REAR SHOCK ABSORBERS

TVS  HLX  PLUS  is  provided  with  5  step  adjustable  rear 
shockabsorbers to meet different road and load conditions. 
There are 5 notches for adjusting spring load. If the spring is 
adjusted to the minimum notch, then the shock absorber 
will be softer which is good for plain smooth roads and light 
loads. If the spring is adjusted to maximum notch, then it 
will be stiffer which is good for rough, bumpy roads and 
heavy loads.

Adjust  the  spring  load  by  shifting  the  adjuster  to  the 
required  notch  according  to  the  different  load  and  road 
conditions.  The  more  you  compress  the  shock  absorber 
spring, the more it becomes stiff.

BRAKES

Front brake

1.  Measure the free play of the front brake lever at the 

lever end. The distance measured should be 15 ~ 20 
mm or as required.

2.  If the measured distance is more than the limit then, 

adjust the adjuster nut provided at the front wheel end 
to obtain the correct play.

3.  Turn the adjuster nut in clockwise direction for reducing 

the free play or in anti-clockwise direction for increasing 
the free play of the front

 

brake lever.
