Nuts, Bolts, Fasteners: Visually
check that steering and suspension
components, axles, and all controls are

Steering Action: Smooth but not loose
from lock to lock. No binding of any of
the control cables (see page 124).

the brake pedal to check for correct
resistance. Investigate any lever/pedal
where the travel is excessive before

amount of friction material is remaining
on all the brake pads (see page 117).

leakage. Brake fluid levels must be
between the MAX and MIN marks on

grip returns to the idle position without
sticking (see page 110).
