Checking the gear oil level
To check the gear oil level, first remove the plug [5]. With the motorcycle parked
in an upright position, a small quantity of oil should flow out of the indicator
opening [6]. If oil must be added, tilt the motorcycle and pour gear oil (Motorex

ATF Super) into the bore.
Less oil or a poor oil quality lead to premature transmission wear. Therefore,

only use branded products (Motorex ATF Super).
Changing gear oil *
The engine must be warmed up before changing the gear oil. Park the motor-
cycle on a horizontal surface, remove the oil drain plug [7] and drain the used
oil into an appropriate container. Clean the sealing surface, mount the oil drain
plug together with the gasket and tighten to 15 Nm.

Remove stopper [8] and fill in 0.15-0.2 liters of automatic gear oil (Motorex
