5.9 ADJUSTING REAR SHOCK ABSORBERS
• The shock absorbers are equipped with a spring preload ring
nut, with which it is possible to adjust the vehicle's behaviour
depending on the load carried, how the vehicle is driven and
where.
• The adjustment is carried out using the wrench supplied, by
acting on the ring nut located in the bottom section of the shock
absorbers (Fig. 35); turn it anti-clockwise to increase the
1
spring preload (heavier load).

There are four adjustment positions:
1) Position one: driver only
2) Position two: driver and luggage case
3
3) Position three: driver and passenger
4) Position four: driver, passenger and luggage case.

Adjust both shock absorbers according to the same ad-
justment index. An unbalanced adjustment may com-
promise the vehicle's stability.
While riding with a passenger, preload the shock ab-
sorber spring at position '3'.
When adjusting, wear gloves to protect yourself against
scratching.
