Refer to the chart below for the correct
oil viscosity (10W/40 or 10W/50) to be
used in your riding area.
Oil Viscosity Temperature Range
Do not add any chemical additives to
the engine oil. The engine oil also lubri-
cates the clutch and any additives could
cause the clutch to slip.
Do not use mineral, vegetable, non-de-
tergent oil, castor based oils or any oil
not conforming to the required specifi-
cation. The use of these oils may cause
instant, severe engine damage.
Make sure that no foreign matter enters
the crankcase during an engine oil
change or top up.
Cooling System
To ensure efficient engine cooling, check
the coolant level each day before riding
the motorcycle, and top up the coolant
if the level is low.
Note:
• A year round, Hybrid Organic Acid
Technology (known as Hybrid OAT
or HOAT) coolant is installed in the
cooling system when the motorcy-
cle leaves the factory. It is coloured
green, contains a 50% solution of
ethylene glycol based antifreeze,
and has a freezing point of -35°C
(-31°F).
Corrosion Inhibitors
Warning
HD4X Hybrid OAT coolant contains cor-
rosion inhibitors and antifreeze
suitable for aluminium engines and ra-
diators. Always use the coolant in
accordance with the instructions of
the manufacturer.
Coolant that contains anti-freeze and
corrosion inhibitors contains toxic
chemicals that are harmful to the hu-
man body. Never swallow antifreeze or
any of the motorcycle coolant.
