MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT
123
j
Discharge the extra oil off the left front fork cylinder
unit by pumping the piston rod to full stroke.
NOTICE
Be careful not to bend or damage the pis-
ton rod when the piston rod is stroked. Ser-
vice carefully because oil flies out from the
oil holes of the left front fork cylinder unit.
A. Piston Rod
B. Heavy Cloth
C. Pump the piston.
NOTE
Set the compression damping force setting to the
softest. Check the piston rod sliding surface for
damage. Apply specified fork oil to the piston rod
sliding surface.
Drain the extra oil from the left front fork cylinder
unit oil hole.
Blow out the extra oil from the oil hole of the left
front fork cylinder unit with the compressed air
blow to the oil hole.
Wipe the oil off completely from the fork cylinder
unit.
If you cannot use compressed air, remove the air
pressure relief screw of the left front fork base
valve assembly. Up side down the fork damper for
more than 10 minutes and drain the oil from the left
front fork cylinder unit. Reinstall and tighten the air
pressure relief screw.
