FASTENERS
Check for loose or missing nuts, bolts or cotter pins. If you keep the motorcycle clean, it is easier to spot missing
parts. Refer to Specification for recommended fastener torque (tightness).
SPARK PLUGS / IGNITION SYSTEM
Spark plugs should be inspected and the gap measured (and adjusted if required) at every recommended inspection
and maintenance interval. Spark plugs should be replaced at a minimum of every 12,000 miles (more frequently for
optimal performance.)
When replacing your motorcycle’s spark plugs:
•
Always replace with same as original equipment plugs.
•
Never remove spark plug wires from plugs by pulling on wires. Always grasp the molded rubber spark plug
cap for removal of wires.
Vengeance Motorcycles installs one of the most advanced, electronic ignition systems presently available on the
market. Only a professionally trained mechanic should address its sophisticated electronic operation. As set at the
factory, your ignition system optimizes fuel consumption, engine horsepower and exhaust emissions. It should not be
adjusted except by a professional motorcycle mechanic familiar with its operation and functions utilizing the
appropriate equipment.
SUSPENSION
Adjustment:
Although the spring pre-load or ride height of the motorcycle can be adjusted to compensate for
variations in weight, it is not recommended as an owner process.
CAUTION: ALTHOUGH THE SUSPENSION HEIGHT CAN BE ADJUSTED, IT IS SET FOR NORMAL OPERATION
AND LOAD FROM THE FACTORY. ANY VARIANCE FROM THIS SETTING SHOULD BE CONFIRMED PRIOR TO
PERFORMING THE PROCESS. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT ANY ADJUSTMENTS MADE TO YOUR
SUSPENSION BE PERFORMED BY AN AUTHORIZED VENGEANCE MOTORCYCLES DEALER OR SERVICE
CENTER.
WARNING
LOWERED MOTORCYCLES HAVE REDUCED CORNERING CLEARANCE AND REDUCED REAR
WHEEL TRAVEL. EXTRA CARE MUST BE TAKEN WHEN CORNERING ON A LOWER MOTORCYCLE.
ALSO, ALTERING RIDE HEIGHT AFFECTS THE STEERING GEOMETRY AND CAN LEAD TO A
POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS CONDITION.
WARNING
YOUR NEW HIGH PERFORMANCE MOTORCYCLE IS SUBJECT TO VIBRATION DURING USE UNDER
ALL OPERATING CONDITIONS. BOLTS, FASTENERS, CABLES AND FIXTURES SUCH AS LIGHTS
ETC. SHOULD BE INSPECTED FREQUENTLY AND TIGHTENED OR REPLACED, IF NECESSARY, TO
ENSURE THE SAFE AND DEPENDABLE OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE. CERTAIN MODELS, SUCH AS
THOSE BUILT ON RIGID FRAMES, ARE SUBJECT TO GREATER VIBRATION, AND FASTENERS AND
FIXTURES MUST BE CHECKED EVEN MORE FREQUENTLY TO ENSURE SAFETY AND PROPER
OPERATION.
