Warning! Since the reservoir tank of the rear shock absorber contains nitrogen gas, do not incinerate the reservoir tank without first releasing the gas or it may explode.
Remove the shock absorber (see Rear Shock Absorber Removal).
Remove the valve cap [A] and release the nitrogen gas completely from the gas reservoir.
