Toe Alignment
Use the following procedure to check the toe alignment of the vehicle.
The recommended toe alignment is 1/8" to 1/4" (3-6 mm) toe out.
WARNING!
Severe injury or death can result from improper toe alignment
and adjustment. Do not attempt to adjust tie rod alignment. All tie rod
adjustments should be performed by an authorized Yours dealer.
1. Locate the vehicle on a
level surface.
2. Set the handlebars in a
straight-ahead position
and secure them in this
position.
3. Place a chalk mark on the
center line of the front
tires approximately 10"
(25.4 cm) from the floor,
or as close to the hub/axle
center line as possible.
Make sure both marks are the same distance from the floor.
4. Measure the distance between the marks and record the
measurement (1).
5. Move the vehicle to rotate the tires 180~. Position the wheels with
the chalk marks at the rear of the tires, even with the hub/axle center
line.
6. Measure the distance between the marks and record the measurement
(2).
7. Subtract measurement 2 from measurement 1. The difference is the
vehicle toe-out alignment.

If you discover improper alignment, see your dealer for service.
