§TIRE INSPECTION §
Tires should be checked and inflated with the engine shut off.
If a tire’s ground contacting curve is abnormal, check it with an air pressure gauge and inflate it to
the specified pressure.
Tires pressure must be checked with an air pressure gauge when cold.
Visual check tires for frontal and lateral side walls for
crack or damage.
Visual check tires for any nails or small stones
wedged in the tread.
Check the “tread wear indicator” condition to see if
tread groove depth is insufficient.
A tire with a wear bar showing is worn out and should
be replaced immediately.
§STEERING HANDLE FRONT SHOCK ABSORBERS INSPECTION §
Perform this check with engine shut off and ignition switch key
removed.
Visual check front shock absorbers for damage.
Operate steering handle up and down, and check front shock
absorbers for noises due to bends.
Check the bolts and nuts of front shock absorbers with wrenches
for tightness.
Shake steering handle up & down, left & right, and front & rear to
check if it is loosen, has too much resistance and pulls to one
side.
Check steering handle if it is being pulled too tight by the brake
cables.
Take your scooter to SYM Authorized Dealer or Franchised
Dealer for a check or adjustment if any abnormal conditions are
found.
CAUTION:
Abnormal tire pressure, wear, or crack is the most important cause that results in the loss control
of the steering handle and a punctured tire(s).
