TIP
● A special wrench can be obtained at a
Yamaha dealer to make this adjustment.
● The spring preload setting is determined
by measuring distance A, shown in the il-
lustration. The shorter distance A is, the
lower the spring preload; the longer dis-
tance A is, the higher the spring preload.
With each complete turn of the adjusting
nut, distance A is changed by 1.5 mm
(0.06 in).
