Other Adjustments
CBR1000SP
This model is equipped with the ÖHLINS Smart EC system.
This system consists of front and rear suspension and Suspension Control Unit (SCU).
This system provides the pre-programmed damping characteristics optimized for different situation to the front and rear suspension.
SCU constantly determines riding conditions from vehicle information. As a result, this system provides the optimum rebound and compression damping characteristics.
The system continually adjusts compression and rebound damping levels according to the riding situation.
You can adjusts the front and rear suspension preload manually.
You can also check the recommended spring preload values by setting the rider's weight. ,
ÖHLINS Smart EC is a trademark of ÖHLINS RACING AB, Sweden.
Front Spring Preload
You can adjust the spring preload by the adjuster to suit the load or the road surface.

Adjuster
The standard position is the 2 turns from the full soft position.
|
NOTICE Do not turn the adjuster beyond its limits. Adjust both left and right forks to the same spring preload. |
Rear Spring Preload
You can adjust the spring preload by the adjuster knob to suit the load or the road surface.
Turn clockwise to increase spring preload (hard), or turn counterclockwise to decrease spring preload (soft).
The standard position is 8 turns from the full hard position.

NOTICE The rear shock absorber damper unit contains high pressure nitrogen gas. Do not attempt to disassemble, service, or improperly dispose of the damper. See your dealer. |
To check the recommended spring preload values
By setting the rider's weight, recommended suspension preload values will be displayed in the PRELOAD GUIDE setting.

You can select A-mode which automatically adjusts damping according to the riding situation and MANUAL mode which allows damping to be set at a fixed level.
A-mode will automatically adjust compression and rebound damping levels for the front and rear suspension according to the current vehicle conditions and rider weight setting.
A-mode provides 3 situation(TRACK, SPORT, and RAIN) with different riding feel and vehicle characteristics for various situations.
A-mode has 3 modes (A1, A2, A3), and each mode can select the situation suitable for the riding condition.
Defaults of A-mode can be adjusted using the ÖHLINS Objective Based Tuning interface (OBTi).
“OBTi” provides the interface where the rider can adjust the settings in order to enhance the vehicle characteristics to rider's preferences.

FRONT/REAR:
By adjusting the front and rear firmness objective, it is possible to increase(+) or decrease(-) the front and rear suspension total damping level.
Direction
For TRACK
(+): More stable feeling. Good for high grip tyre and high road surface temperature.
(-): Useful to increase weight transfer. Good setting for low grip condition. Adjusting the parameters separately allows changing the front and rearing balance separately.
For SPORT/RAIN
(+): More stable feeling. Good for controlling the suspension movement moderately.
(-): More comfort feeling. Good setting for bumpy road and wet condition.
Adjusting the parameters separately allows changing the front and rearing balance separately.
BRAKE:
By adjusting the brake support objective it is possible to increase (+) or decrease (-) the pitching resistance during initial braking.
Direction
(+): Front fork compresses slowly.
(-): Front fork compresses quickly.
|
|
ACC:
By adjusting the acceleration objective it is possible to increase (+) or decrease (-) the pitching resistance during accelerating.
Direction
(+): More stable feeling especially during hard acceleration out of corner.
(-): Useful to increase weight transfer to increase rear tyre load.
|
|
CORNER:
By adjusting the corner objective it is possible to increase (+) or decrease (-) the agile movements of the while turning.
Direction
(+): More agility especially in middle of corner.
(-): Good setting for rain or low grip condition.
To adjust the “FRONT”, “REAR”, “BRAKE”, “ACC”, and “CORNER”
The suspension setting can be fixed at a certain value on compression and rebound damping of the front and rear suspensions.
There is no automatic adjustment function for the front and rear suspension damping.
MANUAL mode provides 3 modes (M1, M2, and M3).
Preset of M1 is suitable for track riding.
Preset of M2 is suitable for winding roads.
Preset of M3 is suitable for street riding.
In MANUAL mode, the following damping levels can be adjusted as desired:
FR COMP: Compression damping for front suspension
FR REB: Rebound damping for front suspension
RR COMP: Compression damping for rear suspension
RR REB: Rebound damping for rear suspension
To adjust the “FR COMP”, “FR REB”, “RR COMP” and “RR REB”
