CHECKING AND ADJUSTING THE
STEERING PLAY
Periodically check the play of the steer-
ing head tube by moving the forks back-
wards and forwards as shown in the
figure. If any play is felt, carry out the
adjustment by following these steps:
• Unscrew the four screws A.
• Pull out handlebar B, paying special
attention to clevises C.
• Loosen nut D.
• Loosen the two screws F.
• Reduce the play by turning ring E.
To refit the parts, follow the reverse pro-
cedure.
Note
Proper adjustment must leave no play
and cause no stiffness, and allow the
steering to rotate smoothly. Check the
fitting direction of the clevises as it can
alter the geometry of the handlebar.
