REAR-WHEEL SUSPENSION
For maintenance intervals, see page 75 (PERI-
ODIC MAINTENANCE CHARTS) under:
- Rear damper/shock absorber.
The rear-wheel suspension consists of:
- a damper/linkage unit.
The unit is connected:
- at the top (damper head) to the frame;
- at the bottom (linkage) to the rear fork.
ADJUSTMENT OF DAMPER SPRING PRELOAD
The basic setting of the suspension is done by
FANTIC MOTOR. If different use is required, the
setting may be customised according to the type
of road to travelled.
Proceed as follows:
- Loosen the counter-ring nut (2) using a hook
wrench or aluminium turning pin.
- Turn the adjusting ring nut (1) to the required
position in relation to your weight and riding
style.
- Tighten the counter-ring nut (2) (torque
wrench setting of 5 kgm).
ADJUSTMENT OF HYDRAULIC BRAKE DAMP-
ER
The damper/shock absorber has separate ad-
justments for the compression stroke and the
extension stroke.
COMPRESSION
Standard setting:
- low damping speed:
fully close and more 10 clicks (adjusting RA)
- high damping speed:
fully open (adjusting RB)
To restore the standard setting, turn the upper
adjusting rings (RA) and (RB) clockwise as far as
the fully closed position and then turn back for
the number of clicks indicated above.
To obtain smooter braking action, turn the ad-
justing device counter-clockwise; reverse the di-
rection to obtain harder braking action.
