Front Fork/Suspension Inspection
- Place the motorcycle
on the sidestand and inspect the front forks. If fork oil is present
on the outer tube
, do not ride the motorcycle. See
your dealer for service before operating. If fork oil is present around
the fork seals 
or inner tubes 
, replace the fork seals.
- Clean the fork tubes
to remove bugs, tar or buildup which may cause seal wear or leakage.
Inspect the outer surfaces of the
inner fork tubes for scratches or damage from
foreign objects.
- Straddle the motorcycle
and bring it to the fully upright position. Apply the front brake
and push downward (hard) on the
handlebars several times. The front suspension
should operate smoothly and quietly.
- Fork oil condition
and level affects front suspension performance and internal component
wear. Replace fork oil at the recommended
intervals. Special tools are required to perform
this procedure. See the INDIAN
MOTORCYCLE Service Manual or an authorized INDIAN MOTORCYCLE
dealer or other qualified dealer.
