If the bike feels high, has bad grip at throttle opening and feels rough over small or medium bumps during acceleration, open the compression adjuster two [2] clicks. Test run and make necessary corrections. When you have sufficient feel of the motorcycle you can make further fine adjustments.
When you feel you have achieved an improvement, go back to where you started and check once more. Note other relevant factors such as tyres, temperature etc. Test run to make sure whether further fine adjustments should be made.
Compression damping controls the energy absorption when the shock absorber is being compressed, therefore, controls how easy the shock absorber compresses when the rear wheel is being loaded or hits a bump. |
