Step 9:
Handlebar adjustments.
The handlebar grip may come from the factory
rotated so they sweep back (see the red arrow in
fig. 35). This position will cause strain on your
wrists. Loosen the four bolts (5 mm Allen
wrench) that secure the bar to the handlebar
extension, and rotate the grips STRAIGHT
DOWN (like the green arrow).
fig. 35 …you’ll thank us later.
You may also take this opportunity to fine tune
the position of your grip shifters or brake
levers. They should be comfortable for you.
You may want to ride awhile before you do
this. You can also adjust the handlebar up or
down, but start with the handlebar extension
flush with the top of the steering extension
tube.
This is the proper parking position:

Note that parking the bike in “crank forward”
position is for photo ops only. Turn the wheel
to the right for stable parking with the kickstand
engaged.
