Handlebar Position (HIGH-BALL)
On models equipped with two handlebar positions, the
motorcycle is manufactured with handlebars in the low
position. Before changing handlebar position, check
regulations in your area of operation. Operation with the
handlebars in the high position may not be legal in all areas or
for all riders.
WARNING! Handlebar controls must be repositioned each time
handlebar position is changed. Failure to reposition handlebar controls
could result in loss of vehicle control resulting in severe injury or death.
1. To adjust handlebar position, loosen
the bolts on the bottom of the riser.
2. Adjust the handlebars upward or
downward to the desired position.
For high position, align the
upper
handlebar marks with the split in
the riser. For low position, align the
lower handlebar marks with the
split in the riser.
3. Tighten the front (longer) riser bolts first, then
tighten the rear bolts.
Torque: 22 ft-lbs (31 Nm)
4. Loosen the screws at the bottom of the left and
right handlebar controls and reposition both
controls.
Make sure the index pin in each
control is fully seated in the appropriate
handlebar hole before tightening screws.
For
handlebars in the low position, seat the index
pins in the forward set of index holes. For
handlebars in the high position, seat the pins in
the rear set of holes.
5. Tighten the handlebar control screws.
