THE PERFECT FIT
Handlebar Adjustments
Handlebar position and handlebar angle can be adjusted to rider prefer-
ence. The optimum position for the proper vehicle balance is with the
riser block aligned with the steering post.
After making handlebar adjustments, check to make sure wires are not
pinched or kinked. Make sure the handlebars, brake lever and throttle
lever operate smoothly and do not hit the gas tank, windshield or any
other part of the vehicle when the handlebars are turned fully to the left
or right.
When adjustments are complete, torque the front adjuster block bolts
first, then torque the rear bolts. Torque the bolts to 11-13 ft. lbs. (15-18
Nm).
WARNING
Some aftermarket accessories (including windshields and cargo bags) may
interfere with the handlebar. Such accessories could limit your ability to steer
the vehicle and/or may contact the brake lever. This could lead to loss of con-
trol resulting in serious injury or death. Always be sure that accessories do
not contact the handlebar or brake lever at any handlebar position.
