♦
Place the support under the vehicle and a
spongy cloth between them, so that the
front wheel can move freely and the vehi-
cle cannot fall down.
♦
Shake the fork in the direction of travel.
NOTE
Do not shake the fork excesively,
otherwise you may take in consideration the
movement of the stand, thus observing an
incorrect slack.
Repeat the previous operation more than
once.
♦
If you find that there is a considerable slack,
contact your aprilia Official Dealer to re-
store the optimal steering conditions.
