TIRE INSPECTION
• Tires should be checked and inflated with the engine shut off.
• If a tire’s ground contacting curve is abnormal, check it with an air pressure gauge and inflate it to the
specified pressure.
• Tires pressure must be checked with an air pressure gauge when cold.
• Visual check tires for frontal and lateral side walls for
crack or damage.
• Visual check tires for any nails or small stones
wedged in the tread.
• Check the “tread wear indicator” condition to see if
tread groove depth is insufficient.
• A tire with a wear bar showing is worn out and
should be replaced immediately.
STEERING HANDLE FRONTSHOCK ABSORBERS INSPECTION
• Perform this check with engine shut off and ignition
switch key removed.
• Visual check front shock absorbers for damage.
• Operate steering handle up and down, and check
front shock absorbers for noises due to bends.
• Check the bolts and nuts of front shock absorbers
with wrenches for tightness.
• Shake steering handle up & down, left & right, and
front & rear to check if it is loosen, has too much
resistance and pulls to one side.
• Check steering handle if it is being pulled too tight by
the brake cables.
• Take your motorcycle to SYM Authorized Dealer or
Franchised Dealer for a check or adjustment if any
abnormal conditions are found.
PLEASE REFER TO SPECIFICATIONS FOR STANDARD TIRE PRESSURE
