[. . . ] Always start from the standard calibration before making any change on the suspensions. The softer adjustment for the two suspensions is also used both in compression and in extension when driving at top speed, in order to have better grip of the tires. SANDY GROUND Fork: have a harder compression adjustment, or replace the standard spring with a harder one, and make a softer compression adjustment and a harder extension adjustment at the same time. shock absorber: have a harder compression , and expecially a harder extension adjustment. We advise replacing the springs of both suspensions to compensate the weight increase due to the piling of the mud. NOTE: When the fork results as either too soft or too hard for any adjustment conditions, check the oil level inside the forkrod. Remember that too much oil inside the fork will involve a more frequent air drainage. When the suspensions do not react to the changes of calibration, check that the adjusting units are not blocked. Remove plug (B) and turn register (A) clockwise until the position of fully closed is reached then, turn back by the mentioned clicks. To reset standard calibration turn register (C) clockwise to reach the position of fully closed; then, turn back by the mentioned clicks. WARNING: Never force the adjusting screws beyond the maximum opening and closure positions. -643 cm3 NOTE Flexibility index for the serial springs: K=8, 4 N/mm NOTE Always replace both the spring and the spacers to keep the preload value unchanged . OIL FORK LEVEL For the regular fork operation, both legs must be provided with the necessary oil quantity. Remove the forkrods form the fork to check the oil level inside the forkrods. Work as follows: - remove the power rod caps; - remove springs from the stems letting the oil drop into the latter; - bring forks to stroke end; - check that the level is at distance "A" below the upper limit of rods. HANDLEBAR POSITION AND HEIGHT CHANGE The handlebar position (a) and height (b) can be changed for better suiting Your driving requirements. To effect these operations, remove the upper clamp (1) and the lower one (2), after removing the fixing srews (3) and (4). A) Handlebar position change Turn the lower clamp (2) 180° to move forward or backward (10mm- 0. B) Handlebar height change Remove the lower spacer (A) then replace the screw (4) with a new one of L=65 mm (2. Once these operations are completed, tighten the screws (3) to 2, 75-3, 05 kgm (27-30 Nm; 19. ADJUSTING THE SHOCK ABSORBER The rear shock absorber must be adjusted according to the rider weight and track conditions. Take the normal riding position on the motorcycle with all your riding apparel. [. . . ] - Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe to prevent moisture from entering. - Put a cover over the motorcycle to keep dust and dirt from collecting on it. - Run the engine for about 5 minutes to warm the oil then drain the oil. CLEANING IMPORTANT RECOMMENDATION Premised that, before the motorcycle washing, it is necessary to protect opportunely from the water the following parts: a) Rear opening of the muffler; b) Clutch and brake levers, hand grips, handlebar commutators; c) Air cleaner intake; d) Fork head, wheel bearings; e) Rear suspension links, It is necessary ABSOLUTELY TO AVOID THAT HIGH PRESSURE JETS OF WATER OR AIR come to contact with THE ELECTRICAL PARTS, especially the electronic control unit (1).
