Re-preload Instructions

Only 20 psi on Voyager tires.  Make sure that motorcycle rear air shocks are at 80% capacity.  Normal tire pressure on both motorcycle tires.

1.Tools needed:  3/4”, 7/16”sockets or wrenches and a torque wrench.

2.Loosen the (8) 1/2” U-bolt nuts. (If you have the oldsuspension_lock_bar_installed_lgr_font

style suspension lock bar you will, also, need to loosen the (2)3/8” lock nuts on the suspension lock bar using a 9/16” socket or wrench.)

3.Roll motorcycle rear tire onto 1/4”, 1/2”, or 3/4” preload plate.  (See pg. 15 of manual or What preload should I use? click here) (Preload plate can be wood, metal, or plastic.) (Make sure motorcycle is in first gear when tire is on top of preload plate.)

The more preload the less lean you will have with the motorcycle inside the Voyager Kit.

4.Now tighten (8) U-bolts nuts to 35 ft. lbs. (torque wrench is needed)  (If you have the old style suspension lock bar you will, also, need to tighten the (2) 3/8” lock nuts.)

5.Now you are ready to ride again!
