POTENTIAL HAZARD
Removing the radiator cap when the engine
and radiator are still hot.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
You could be burned by hot fluid and steam
blown out under pressure.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

the cap. Allow any remaining pressure to
escape before completely removing the cap.
Throttle lever
Check to see that the throttle lever operates correctly. It must open smoothly and
spring back to the idle position when released. Have a dealer repair as necessary for
proper operation.
Fittings and fasteners
Always check the tightness of chassis fittings and fasteners before a ride. Take the
machine to a dealer or refer to the Service Manual for correct tightening torque.
