PRE-OPERATION CHECK

Check Sidestand

Straddle the motorcycle and bring it to a vertical position. Move the sidestand to

its stored (up) position, then to its fully extended (down) position and back

again. It should move smoothly and quietly. When the sidestand is in its stored

position, the sidestand return spring should hold the sidestand tightly against the

motorcycle.
Check the condition of the sidestand rubber pad, and make sure it’s firmly

attached to the sidestand.

Check Fasteners

Visually inspect the entire motorcycle chassis and engine for loose, damaged or

missing fasteners. Tighten loose fasteners to the proper torque (see the

specifications section of this manual or see the Victory Service Manual).

Immediately replace stripped, damaged or broken fasteners with genuine Victory

fasteners of equal size and strength immediately.
