2.16. FRONT END
2.16.1. STEERING
Inspect after the first 1000 km (621 mi) and every 4000 km
(2485 mi) or 12 months afterwards.
The steering is fitted with rolling bearings to ensure smooth
handling.
Proper steering adjustment is vital to smooth steering
movement and safe riding. Any hardness in the steering will
impair handling, whereas a soft steering will result in poor
stability.
CHECKING PLAY IN THE BEARINGS
•
Put the vehicle on the centre stand.
•
Rock the fork back and forth in the direction of travel.
•
If you feel any play, adjust the bearings.
