Spring Preload
Turn the knob on the hydraulic preload
adjuster to set the spring preload. Turn
clockwise to increase the preload, turn
counter clockwise to deacrease it.
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 the recommended settings
for the specifi c vehicle model. If you have
changed the setting, reset according to the
following:
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 (see Set-up Data).
CAUTION!
Do not use force, delicate sealing surfaces
can be damaged. Handtighten only.
Length
We recommend you to adjust the length
before installing the shock absorber to
the vehicle. 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.
Lock the lock nut.
Tightening torque: 40 Nm
WARNING!
The adjustable end eye/bracket must not be
threaded out more than that the groove is fully
visible beneath the lock nut. This is maximum
length. After adjusting, make sure that the lock
nut is tightened.
HOW TO INSTALL
1
Put the motorcycle on a workstand so that the
rear wheel barely touches the ground.
WARNING!
Make sure the vehicle is securely supported so
that it will not tip.
2
Loosen and gently fold down the lower belt
drive cover, without removing it from the
vehicle.
3
Remove the horn.
4
Loosen the nut to the front attachment of the
original shock absorber. Remove the rear at-
tachment screws.
7
Install the Öhlins shock absorber. Lead the hy-
draulic preload adjuster hose between the pull
rods, between the gear box and brake hoses,
out to the right side of the vehicle. Temporarily
leave it while attaching the shock absorber.
8
Fasten the front and the rear shock absorber
attachments and the triangle link, do not
tighten yet.
9
Tighten the front and rear shock absorber at-
tachments and the triangle link.
10
Loosen the screw to the lower brake hose, as
indicated in the fi gure. Loosen the tie wrap to
the upper hose. Lead the hose to the hydraulic
preload adjuster in between.
11
Install the hydraulic preload adjuster to the
bracket provided in this kit, attach the adjuster
and the bracket to the lower screw of the pas-
senger foot peg bracket.
NOTE!
Lower the motorcycle so that the shock absorber
is slightly compressed, before tightening the
screws.
NOTE!
Recommendation! Before installing the Öhlins
shock absorber:
• clean the vehicle thoroughly
• adjust the length of the shock absorber (check
the headlight angle after adjusting the length!)
12
Reattach the horn and the belt drive cover.
Make sure that all removed parts are installed
in the same way as they were before the instal-
lation.
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 sus-
pension is being fully compressed or extended.
