Transporting
When the front fork is compressed, the built up pressure
must be released to help prevent fork seal leaks. There is
a 3 mm Allen “bleed” screw located just in front of the
rebound adjuster on each fork leg. This “bleed” screw (A)
is used to release the built up pressure. Loosen the screw
slowly, but do not remove. Once all the air is out, tighten
the bleed screw.
The fork must be fully extended (most likely on a stand or
balanced on the kickstand with the front tire in the air) then
the air can be bled and capped. Ensure that the screw is
tightened before riding.
It is recommended that the motorcycle be tied-down using
ratchet straps. Place the ratchet straps around a frame
contact point. Soft straps must be used to prevent
scratches or other damage.
Use two ratchet straps in the front and two in the rear. The
tie down straps should be at a 45° angle from the
motorcycle. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the
ratchet straps you are using.
