During first 1000 km, do not operate the
vehicle more than 60 km/hr speed in top gear,
45 km/hr in third gear, 30 km/hr in second
gear and 15 km/hr in first gear. Avoid full
throttle operation.

Running in
•
After the engine has been warmed up, the
vehicle is ready for riding.
•
Slowly release the clutch lever and at the
same time, gradually increase engine speed
by opening the throttle. Coordination of the
throttle and clutch lever will assure a smooth
positive start.
•
When the vehicle attains a moderate speed,
close the throttle, press the clutch lever an shift
nd
to 2 gear by depressing the gearshift pedal.
•
While the engine is idling, press the clutch
lever and depress the gearshift pedal to shift
st
into 1 (low) gear.
•
The sequence is repeated progressively to

th
shift 3 and 4 (top gear).
If the engine fails to start after repeated attempts, it
may be flooded with excess fuel. To clear a flooded
engine, turn the ignition switch “OFF” and turn the
choke lever to “OFF”. Close the throttle fully and
crank the engine several times with the kick starter.
Turn the ignition switch “ON” and start the engine
without using choke.
RIDING
During initial running in, newly machined
surfaces will be in contact with each other and
these surfaces will wear in quickly. Running in
precautions till 1000 km will reduce initial
wear of engine components and increase its
service life.
Do not shift gears without operating clutch and
without closing the throttle otherwise this
would lead to damage of gears.
