General Information
Nuts, Bolts, Fasteners: Visually check that
steering and suspension components, axles,
and all controls are properly tightened or
fastened. Inspect all areas for loose/damaged
fixings.
Steering Action: Smooth but not loose from
lock to lock. No binding of any of the control
cables (see page 93).
Brakes: Pull the brake lever and push the
brake pedal to check for correct resistance.
Investigate any lever/pedal where the travel is
excessive before meeting resistance, or if
either control feels spongy in operation (see
page 90).

1.0 mm of friction material remaining on the
front brake pads and more than 1.5 mm for
the rear (see page 90).
