Adjusting steering head angle
Before changing steering head angle, you must first
remove the steering damper. Unscrew the retaining
screws (1 and 2) to release the steering damper. The
steering lock peg (3) is retained with a screw (2) and must
be re-positioned farther back on refitting when steering
head angle is modified.
Slacken the steering head retaining screw (4).
To change steering head angle, remove the circlips (6) and
the washers (7) and loosen the two screws (5) on the
frame right side.
Fully unscrew the screw (8) and turn the steering tube
eccentric (9) by 180° with a pin wrench. Check that the
hole on the eccentric is centred with the through hole in
the steering tube. Look at the arrow etched in the top area
of the eccentric to centre both holes accurately.
Fully screw the screw (8). Grease the threads of the
screws (5) with SHELL Retinax HDX2 and tighten to 22
Nm. Refit the washer (7) and the circlip (6).
Note
While performing the above, the handlebars should
not be fully turned.
