8. Operation and Maintenance.
8.1 Self-Centralising Steering – (SCS).
Patent Granted.
The Self Centralising Steering system is a Tomcat innovation that smoothly
returns your steering to “straight-ahead” after a turn, (in much the same way as a
car’s steering). This maintains a stable and positive "feel" to the steering at all
speeds. The SCS leaves the factory at the optimum setting for an average adult
male rider on Silver Bullet versions and an average 14year old on Silver Arrow
versions.
Very slightly built persons or those with low arm strength or grip may
find the SCS return force to be greater than they need or are able to
comfortably manage. In these exceptional cases, the self-centralising force can be
reduced, and it will be necessary to fit softer springs to the SCS to reduce the
self-centralising effect.
To fit new springs (which are available from Tomcat), proceed as follows.
