•MOMO leather-wrapped 3-spoke steering wheel
is used.
•A steering column has a shock absorbing mecha-
nism and a tilt steering mechanism.
•Integral-type rack and pinion gear with high rigid-
ity and excellent response is used.
•A vane type pump with a fluid flow rate control
system which change steering effort according to
the engine speed is used.
•The separate plastic resin oil reservoir is used to
reduce weight and to make the fluid level check
-
ing easier.
