Insure that the fuel tank contains an adequate volume of fuel / oil mixture to
complete the distance required.
Turn the fuel on by rotating the fuel petcock lever to the vertically downward
position.
CAUTION:
For best results from your Cobra Motorcycle use only the recommended fuels.
‘Race’ fuels can be used, however, they are not required with the stock engine,
and the engine will require addition attention to maintain proper jetting as
weather condition change throughout the day.
Always wear a helmet and other protective riding gear.
When your pre-ride inspection is complete the bike may be started. For a cold
engine follow this procedure.
1. Place the motorcycle on a stand of sufficient strength that positions the
motorcycle in a level upright position with the rear wheel off the ground.
2. Engage the choke by pulling out on the choke button until it stops.
3. Kick start the engine.
4. Rev the engine in short spurts, turning the throttle no more than 1/4 open
until the engine will run without the choke.
5. Verify a functional engine shut-off switch by shutting off the engine.
6. Restart the engine and proceed with riding when the engine is sufficiently
warm (i.e. the side of the cylinder is warm to touch).
CAUTION:
Never rev an engine full throttle when it's cold or slightly warmed up. This may
lead to premature wear of engine components or complete cold seizure of the
engine.
CAUTION:
Cobra recommends that you tell your child to take it easy the first couple of
minutes in practice until the engine comes up to full operating temperature.
Maintenance
It is important that you adhere to this maintenance schedule so as to promote the
longevity of your Cobra Motorcycle.
