STEERING WHEEL BALL PLAY ADJUSTMENT

regulated so that the handlebars steering the motorcycle rotate
freely without play. To check steering wheel adjustment, place kick

raised from ground.
Place slight pressure on the tips of the handlebars to rotate steer-
ing wheel; the handlebars should also rotate without effort. Stand
in front of the motorcycle and grasp the lower end of the fork rods
sliders moving them in the direction of their axis.
If play is noticed, proceed with adjustment as follows:
lloosen steering sleeve nut (1).
lLoosen four screws that fix steering head to fork rods (3).
Turn the steering ring nut (2) clockwise of the steering sleeve
proper tool, to adjust play properly.
Tighten steering sleeve nut (1) to a torque setting of
57,9÷65,1 Lb/ft; (78,4÷88,3 Nm).
Tighten four screws on the steering head (3) to a torque of
22,5÷26,5 Nm (16.6÷19.5 Lb/ft).
CAUTION*: Do not ride a motorcycle with
damaged steering stem bearings. An un-
safe handling condition can result.
