Control functions air pressure, push the black bleed valve button. NOTICE: Do not exceed 1034 kPa (10.3 kgf/cm², 150 psi). [ECS00733] 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. 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 (PZ50GT) 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. 1. Bleed valve button Air pressure range: PZ50RT 345-1034 kPa (3.5-10.3 kgf/cm², 50-150 psi) Recommended air pressure: PZ50RT 483 kPa (4.8 kgf/cm², 70 psi) TIP To allow pressure to escape from the pump and the shock absorber, push the button halfway down and hold it. To allow only a small amount of pressure to escape, push the button all the way down and quickly release it. 6. Remove the hose connector from the air valve. 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). 28
