SERVICE PRECAUTIONS
Make sure to install new gaskets, O-rings,
circlips, cotter pins, etc. when
reassembling.
When tightening bolts or nuts, begin with

larger-diameter to smaller ones at several
times, and tighten to the specified torque
diagonally.
Use genuine parts and lubricants.
When servicing the motorcycle, be sure

to use special tools for removal and
installation.
After disassembly, clean removed parts.

Lubricate sliding surfaces with engine oil
before reassembly.
1-3
Apply or add designated greases and

lubricants to the specified lubrication
points.
After reassembly, check all parts for

proper tightening and operation.
When two persons work together, pay

attention to the mutual working safety.
Disconnect the battery negative (-)

terminal before operation.
When using a spanner or other tools,
make sure not to damage the motorcycle
surface.
After operation, check all connecting

points, fasteners, and lines for proper
connection and installation.
When connecting the battery, the positive
(+) terminal must be connected first.
After connection, apply grease to the
battery terminals.
Terminal caps shall be installed securely.
1-4
If the fuse is burned out, find the cause

and repair it. Replace it with a new one Confirm
according to the specified capacity. Capacity
After operation, terminal caps shall be

installed securely.
When taking out the connector, the lock

on the connector shall be released before
operation.
Hold the connector body when

connecting or disconnecting it.
Do not pull the connector wire.
Check if any connector terminal is

bending, protruding or loose.
1-5
The connector shall be inserted

completely.
If the double connector has a lock,
lock it at the correct position. Snapping!
Check if there is any loose wire.
Before connecting a terminal, check

for damaged terminal cover or loose
negative terminal.
Check the double connector cover for

proper coverage and installation.
Insert the terminal completely.

Check the terminal cover for proper
coverage.
Do not make the terminal cover opening
face up.
Secure wire harnesses to the frame with

their respective wire bands at the
designated locations.
Tighten the bands so that only the
insulated surfaces contact the wire
harnesses.
1-6
After clamping, check each wire to make

sure it is secure.
Do not squeeze wires against the weld or

its clamp.
After clamping, check each harness to

make sure that it is not interfering with
any moving or sliding parts.
When fixing the wire harnesses, do not

make it contact the parts which will No Contact !
generate high heat.
Route wire harnesses to avoid sharp

edges or corners. Avoid the projected
ends of bolts and screws.
Route wire harnesses passing through the
side of bolts and screws. Avoid the
projected ends of bolts and screws.
1-7
Route harnesses so they are neither

pulled tight nor have excessive slack. Do not pull
too tight!
Protect wires and harnesses with

electrical tape or tube if they contact a
sharp edge or corner.
When rubber protecting cover is used to

protect the wire harnesses, it shall be
installed securely.
Do not break the sheath of wire.

If a wire or harness is with a broken
sheath, repair by wrapping it with
protective tape or replace it.
Do not press or
When installing other parts, do not press squeeze the wire.
or squeeze the wires.
1-8
After routing, check that the wire

harnesses are not twisted or kinked.
Wire harnesses routed along with

handlebar should not be pulled tight, have
excessive slack or interfere with adjacent
or surrounding parts in all steering
positions.
When a testing device is used, make sure Do you understand

to understand the operating methods the instrument? Is the
thoroughly and operate according to the instrument set correctly?
operating instructions.
Be careful not to drop any parts.
When rust is found on a terminal, remove

the rust with sand paper or equivalent Remove Rust !
before connecting.
Do not bend or twist control cables.

Damaged control cables will not operate
smoothly and may stick or bind.

WARNING
Before running the engine, make sure that the working area is well-ventilated. Never run the
engine in a closed area. The exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas which may
cause death to people.
Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under some conditions. The working area
must be well-ventilated and do not smoke or allow flames or sparks near the working area or
fuel storage area.

SERVICE INFORMATION
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
The service and maintenance of this section can be performed with the engine installed in the
frame.
Use care when removing and installing the oil pump not to allow dust and foreign matters to
enter the engine and oil line.
The oil pump must be replaced as a set when it reaches its service life.
After the oil pump is installed, check each part for oil leaks and improper lubrication.
When removing and installing the oil cooler, be careful not to bend or deform the oil pipe.

SERVICE INFORMATION
Gasoline is very dangerous. When working with gasoline, keep sparks and flames away from the
working area.
Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain conditions. Be sure to
work in a well-ventilated area.
Do not bend or twist control cables. Damaged control cables will not operate smoothly.
When disassembling fuel system parts, note the locations of O-rings. Replace them with new ones during
reassembly.
Before float chamber disassembly, loosen the drain screw to drain the residual gasoline into a clean container.
After the carburetor is removed, plug the intake manifold side with a clean shop towel to prevent foreign
matters from entering.
The carburetor air jets and fuel jets must be cleaned with compressed air.
When the motorcycle is not used for over one month, drain the residual gasoline from the float chamber to
avoid erratic idling and clogged slow jet due to deteriorated fuel.

Check the spark plug heat range. Use of spark plug with improper heat range is the main cause of
poor engine performance or burned engine.
Perform inspections according to the servicing procedures specified in each section.

SERVICE INFORMATION
The battery is a MF battery which needs no refilling of distilled water.
Do not quick charge the battery. Be sure to use a MF battery charger and the battery temperature
should not exceed 45.
Remove the battery from the motorcycle for charging. If the battery must be charged on the
motorcycle, keep sparks and flames away from a charging battery.
When inspecting the A.C. generator, use an electric tester.
Route the charging system wires properly to avoid shorted wire due to wires being twisted or
kinked.

All plastic plugs have locking tabs that must be released before disconnecting.
An electric tester must be used for checking the continuity between two points. The electric
tester also contains a voltmeter which can be used to measure voltage.
Different bulbs have different specifications. When replacing, use a new bulb of the same
specifications to avoid damage of the electrical equipment.
