How to Ride the Motorcycle
107
Luggage
Make sure that any luggage containers
are closed, locked and securely installed
on the motorcycle.
Miscellaneous
Visually check that all fasteners are
tight.
Steering
Check that the handlebar turns
smoothly without excessive free play or
tight spots. Make sure that the control
cables do not restrict the steering in
any way.
Tires
High speed operation is hard on tires,
and tires that are in good condition are
crucial to riding safely. Examine their
overall condition, inflate to the correct
pressure (when the tires are cold), and
check the wheel balance. Securely
install the valve caps after checking
tire pressures. Observe the information
given in the maintenance and
specification sections on tire checking
and tire safety.
