a
good idea to develop this checking procedure in a specific sequence so that It

ultimately
become as instinctive as
actually riding the machine. Done properly,
this
simple checking
sequence
will
give advanced warning of impending mechanical failures and
conditions
which
may jeopardize the safety of the rider.

Check tyre pressure, with a pressure gauge. Cneck tyre pressure when the tyres are
