WARNING
Be sure that both tie-rods are turned the
same amount. If not, the machine will drift
right or left even though the handlebar is
positioned straight. This may lead to
mishandling and an accident.
After setting the toe-in to specification,
run the machine slowly for some distance
with both hands lightly holding the
handlebar and check that the handlebar
responds correctly. If not, turn either the
right or left tie-rod within the toe-in
specification.

Adjustment steps:
Mark both tie-rods ends.

adjustment.
Loosen the locknuts (tie-rod end) 1 of both
tie-rods.
The same number of turns should be given
to both the right and left tie-rods 2 until the
specified toe-in is obtained. This is to keep
the length of the rods the same.
Tighten the rod end locknuts of both tie rods.
