Toe Alignment
You can check the toe alignment of the
vehicle using the following method.
The recommended toe alignment is
1/8″ to 1/4″ toe out. If you discover
improper adjustment have your dealer
correct it.
1. Set handlebars in a straight ahead
position and hold them in this posi-
tion. NOTE: The steering frog can
be used as an indicator of whether
the handlebars are straight. The
frog should always point straight
back fro m the steering post.
2. Place stands in front of the ma-
chine, perpendicular to the rear
tires.
3. Tie an elastic string around the
stands, making sure string just
touches side surface of the rear tires
on each side o f machine and goes
around the stands in front of the
machine.
4. Measure from string to rim at front and rear of front rim. Rear rim mea-
surement should be 1/16″ -1/8″ (.2 to .3 cm) more than front rim mea-
surement.
