AWARNING |
|
• Use only nitrogen to pressurize the shock absorber. The use of an unstable gas can cause a fire or explosion resulting in serious injury. • The shock absorber contains nitrogen under high pressure. Do not allow fire or heat near the shock absorber. • Before disposal of the shock absorber, release the nitrogen by pressing the valve core. Then remove the valve from the shock absorber. |
• Keep grease off of the brake pads and disc.
• A contaminated brake disc or pad reduces stopping power. Discard contaminated pads and clean a contaminated disc with a high quality brake degreasing agent.
• When servicing the rear wheel or suspension support the motorcycle using a workstand or equivalent under the engine.
• For optimum suspension performance and linkage component service life, the swingarm and shock linkage pivot bearing (along with related seals and bushings) should be disassembled, cleaned, inspected for wear and lubricated with multi-purpose grease NLGI No.2 (molybdenum disulfide additive) every 7.5 hours of operation (competition use only).
• Optional rear wheel sprockets, drive chain, shock springs and spring preload pin spanners are available. For optional parts (page 1-37).
• For brake system information (page 16-3).
• Use genuine Honda replacement bolts and nuts for all suspension pivot and mounting points.
