REAR SHOCK ABSORBERS
TVS XL100 is provided with 5 step adjustable rear
shock absorbers to meet different load condition.
There are 5 notches for adjusting spring load. If the
spring is adjusted to the minimum notch, then the
shock absorber will be softer which is good for light
loads. If the spring is adjusted to maximum notch,
then it will be stiffer which is good for heavy loads.
Adjust the spring pre-load by shifting the adjuster
to the required notch according to the different
load condition. The more you compress the shock
absorber spring, the suspension becomes more stiff.
