Legal and safety checks
Lighting and signalling:
• Take a minute to check that the headlight, tail light, brake light, instrument lights and turn signals all work correctly.
• Check that the hom sounds when the switch is operated.
• A working speedometer graduated in mph is a statutory requirement in the UK.
Safety:
• Check that the throttle grip rotates smoothly and snaps shut when released, in all steering positions. Also check for the correct amount of freeplay (see Chapter 1).
• Check that the engine shuts off when the kill switch is operated.
• Check that sidestand return spring holds the stand securely up when it is retracted.
• Check that the clutch lever operates smoothly and with the correct amount of freeplay (see Chapter 1).
• On R and T models, check the operation of the rear brake drum. If brake stopping power is poor or the brake does not free-off when the pedal is released, investigate the problem immediately.
Fuel:
• This may seem obvious, but check that you have enough fuel to complete your journey. If you notice signs of fuel leakage - rectify the cause immediately.
• Ensure you use the correct grade unleaded fuel - see Chapter 4 Specifications.
