4. Pengaturan (Instalasi)

Proper installation is crucial for the performance and safety of your OHLINS suspension. If you are not confident in performing this procedure, seek assistance from a professional motorcycle mechanic.

Langkah-langkah Instalasi Umum:

1. Siapkan Sepeda Motor: Secure the motorcycle on a suitable stand so that the rear wheel is off the ground and the swingarm can move freely.
2. Remove Original Shocks: Carefully remove the original rear shock absorbers, noting the orientation of all components, including washers and spacers.
3. Spacer Check: For Dyna Glide Family models, the number of included spacers may vary depending on the specific vehicle. If additional spacers are required for proper fitment, they must be purchased separately (OHLINS part number 3118-19). Ensure correct spacing to prevent interference and ensure proper alignment.
4. Install OHLINS Shocks: Mount the OHLINS S36PR1C1LB suspension units, ensuring all bolts are correctly aligned and hand-tightened. Pay attention to the orientation of the piggyback reservoir and adjusters.
5. Pengencang Torsi: Refer to your motorcycle's service manual for the correct torque specifications for the upper and lower shock mounting bolts. Tighten all fasteners to the specified torque.
6. Penyesuaian Awal: Before riding, set the spring preload, rebound, and compression damping to the recommended base settings provided in the OHLINS documentation (if available) or to a neutral starting point.
7. Pemeriksaan Akhir: Before riding, double-check all fasteners, ensure no cables or hoses are pinched, and verify that the suspension moves freely through its full travel without obstruction.

5. Operasional (Penyesuaian)

The OHLINS S36PR1C1LB offers several adjustments to tailor the suspension performance to your riding style, load, and road conditions.

5.1. Spring Preload Adjustment

Spring preload determines the initial compression of the spring and affects the motorcycle's ride height and sag. Adjusting preload requires a C-spanner (not included) to turn the spring collar.

• Increase Preload: Turn the spring collar to compress the spring further. This raises the ride height and reduces sag, suitable for heavier loads or more aggressive riding.
• Decrease Preload: Turn the spring collar to release spring compression. This lowers the ride height and increases sag, suitable for lighter loads or a softer ride.
• Pengaturan Sag: Consult your motorcycle's service manual or OHLINS guidelines for recommended sag settings. Sag is typically measured as the difference between the suspension's fully extended length and its length with the rider on board.

5.2. Rebound DampPenyesuaian

Reboundamping controls the speed at which the shock absorber extends after compression. The adjuster is typically a knob or screw located at the bottom of the shock body.

• Increase Rebound (Slower): Turn the adjuster clockwise (or as indicated by markings). This slows down the extension, preventing the wheel from 'kicking up' over bumps.
• Decrease Rebound (Faster): Turn the adjuster counter-clockwise (or as indicated by markings). This speeds up the extension, allowing the wheel to follow the ground more effectively over successive bumps.

5.3. Compression DampPenyesuaian

Kompresiamping controls the speed at which the shock absorber compresses. The adjuster is typically a knob or screw located on the piggyback reservoir.

• Increase Compression (Firmer): Turn the adjuster clockwise (or as indicated by markings). This makes the suspension feel firmer, resisting bottoming out under heavy loads or hard braking.
• Decrease Compression (Softer): Turn the adjuster counter-clockwise (or as indicated by markings). This makes the suspension feel softer, absorbing small bumps more effectively.

5.4. Ride Height Adjustment

The S36PR1C1LB allows for a ride height adjustment of +/- 5mm. This adjustment is typically made by rotating the lower shock eyelet or a dedicated adjuster ring on the shock body. Consult the specific OHLINS documentation for the exact procedure.

• Adjusting Ride Height: Loosen the lock ring (if present) and rotate the adjuster to increase or decrease the overall length of the shock.
• Kencangkan kembali: Always re-tighten the lock ring after adjustment to prevent unwanted changes during operation.

Penting: Make small, incremental adjustments and test the motorcycle's handling in a safe environment after each change. Keep a record of your settings.

6. Pemeliharaan

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and consistent performance of your OHLINS suspension.

• Pembersihan: Keep the shock absorbers clean. Wash them regularly with water and mild soap. Avoid high-pressure washers directly on seals.
• Inspeksi: Periodically inspect the shock bodies, springs, seals, and mounting points for any signs of damage, wear, corrosion, or oil leaks. Check for loose fasteners.
• Kondisi Segel: Pay close attention to the condition of the shaft seals. If oil leakage is observed, the shock requires service.
• Interval Servis: OHLINS recommends periodic service by an authorized service center. The exact interval depends on riding conditions and usage, but typically ranges from 20,000 to 40,000 km or every 1-2 years.
• Penyimpanan: If storing the motorcycle for an extended period, ensure the suspension is clean and free of contaminants.
