Before Riding  

27

Tires & Wheels

Look at the tires.  If a tire appears low, use an air pressure gauge to check its pressure.  Also look 
for signs of excessive wear or damage to the tires and wheels.

Chain

Check the condition of the chain. Adjust slack and lubricate as needed.

Leaks, Loose Parts

Walk around your Enertia and look for anything that appears unusual, such as a leak or loose parts.

Lights

Make sure the headlight, running light, brakelight, taillight, license light and turn signals are 
working properly.

Throttle

Rotate the throttle to check it moves smoothly without binding.

Brakes

Pull the brake lever and press on the brake pedal to check that they operate normally.

Gauges & 
Indicators

Power up the Enertia and check for normal operation of the gauge and indicators.
