OIL LEVEL
Oil and filter change and cleaning of oil screen:
The oil is preferably changed while the engine is
warm.
Drain the oil by removing the oil drain plug (Fig.
7A-1, wrench No. 13) and the attached oil screen.
Remove the cover of the microfilter by removing
the ignition cable clamp (Fig. 7A-2, wrench No. 8)
and the two allen screws (Fig. 7A-3, allen key No.
4) and pull out the cover and filter by using one M
6 screw as a puller into the center of the cover.
Lubricate the surface of the cover's O-rings and
the O-ring of the new microfilter (Fig. 7B-2, 7B-3).
Insert the microfilter in reverse order of
disassembly.
Refit the oil drain plug and the attached, well
cleaned, oil screen.
Refill the engine with the adequate amount of oil;
1,0 litre, through the filler hole (Fig. 7C-1). Correct
level of oil as shown (Fig. 7C-2 & 7D)
Whenever checking the oil level the motorcycle/
engine has to be in an upright position.
LUBRICATION SYSTEM:
Always use a synthetic oil of a well-known brand,
viscosity SAE 5W-50.
Depending on the basic design of the engine;
competition purposes = equal to a small sized
engine thus giving a small capacity of oil, it is vital
that the oil is frequently changed.
Packed into the crate of a totally new motorcycle
is an additional microfilter. The filter installed in
the engine and the engine oil have to be changed
after the first two hours of operation. The oil screen
has to be fully cleaned at the same time.
After the first change of oil and filter, including
cleaning of the oil screen, the intervals are
maximum 5 hours (Motocross, Super Motard
Competition and Cross Country models) or 10
hours (all other models) regarding change of oil
and cleaning of the screen and every 25/50 hours
regarding exchange of the microfilter.
After every 100 hours the reed valve of the
lubication system has to be inspected and
cleaned.
