STEERING SYSTEM
Steering system should be adjusted properly for smooth manip-
ulation of the handlebars and safe running.
TOE-IN
• Place the vehicle on level ground.
• Make sure the tire pressure for right and left tires is the same
and set to the proper specification.
• Set the front wheels in the straight position.
• Place a load of 75 kg (165 lbs) on the seat.
• Measure the distance
A and
B of the front wheels with a
toe-in gauge as shown and calculate the difference between
A and
B.
$ Toe-in: 7 ± 4 mm (0.30 ± 0.16 in)
• If the toe-in is out of specification, bring it into the specified
range. ("7-48)
To minimize the possiblility of tire damage from
over-inflation, we strongly recommended that a man-
ual type air pump be used rather than a high pressure
air compressor as found in service stations. When fill-
ing air into the tires, never exceed 70 kPa (0.7 kgf/cm²,
10 psi).
The standard tire fitted on this vehicle is an
AT25×8-12✩✩
✩✩ ✩✩
✩✩ for the front and a AT25×10-12✩✩
✩✩ ✩✩
✩✩ for
the rear. The use of tires other than those specified
may cause instability. It is highly recommended to use
the specified tires.
Inspect initially at 200 km (100 miles, 1 month) and
every 1 000 km (600 miles, 3 months) thereafter.
