SUSPENSIONS
Standard suspensions setting derives from several ex-
tensive demanding tests in various usage conditions of
the TE and SMS vehicles. If you intend to use them on
more specific ground, following are a few guidelines for
setup. Always start from the suspensions standard set-
ting before making any change. Afterwards, increase or
decrease the adjusting clicks, one at a time.
HARD GROUND
Front fork: softer compression setting.
Shock absorber: softer compression setting.
SANDY GROUND
Front fork: harder compression setting.
Shock absorber: harder compression, and especially
harder rebound settings. Work on the spring preload to
lower the motorcycle riding height (rear end).
MUDDY GROUND
Front fork: harder compression setting.
Shock absorber: harder compression and rebound set-
tings; Work on the spring preload to lift the motorcycle
riding height (rear end).
WARNING*:
ALWAYS remember that all the motor-
cycles and their parts used in competi-
tions of any type are excluded from the
warranty and that all modifications to
standard configuration cause THE VE-
HICLE NON COMPLIANCE WITH TYPE-AP-
PROVAL REQUIREMENTS and it is hence
unsuitable for circulating on public
roads: consequently it may be used only
in "CLOSED CIRCUITS" by authorised sub-
jects holding the relevant driving licence
or authorisation.
