PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT
Periodic inspection, adjustment, and lubrication will keep
your vehicle in the safest and most efficient condition
possible. Safety is an obligation of the vehicle owner/
operator. The most important points of vehicle inspection,
adjustment, and lubrication are explained on the following
pages.
WARNING
Failure to properly maintain the vehicle or performing
maintenance activities incorrectly may increase your
risk of injury or death during service or while using the
vehicle. If you are not familiar with vehicle service, have
a dealer perform the service.
WARNING
Turn off engine when performing maintenance unless
otherwise specified.
● A running engine has moving parts that can catch
on body parts or clothing and electrical parts that
can cause shocks or fires.
● Running the engine while servicing can lead to eye
injury, burns, fire, or carbon monoxide poisoning -
possibly leading to death.
WARNING
Brake discs, calipers, drums, and linings can become very
hot during use. To avoid possible burns, let brake
components cool before touching them.
The intervals given in the periodic maintenance charts should
be considered as a general guide under normal riding
conditions. However, DEPENDING ON THE WEATHER,
TERRAIN, GEO-GRAPHICAL LOCATION, AND INDIVIDUAL
USE, THE MAINTENANCE INTERVALS MAY NEED TO BE
SHORTENED.
