The rear shock absorber has external commands that enable you to adjust the setting to suit the load on the motorcycle.
The adjuster (1, fig. 111) Located on the lower connection holding the shock absorber to the swingarm adjusts the damping during the rebound phase (return).
The knob (2, fig. 112), Located on the left side of the motorcycle, adjusts the preload of the shock absorber external spring.
The knob (3, fig. 113) Located on the expansion reservoir of the shock absorber adjusts the damping during the compression phase.
Turning the adjusters (1) or the knobs (2) and (3) clockwise to increase preload damping; they decrease turning them in the opposite direction.
Standard setting; from fully closed (clockwise) loosen: adjuster (1, fig. 111) By 12 clicks; knob (2, fig. 112) Fully open (counter clockwise); adjuster (3, fig. 113) By 25 clicks.
Warning
The shock absorber is filled with gas under pressure and may cause severe damage if taken apart by unskilled persons.
When carrying a passenger and luggage, set the rear shock absorber spring to proper preload to improve motorcycle handling and keep safe clearance from the ground. It may also be necessary to adjust the rebound damping accordingly.

The immobilizer system
For additional antitheft protection, the motorcycle is
equipped with an immobilizer, an electronic system that
locks the engine automatically whenever the ignition switch
is turned off.
The grip of each ignition key contains an electronic device
that modulates the output signal from a special ...
Refitting the filler cap
Position seal (18) in tank cap (10) as shown and reassemble following the
removal procedure in the reverse sequence.
In particular tighten the screws (17) to a torque of 3 nm +/- 10% (sect. 3 - 3,
Frame torque settings).

Specific operating strategies
Idle speed
No electric motor is used for idle speed regulation (bypass is modulated
instead with the throttle valve), as idle speed
control is effected by the ride-by-wire system. Idle speed is maintained by the
control unit when the speed drops below a
specific threshold and when the clutch ...
