PRE-OPERATION CHECK Check Brakes Check Hoses and Connections Inspect all brake hoses and connections for dampness or stains from leaking or dried fluid. Tighten any leaking connections and replace components as necessary. Refer to the Victory Service Manual for torque values of fasteners or contact your Victory dealer. 2 Check Brake Pads Look at the front brake caliper pads at (1), and at rear rear brake caliper pads at (2). You should see at least 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) of friction material on each of the brake pads (see page 114). If in doubt, measure remaining friction material. Replace brake pads having less than the specified amount of friction material at their thinnest point. 1 Check Throttle Control Grip and Cables 1. Rotate the throttle control grip. It should rotate smoothly from its rest position to its completely open position and back again. It should return to its rest position quickly when released. 2. Throttle freeplay, the amount of throttle control grip movement from the rest position to the point of cable resistance, should be 1/8-1/4 inch (3-6 mm). 3. Adjust throttle cable freeplay if necessary (see page 103). 56 1/8-1/4 inch (3-6 mm)

PRE-OPERATION CHECK
Check Brakes
Check Hoses and Connections
Inspect all brake hoses and connections for dampness or stains
from leaking or dried fluid. Tighten any leaking connections and
replace components as necessary.
Refer to the Victory Service
Manual for torque values of fasteners or contact your Victory
dealer.
Check Brake Pads
Look at the front brake caliper pads at (1), and at rear rear brake
caliper pads at (2). You should see at least 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) of
friction material on each of the brake pads (see page 114). If in
doubt, measure remaining friction material. Replace brake pads
having less than the specified amount of friction material at their
thinnest point.
Check Throttle Control Grip and Cables
1.
Rotate the throttle control grip. It should rotate smoothly
from its rest position to its completely open position and
back again. It should return to its rest position quickly when
released.
2.
Throttle freeplay, the amount of throttle control grip
movement from the rest position to the point of cable
resistance, should be 1/8-1/4 inch (3-6 mm).
3.
Adjust throttle cable freeplay if necessary (see page 103).
