2. THROTTLE GRIP
The throttle grip adjuster, Fig. Kl -3, hitherto
offered, was discontinued.
3. SIDE STAND
The side stand was changed to a new type
with a shock absorbing rubber pad. The side
stand must be inspected periodically to deter-
mine that it is in good condition.
Inspection
1. Check the entire stand assembly (side
stand bar, bracket and rubber pad) for
installation, deformation or otherwis e ex-
cessive damage.
2. Check the spring for freedom from
damage or other defects.
3. Check the side stand for proper return
operation:
a. With the side stand applied, raise the
stand off the ground by using the
main stand.
b. Attach a spring scale to the lower end
of the stand and measure the force
with which the stand is returned to
its original position.
c. The stand condition is correct
if the
measurement falls within z......,3kg
(4.4........,6.6 lbs.).
If the stand requires force exceeding
the above limit, this might be due to
neglected lubrication, overtightened
side stand pivot bolt, worn stand bar
or bracket, or otherwise excessive
tension. Replace as necessary.
4. Check the rubber pad for deterioration
or wear. When the rubber pad wear is
excessive so that it is worn down to the
wear line, replace it with a new one.
