Checking the steering
Worn or loose steering bearings may

of the steering must be checked as fol-
lows at the intervals specified in the pe-
riodic maintenance and lubrication

raise the front wheel off the
ground.

there is no danger of it falling over.
2. Hold the lower ends of the front
fork legs and try to move them for-
ward and backward. If any free
play can be felt, have a Yamaha
dealer check or repair the steering.
