Checking the steering
Worn or loose steering bearings may
cause danger. Therefore, the operation
of the steering must be checked as fol-
lows at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart.
1. Place the vehicle on the
centerstand. WARNING! To avoid
injury, securely support the ve-
hicle so there is no danger of it
falling over.[EWA10751]
2. Hold the lower ends of the front fork
legs and try to move them forward
and backward. If any free play can
be felt, have a Yamaha dealer check
or repair the steering.
