Suspension adjustment

[Carlos pinto]

Hi
How can I adjust the rear suspension on tiger 1050 abs.
Also the front suspension
Thanks

The owners manual will tell you which part does pre-load, rebound and compression. On the rear you will need a c-spanner to adjust the pre-load (from the top of my head from 13 years ago!) It is easier on the Tiger 1050 Sport as it can be adjusted by screwdriver. The front has what looks like a nut on the top of each fork leg, this does the pre-load, I think the compression is at the very top of the fork leg and by a screwdriver. Not sure on the rebound......the manual shows exactly where it is.

no c-spanner needed for the rear shock, just a flat blade screw driver for pre-load and rebound adjustmend
