HOW TO RIDE THE MOTORCYCLE
117
General
Make sure that the motorcycle has been
maintained according to the scheduled
maintenance chart.
Brakes
Check that the front and rear brakes
are functioning correctly.
Coolant
Check that the coolant level is at the
upper level line in the expansion tank.
Always check the level with the engine
cold.
Electrical Equipment
Make sure that all electrical equipment
such as the headlight, rear/brake light,
direction indicators and horn all work
correctly.
Engine Oil
Check that the engine oil level is correct.
Make sure that the correct grade and
type of oil is used when topping up.
Drive Chain
Make sure that the drive chain is
correctly adjusted and lubricated.
Inspect the chain for wear and damage.
Fuel
NOTICE
In many countries, the exhaust
system for this model is fitted with a
catalytic converter to help reduce
exhaust emission levels.
Use of leaded fuel will damage the
catalytic converter. In addition, the
catalytic converter can be
permanently damaged if the
motorcycle is allowed to run out of
fuel or if the fuel level is allowed to get
very low.
Always make sure you have adequate
fuel for your journey.
Have sufficient fuel for the increased
fuel consumption that will result from
high speed operation.
Luggage
Make sure that any luggage containers
are closed, locked and securely fitted to
the motorcycle.
