1. Lever
2. Adjuster wheel
3. Triangular mark
An adjuster is fitted to the front brake and
clutch levers. The adjusters allow the distance
from the handlebar to the levers to be
changed to one of four positions, to suit the
span of the operator's hands.
To adjust the levers, push each lever forward
and turn the adjuster wheel to align one of
the numbered positions with the triangular
mark on the lever holder.
Warning
With the key in the LOCK or P position the
steering will become locked.
Never turn the key to the LOCK or P
positions while the motorcycle is moving as
this will cause the steering to lock. Locked
steering will cause loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
