Using body weight, depress the
suspension as far as possible and check for freedom of movement
and security of the suspension unit.
2. Check for evidence of fouling between fixed and moving
parts.
3. With the side car wheel raised check that the wheel is
secure and that the wheel bearings are not excessively tight
or do not have excessive free play. Spin the wheel and listen
for roughness in the bearings.
4. Check shock absorbers for oil leakage due to seal failure

1.
Excessive stiffness of movement such as might be caused
by partial seizure of the suspension units.
2. Fouling between fixed and moving parts which affects
the movement of the suspension.
3.
a. an insecure suspension unit.
b, a loose wheel spindle or securing nuts or locking device
loose or missing.
c. excessive tightness or free play in the wheel bearings.
