CHAPTER ONE MAINTENANCE OF THE MOTORCYCLE Ⅰ Ⅰ Ⅰ Ⅰ . ITEMS OF MAINTENANCE When the motorcycle is used, parts loose and mechanical wear inevitably occur to varied extents. Neglecting of timely maintenance not only reduces its mechanical function, economic performance, stability and durability, but also threatens the safety of the motorcycle and the rider.
Ⅲ Ⅲ Ⅲ Ⅲ . MAINTENANCE SPECIFICATIONS The basic methods of motorcycle maintenance include inspection, adjustment, tightening, lubrication, cleaning, supplementing and replacement, which constitute the main elements of maintenance. 1. Inspection Inspection refers to basic inspecting operations in accordance with items and requirements specified in the user’s manual, including inspection with instruments or with eyes for abnormalities in machine parts, directly comparing related data and aligning with tools and gauges.
IV. THROTTLE ACTUATION INSPECTION Inspect throttle grip for easy and smooth movement. Inspect throttle free travel. Free travel: 2-6mm The main adjusting position is beside the carburetor. Remove rear store case inner cover. Adjust by loosening the fastening nut and turning the adjusting nut.
Ⅴ Ⅴ Ⅴ Ⅴ . AIR FILTER INSPECTION AND CLEANING After a certain mileage, dust and impurities will gather in air filter case and strainer, which will clog strainer pores and reduce inlet of air and thus lead to excessive concentration of mixed gas and reduce the performance of engine.
VII. BRAKE SYSTEM INSPECTION, ADJUSTMENT AND REPLACEMENT 1. Front brake (disk brake) Remove the bolts linking brake caliper and front shock absorber. Remove brake caliper. * Do not pull brake lever when brake caliper is removed so as to prevent jamming of brake blocks.
2. Rear Brake (disk brake) Remove the exhaust muffler. Remove the black dust cover. Remove the rear wheel nut. Remove the three mounting bolts of the rear wheel mounting base. Remove the rear wheel. Remove the bolts linking rear brake caliper and engine.
2. Rear Shock Absorber Press rear shock absorber to inspect actuation. Inspect rear shock absorber to see if there is oil leakage and if there is damage or loosening in machine parts. Lift rear wheel, press rear wheel right and left to inspect if engine suspension lug buffer bush is loose.
Inspect tire pressure by means of a tire pressure gauge * Tire pressure should be inspected when the motorcycle is in a cold state. Specified pressure Unit: KPa Front tire Rear tire Tire Specifications: Front tire 130/60-13 Rear tire 130/60-13 Inspect if front wheel nut is loose.
CHAPTER TWO MAINTENANCE INFORMATION I. FRAME NUMBER AND ENGINE NUMBER LOCATION II. PRECAUTIONS IN OPERATION Removed washers, 0-rings, elastic retaining rings and split pins must be replaced with new ones. When mounting bolts, nuts and screws, proceed from trial tightening, from larger diameters to smaller diameters and inner ones to outer ones in a diagonally order.
Connectors must be inserted home. When connecting connectors with locks, confirm that their locks are fastened. Confirm that the wires are not loose. Confirm that connectors’ plastic sleeves completely cover the connectors without fail. Before connecting the connectors, confirm that their sleeves are free from breakage and their terminals are not oversized.
