NOTE: Check for clog of oil passage 4 in the bolt. If any, clean the oil passage.
Inspection and Adjustment 1. Measure: S Valve clearance NOTE: Be sure piston is at Top Dead Center (TDC) when measuring clearance.
Valve Clearance measurement steps: S Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise with a 32 mm (1.26 in) socket wrench 1 . NOTE: Valve clearance must be measured when the engine is cool to the touch. S Align the T1 mark (for the No.1 cylinder) on the flywheel with the stationary pointer 2 on the crankcase cover. When the T1 mark is aligned with the stationary pointer 2 , the piston is at top dead center TDC. S Note marks on flywheel to obtain correct valve clearance measurements.
3 TDC for No.1 cylinder 4 TDC for No.2 cylinder
S Measure the valve clearance using a Feeler Gauge 5 . S Record the measured amount if the clearance is incorrect. Intake Valve (cold): 0.11 X 0.15 mm (0.004 X 0.006 in) Exhaust Valve (cold): 0.26 X 0.30 mm (0.010 X 0.012 in)

S Select the proper valve adjusting pad from the chart below: Pad range 200 mm (0.079 in) No. 200 X X No. 320 320 mm (0.130 in) Pad Availability: 25 increments Pads stepped in 0.05 mm (0.002 in) increments
NOTE: The thickness of each pads is marked on the pad face that contacts the valve lifter (not the cam). S Round off the hundredths digit of the original pad number to the nearest 0.05 mm increment. Hundredths digit 0 or 2 5 8 Rounded valve 0 (NOT ROUNDED OFF) 10
EXAMPLE: Original pad number = 258 (2.58 mm) Rounded off digit = 260 NOTE: Pads can only be selected in 0.05 mm (0.002 in) increments. S Locate the Installed Pad Number on the chart, and then find the measured valve clearance. The point where these coordinates intersect is the new pad number. NOTE: Use the new pad number as a guide only as the number must be verified. Pad number verification steps: S Install the new pad with the number down. S Remove the adjusting tool. S Recheck the valve clearance. S If the clearance is incorrect, repeat all of the clearance adjustment steps until the proper clearance is obtained.

Example: Selection of the drive pinion gear shim; Shim Thickness = Distance A Distance B S If the drive pinion gear is stamped 03 (plus (+03) is implied here since only the minus () designations are stamped alongside the numbers), then: A = 54.5 + 0.03 = 54.53 NOTE: All stamped numbers are in hundredths of a mm. S If the left-side-rear of the upper crankcase is stamped 95, then: B = 53 + 0.95 = 53.95 Therefore: T=AB = 54.53 53.95 = 0.58 mm S The calculated shim thickness is 0.58 mm. Because shim can only be selected in 0.05 mm increments, use the following chart to round off the hundredths digit of the calculated thickness and selest the appropriate shim. Hundredths Digit 0, 1, 2 3, 4, 5, 6 7, 8, 9 Rounded Value 0 5 10
S Using the above example, the calculated shim thickness of 0.58 mm is rounded off to 0.60 mm. Therefore, you may choose either 4 0.15 mm shims, 2 0.30 mm shims, or 1 0.30 mm and 2 0.15 mm shims as selected from the shim thickness chart below. Shim size are supplied in the following thicknesses: Drive Pinion Gear Shim Thickness (mm) 0.15 0.30 0.40 0.50

TROUBLESHOOTING The following conditions may indicate damaged shaft drive components: A Symptoms B A. B. C. D. E. F. G.
CHAS
Possible Causes Bearing damage. Improper gear lash. Gear tooth damage. Broken drive shaft. Broken gear teeth. Seizure due to lack of lubrication. Small foreign object lodged between moving parts.
1. A pronounced hesitation or jerky movement during acceleration, deceleration, or sustained speed. (This must not be confused with engine surging or transmission characteristics.) 2. A rolling rumble noticeable at low speed; a high-piched whine; a clunk from a shaft drive component or area. 3. A locked-up condition of the shaft drive mechanism; no power transmitted from engine to rear wheel.
NOTE: Areas A, B, and C above may be extremely difficult to diagnose. The symptoms are quite subtle and difficult to distinguish from normal motorcycle operating noise. If there is reason to believe these components are damaged, remove the components for specific inspection.
6-48
SHAFT DRIVE
CHAS
Inspection Notes 1. Inrestigate any unusual noises The following Noises may indicate a mechanical defect: a. A rolling rumble noise during coasting, acceleration, or deceleration. The noise increases with rear wheel speed, but it does not increase with higher engine or transmission speeds. Diagnosis: Possible wheel bearing damage. b. A whining noise that varies with acceleration and deceleration. Diagnosis: Possible incorrect reassembly, too-little gear lash.
CAUTION:
Too-little gear lash is extremely destructive to the gear teeth. If a test ride following reassembly indicates this condition, stop riding immediately to minimize gear damage. c. A slight thunk evident at low speed operation. This noise must be distinguished from normal motorcycle operation. Diagnosis: Possible broken gear teeth.
WARNING:
Stop riding immediately if broken gear teeth are suspected. This condition could result in a locking-up of the shaft drive assembly, causing loss of control of the dike and possible injury to the rider. 2. Inspect: S Drained oil Drain plug shows large amount of metal. Particles ! Check bearing fur seizure. NOTE: A small amount of metal particles in the oil is normal.

Oil leakage inspection steps: S Clean the entire motorcycle thoroughly, then dry it. S Apply a leak-localizing compound or dry powder spray to the shaft drive. S Road test the motorcycle for the distance necessary to locate the leak. Leakage ! Inspect component housing, gasket,and/or seal for damage. Damage ! Replace component. 1 Oil seal 2 O-ring 3 Forward NOTE: S An apparent oil leak on a new or nearly new motorcycle may be the result of a rest-preventative coating or excessive seal lubrication. S Always clean the motorcycle and recheck the suspected location of an apparent leakage.

Where: a = a numeral (usually a decimal number) on the gear is either added to or subtracted from 84. b = a numeral on the gear case (i.e. 83.50) Example: 1) If final drive shaft gear is marked +01 . . . a is 84.01. 2) If the gear case is marked 83.50 . . . b is 83.50. A = 84.01 83.50 = 0.51 3) Therefore, shim thickness is 0.51 mm. Shim sizes are supplied in following thicknesses: Final Drive Gear Shim
Thickness (mm)

Where: c = numeral on gear case (i.e. 45.52) d = numeral (usually a decimal number) on outside of ring gear bearing housing and added to 3. e = numeral (usually a decimal number) on inside of ring gear either added to or subtracted from 35.40. f = bearing thickness (considered constant). Bearing Thickness f = 13.00 mm Example: 1) If gear case is marked 45.52 . . . c is 45.52. 2) If ring gear bearing housing is marked 35 . . . d is 0.35 + 3 = 3.35. 3) If ring gear is marked +01 . . . e is 35.40 + 0.01 = 35.41. 4) f is 13.00. B = c + d (e + f) = 45.52 + 3.35 (35.41 + 13.00) = 48.87 (48.41) = 0.46 5) Therefore, shim thickness is 0.46 mm. Shim sizes are supplied in following thickness: Ring Gear Shim Thickness (mm) 0.25 0.30 0.35 0.40 0.45 0.50

STARTING CIRCUIT CUT-OFF SYSTEM A starting circuit cut-off system is employed, and operates as follows: Starting Circuit Operation The starting circuit on this model consist of the starter motor, starter relay, and the relay unit (starting circuit cut-off relay). If the engine stop switch and the main switch are both on, the starter motor can operate only if: The transmission is in neutral (the neutral switch is on). or if The clutch lever is pulled to the handlebar (the clutch switch is on). The starting circuit cut-off relay prevents the starter from operating when neither of these conditions has been met. In this instance, the starting circuit cut-off relay is off so current cannot reach the starter motor. When one of both of the above conditions have been met, however, the starting circuit cut-off relay is on, and the engine can be started by pressing the starter switch.

DESCRIPTION This model is equipped with a battery operated, fully transistorized, breakerless ignition system. By using magnetic pickup coils, the need for contact breaker points is eliminated. This adds to the dependability of the system by eliminating frequent cleaning and adjustment of points and ignition timing. The TCI (Transistor Control Ignition) unit incorporates an automatic advance circuit controlled by signals generated by the pickup coil. This adds to the dependability of the system by eliminating the mechanical advancer. This TCI system consists of two units; a pickup unit and an ignitor unit.

Pressure sensor Pickup coil Ignitor unit Advance control Electronic advance circuit Ignition coil 4 Spark plug 4 Battery
OPERATION TCI Unit The TCI functions on the same principle as a conventional DC ignition system with the exception of using magnetic pickup coils and a transistor control box (TCI) in place of contact breaker points. 1 TCI unit
Pickup Unit The pickup unit consists of two pickup coils 1 and a flywheel mounted onto the crankshaft. When the projection on the flywheel passes a pickup coil, a signal is generated and transmitted to the ignitor unit. The width of the projection on the flywheel determines the ignition advance. The pickup coils are located in the right crankcase cover.

SELF-CANCELLING FLASHER SYSTEM TEST Description The self-cancelling flasher system turns off the turn signal after a period of time or distance involved in turning or changing lanes. Generally, the signal will cancel after either 10 seconds, or 150 meters (490 feet), whichever is greater. At very low speed, the function is determined by distance; at high speed, especially when changing speeds the cancelling determination is a combination of both times and distance. The self-cancelling determination is a commechanism only operates when the motorcycle is moving; thus the signal will not self-cancel while you are stopped at an intersection. 1 Cancelling unit
