[. . . ] NOTE Learn to control your slides safely by practising at low speed on flat ground with no inclination. TUNING TUNING THE FRONT SUSPENSION The front suspension is formed by two wishbone arms with 2 multipleadjustment ÖHLINS shock absorbers. To suit various riding conditions, the spring preload of the shock absorber can be adjusted or the spring can be replaced with an optional one. The force may be adjusted easily so there is no need to change the hydraulic oil density. (A) the lower part of the shock absorber by hand. To adjust the rebound, turn the knob (B) on There is a possible 22 "clicks" (adjustments) in total. Turn the knob clockwise to reach the end, then it is completely closed. Turn the knob anti-clockwise 7 "clicks", now it is at the standard setting. At 0 "clicks" the rebound is hard, oppositely, at 22 "clicks" the rebound would be very soft. (B) WARNING Always adjust the right and left absorbers to the same level. Unequal adjustments will cause handling problems and loss of stability, with the subsequent risk of accident. Adjusting the compression Adjusting the rebound WARNING Suspension parts will be hot during operation. Never touch the compression adjustment, the rebound adjustment nor the oil reservoir with bare hands nor with any other part of the body until the compression components have cooled down. To adjust the compression, turn the knob (A) on the upper part of the shock absorber by hand. Fully soft compression is at 38 "clicks". -32- TUNING THE REAR SUSPENSION The rear suspension is composed of an aluminium alloy swing arm with no welding. For example: 1000 meters (3200 ft) altitude with an air temperature of 35°C, correction factor 0. 94. Using the corresponding correction factor, select the correct minimum jet and mixture. For example: For a correction factor of 0. 94, multiply the jet size by this number. Find your correction factor for the jet needle and air adjustment screw chart and change the jet needle clip position and airscrew opening as indicated. - Opening the air adjustment screw: 1 1/2 + 1 turn = 2 1/2 turns outwards. Specification 7 38 N1EC 185 - Adjust the mixture until the engine responds satisfactorily with the carburettor valve open. - If the mixture is too lean, the engine tends to over heat and could seize. On the other hand, if the mixture is too rich, the spark plug becomes humid and may cause faults. The correct mixture will vary according to atmospheric conditions, note the conditions first then adjust the fuel mixture. NOTE Note the components of the carburettor that control the fuel flow and air flow adjustment screw, ensure they are correctly adjusted. -35- T E M P E R A T U R E (ºC) (ºF) 30 40 (104) 30 (86) 20 (68) 10 (50) 0 (32) -10 (14) 00 20 m (9 6 00 00 ft) 10 m (6 4 00 00 m Se a (3 2 00 ft) ALTITUDE le ve l ft) 0. 86 0. 88 0. 90 0. 92 0. 94 0. 96 0. 98 1. 00 1. 02 1. 04 1. 06 CORRECTION FACTOR NEEDLE POSITION / AIR ADJUSTMENT SCREW CORRECTION FACTOR NEEDLE POSITION AIR SCREW OPENING 1. 06 or More LOWER THE CLIP 1 POSITION TIGHTEN 1 TURN 1. 06 - 1. 02 EQUAL TIGHTEN 1/2 TURN 1. 02 - 0. 98 EQUAL EQUAL 0. 98 - 0. 94 EQUAL LOOSEN 1/2 TURN 0. 94 or Lower LIFT THE CLIP 1 POSITION LOOSEN 1 TURN -36- PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENTS Lubricate MAINTENANCE CHART Change Check The first revision must be performed by a specialised workshop at 500 km or after two fuel tanks.
