poor handling and loss of stability. Compression damping force The compression damping force of each shock absorber can be adjusted by turning its compression damping force adjusting knob. To increase the compression damping force, turn the adjusting knob in direction (a). To decrease the compression damping force, turn the adjusting knob in direction (b). 1. Rebound damping force adjusting knob Rebound damping setting: Minimum (soft): 20 click(s) in direction (b)* Standard: 11 click(s) in direction (b)* Maximum (hard): 3 click(s) in direction (b)* * With the adjusting knob fully turned in direction (a) TIP The damping forces will not decrease past the minimum levels even if the adjusting knobs are turned out more than the minimum settings. 1.
