Notes
POSSIBLE INSUFFICIENT CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE LOWER EDGE OF THE LEFT FRONT FENDER SKIRT AND THE FRONT BRAKE PIPE, JUST IN FRONT OF THE STEERING GEAR.THIS COULD ALLOW THE SKIRT TO CHAFE AGAINST THE BRAKE PIPE WHICH COULD EVENTUALLY RESULT IN WEAR THROUGH OF THE BRAKE PIPE AND LOSS OF FRONT WHEEL BRAKE SYSTEM.BECAUSE OF DUAL SYSTEM, REAR BRAKES WOULD STILL BE OPERATIVE.'REWORK THE FENDER SKIRT.'
