WARNING
!
Suspension components directly affect motorcycle
safety. If any component shows wear or if it is
damaged, see your authorized Honda dealer that is
qualified to perform all maintenance and repair
services. Otherwise motorcycle stability and
drivability will be seriously affected.
Front Suspension
Check the fork assembly by applying the front brake
and pumping the fork up and down vigorously.
Suspension action should be progressive and smooth.
Check for oil leakage. Correct any abnormality before
riding the motorcycle. Make sure all front suspension,
handlebar and instrument panel fasteners are correctly
tightened.
Rear Suspension
Check the rear suspension periodically, observing the
following:
1. Swingarm bushing: with the motorcycle placed
on its main stand (CG150 Titan KS/ES/ESD/
CG150 Job) or on a suitable support (CG150 Sport),
push hard against the side of the rear wheel to
check the bearings and bushing for play, or if the
shock link is loose.
2. Make sure the rear shock absorber has no oil
leakage. Push the rear suspension down to check if
the shock absorber linkages have excessive play or
wear.
3. Check all suspension fasteners. Make sure they are
in perfect condition and correctly tightened.
