WARNING
Always adjust the shock absorbers on the
left and right sides to the same setting. Un-
even adjustment can cause poor handling
and loss of stability, which could lead to
an accident.
The spring preload can be adjusted to suit the
operating conditions. You can reduce preload
for a softer ride, or increase preload if frequent
bottoming occurs or when carrying loads.
NOTICE
Frequent or severe bottoming can cause
increased wear or damage to the vehicle.
