Bank Angle Indicators
Warning
Use of a motorcycle with bank angle
indicators worn beyond the maximum
limit will allow the motorcycle to be
banked to an unsafe angle.
Banking to an unsafe angle may cause
instability, loss of motorcycle control
and an accident.
Bank angle indicators are located on the
rider’s footrests.
Regularly check the bank angle
indicators for wear.
Bank angle indicators must be replaced
when they have reached the maximum
wear limit of 5 mm in length.
