How to - rear suspension adjustment
HOW TO - REAR SUSPENSION ADJUSTMENT.
Rear Suspension is all about PRE-LOAD and DAMPING.
Pre-load is specific for each riders weight.
Damping is specific for ridding style.
Here is the generic "How to" - Download this and take it to your bike.
Motorcycle Suspension Road/Race Setup Method
Below are the specific adjusters for CBR1000F - from the Owners Manual. ( You can download this OWNERS MANUAL from my link below)
At the end I have included my own adjustment figures so you can see how I worked it out.
These figures will be specific for my weight and the age of my bike (Sag of rear spring due to usage / age). You will need to do your own measurements specific for yourself and your bike.
