Adjusting The Spring Preload; Static Sag Load Test - Beta Motorcycles RR 350 EFI 2019 Mode D'emploi

ADJUSTING THE SPRING PRELOAD

Loosen counter-ring E, rotate ring F clock-
wise to increase the spring preload (and
consequently the shock absorber preload)
or anticlockwise to decrease it. After ob-
taining the desired preload, turn counter-
ring E until it stops against adjusting ring F.
For standard setting, refer to page 11.
NOTE: for the handling of ring nuts use the
specific wrench provided in the standard
tool kit shown in the figure.

STATIC SAG LOAD TEST

To verify the static sag of the shock ab-
sorber proceed as follows:
- Place the motorcycle on the work stand.
- Measure the vertical distance between
the rear wheel axle and a reference point
on the rear fairings.
- Write down the dimension H
- Remove the work stand.
- Keep the motorcycle in vertical position
and measure again the distance between
the wheel axle and the reference point
previously established.
- Write down the dimension H
Verify that the value of the static compres-
sion X = H - H matches the one shown
1 2
on page 11. Otherwise, perform the
adjustment of the spring preload as de-
scribed above.
