Observe Your Initial and Most
Critical Service
The initial service (break-in main-
tenance) is the most important
service your motorcycle will
receive. During break-in opera-
tion, all of the engine components
will have mated together and
seated. Maintenance required as
part of the initial service includes
correction of all adjustments,
tightening of all fasteners and
replacement of dirty oil. Timely
performance of this service will
help make sure you get the longer
service life and the best perfor-
mance from the engine.
INSPECTION BEFORE RIDING
WARNING
Failure to inspect and maintain
your motorcycle properly
increases the chance of an
accident or equipment dam-
age.
Always perform a pre-ride
inspection before each ride.
Refer to the following table for
check items. For further
details, refer to the INSPEC-
TION AND MAINTENANCE sec-
tion.
WARNING
Using worn, improperly
inflated, or incorrect tires will
reduce stability and can cause
an accident.
Follow all instructions in the
TIRES section in this owner’s
manual.
