STEERING WHEEL BALL PLAY ADJUSTMENT

regulated so that the handlebars steering the motorcycle rotate
freely without play. To check steering wheel adjustment, place
kick stand or other support under the engine so that the front
wheel is raised from ground.
Place slight pressure on the tips of the handlebars to rotate
steering wheel; the handlebars should also rotate without effort.
