preferred position relative to footpegs to better suit the
riding style of every rider.
To set the gear change pedal, lock linkage (1) and loosen
check nuts (2) and (3).
Note
Nut (2) has a left-hand thread.

To set the rear brake pedal:
loosen check nut (4).
Turn travel adjuster (5) until pedal is in the desired
position.

1.5 ÷ 2 mm free play before brake is actuated.

loosen the check nut (6) on the rod.
Tighten rod into fork (7) to increase free play or loosen it
to decrease play.
