PRE-RIDE INSPECTION
For your safety, it is very important to take a
few moments before each ride to walk
around your vehicle and check its condition.
If you detect any problem, be sure you take
care of it or have it corrected by your
Authorised Hero MotoCorp workshop.
Ÿ Park the vehicle on main stand on a
level surface in front of a wall.
Ÿ Loosen the bolt (1) and move the
headlamp up or down for correct focus.
Ÿ Engine oil level-Add engine oil if required
(page 54 ). Check for leaks.
Ÿ Front and Integrated brake-Check
operation and if necessary, adjust free play
(pages 17).
Ÿ Tyres-Check condition and pressure
(pages 21).
Ÿ Fuel level-Fill fuel tank when necessary
(page 19). Check for leaks.
WARNING
!!
Ÿ Always perform a pre-ride inspection before
every ride and correct if any problem.
Ÿ Improper maintenance or failing to correct a
problem before riding can cause a crash in
which you can be seriously injured.

oncoming driver or it may fail to light the road

quality.

leave the key in the ignition switch. This
sounds simple but people do forget.
