I have a BF 650 SRA and the rear squats to much in my opinion. I adjusted the spring to make it a little stiffer but wanted to know if the compression could be adjusted as well. I looked in my owners manual but I think the dealer gave me the manual for the BF 650i and I don't want to pay $70 to get one from Kawasaki. Can anyone help?

 

Why don't ask your dealer to get the correct O/M? Yours is a single coil over N2 filled shock and the spring pre-load can be adjusted as you already have done. There is a valve for N2 refill as well. I know Kawi used to sell a heavier-duty coil spring, but not sure if they still do. I have the right O/M (it should say KVF650D/E for '06) and it doesn't show any other adjutment on the rear suspension.

 

Thanks for the reply. I did call them and they said the manuals are the same other than a few minor things. They didn't seem to have to much concern and I have always gotten good info from this forum.
