Steering Stem
Park the vehicle on level place, hold steering handlebar,
and shake in the direction as illustrated on the right

In case of any sway, check if it is the problem of the
steering stem or other parts and then do the mainte-
nance accordingly.
In case of sway of the steering stem, tighten the lock-
nut or disassemble the steering stem for further check.
Park the vehicle on level place, slowly turn the handle-
bar left and right to see if it can turn freely.
