How to install Adjustments
Warning!
This shock absorber was designed for use
on Triumph Street Triple and STreet Triple
motorcycles only and should not be installed on
any other manufacturer’s motorcycle. Installing
this shock absorber on any other manufacturer’s
motorcycle will affect the performance, stability
and handling of the motorcycle. This may affect
the rider’s ability to control the motorcycle and
could cause an accident.
Warning!
Always have Triumph approved parts,
accessories and conversions fitted by a trained
technician of an authorised Triumph dealer. The
fitment of parts, accessories and conversions by
a technician who is not of an authorised Triumph
dealer may affect the handling, stability or other
aspects of the motorcycle’s operation which
may result in loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
Warning!
Throughout this operation, ensure that the
motorcycle is stabilised and adequately
supported to prevent risk of injury from the
motorcycle falling.
1
Put the motorcycle on a workstand so that
the rear wheel barely touches the ground.
2
Remove the original shock absorber. Consult
your Vehicle Service Manual.
Warning!
Before riding, always make sure that the basic
settings made by Öhlins are intact.
Warning!
For road use, the spring pre-load and shock
absorber length shall not be changed from the
standard settings. Any attempt to adjust the
spring pre-load or shock absorber length could
result in a dangerous riding condition leading to
loss of control and an accident.
Note!
Recommendation: Before installing the Öhlins
shock absorber clean the vehicle thoroughly.
3
Install the Öhlins shock absorber with the
reservoir to the left. Do not tighten the
attachment bolts yet.
Note!
Lower the motorcycle so that the shock
absorber is slightly compressed, before
tightening the screws.
4
Tighten the attachment bolts to the correct
torque according to the Triumph specs.
Note!
Make sure that all screws are tightened to the
correct torque and that nothing fouls or restricts
movement of the shock absorber when the
suspension is fully compressed or extended.
1 Spring pre-load
Use a C-spanner. Turn the spring platform nut
(A) clockwise to increase the spring pre-load,
turn counter clockwise to decrease it. Lock
the setting with the lock nut (B).
2 Compression
Adjust by turning the knob on top of the
reservoir. Turn clockwise to increase
damping, turn counter clockwise to decrease.
3 Rebound
Turn the wheel on the piston shaft above the
end eye/ bracket. Turn clockwise to increase
damping, turn counter clockwise to decrease.
Note!
When delivered the Öhlins shock absorber is
dialed to recommended settings for the specific
brand and make of the vehicle. If you have
changed the setting, reset according to the
setup data in the Mounting Instruction.
To reset: The adjuster has a right hand thread.
Turn the adjuster clockwise to fully closed
(pos. zero [0]). Turn counter clockwise to
open and count the clicks until you reach the
recommended number in the Set-up data.
Caution!
Do not use force, delicate sealing surfaces can
be damaged. Handtighten only.
4 Length
We advise to remove the shock absorber
before adjusting the length. Use two
wrenches. Hold the upper nut with one
hand, and at the same time loosen the lock
nut (lower nut). Turn the end eye/ bracket
to the desired length. 1 turn = 1 mm length
adjustment. Lock the lock nut. Tightening
torque: 40 Nm
