Front fork bleeding

When riding in extremely rough condi-
tions, the air temperature and pressure
in the front fork will rise and harden the
suspension. If this occurs, bleed the air
from each fork leg.
WARNING
Always bleed both fork legs, other-
wise poor handling and loss of sta-
bility may result.
1. If possible, elevate the vehicle so
the front wheel is off the ground.
(See page 8-34.)
TIP
When bleeding the front fork, do not
apply any pressure or weight on the
front end of the vehicle.
2. Remove the bleed screws and al-
low all of the air to escape from
each fork leg.
