REAR SHOCK ABSORBERS
TVS StaR HLX 150 is provided with 5 step adjustable rear
shockabsorbers to meet different road and load conditions.
There are 5 notches for adjusting spring load. If the spring is
adjusted to the minimum notch, then the shock absorber
will be softer which is good for plain smooth roads and light
loads. If the spring is adjusted to maximum notch, then it will
be stiffer which is good for rough, bumpy roads and heavy
loads.
Adjust the spring load by shifting the adjuster to the
required notch according to the different load and road
conditions. The more you compress the shock absorber
spring, the more it becomes stiff.
BRAKES

1. Measure the free play of the front brake lever at the

should be 15 ~ 20 mm or as required.
2. If the measured distance is more than the limit then,
adjust the adjuster nut provided at the front wheel end
to obtain the correct play.
3. Turn the adjuster nut in clockwise direction for reducing
the free play or in anti-clockwise direction for increasing
the free play of the front
brake lever.
