Important
Bold reference numbers in this section identify parts not shown in the figures alongside the text, but which can be found in the exploded view diagram.
Rear suspension system
The rear suspension system uses a hydraulic mono-shock absorber (11) with rebound and spring preload adjustment.
This system consists of a rocker arm (18) and two linkages (10) and (12) fixed to the swingarm and the engine.
The shock absorber is pivot-mounted to the swingarm at the lower end and to the engine at the upper end. This system gives the motorcycle excellent stability.
To adjust the rear shock absorber refer to sect. 4 - 3, Adjusting the rear shock absorber.
