GAS CONTROL ADJUSTMENT

The throttle control cable should always
have a 3-5 mm play. In addition, the idle
1
speed should not change when the handle-
bars are fully rotated to the left or right. Push
3
back protective cap 1. Loosen counternut
2 and turn adjusting screw 3. Turning the
screw anticlockwise decreases the idle
travel; turning it clockwise increases it.
Tighten the counternut and check that the
throttle twist grip turns smoothly.

CHECKING AND ADJUSTING
THE STEERING PLAY
Periodically check the play of the steering
head tube by moving the forks backwards
and forwards as shown in the fi gure. If
any play is felt, carry out the adjustment
by following these steps:
• Loosen the four screws 1 and screw 2.
• Recover the play by intervening on screw
3.
• Tighten the screws 1 to 17Nm.
• Tighten the screw 2 to 20 Nm.
Note:
Proper adjustment must leave no play and
3
cause no stiffness, and allow the steering to
rotate smoothly. Check the fi tting direction
2
of the clevises as it can alter the geometry
of the handlebar.
