Check the level every 10.000 km (6200 mi) or 12 months
1) Place the vehicle on a level surface on its centre stand.
2) Unscrew the dipstick (A - Fig. 25), clean it and refit it, wrench-
ing it tightly.
3) Pull it out again and check that the oil level is between the MIN
and MAX notches.
4) If the level is insufficient, top up until you almost reach the MAX
notch.
5) Fill the crankcase with this type of oil: Q8 ZC 90
Crankcase capacity approx.: 250 cm

every 20,000 km (12400 mi)
• Carry out the operations described above at points 1-2, with-
out refitting the dipstick; then put a container under the engine
crankcase and unscrew the drainage screw (B-Fig.26), paying
attention to the gasket.
• Let oil flow into the container (pay attention to avoid scorching).
• Refit the drain plug with gasket and fill with approximately 250
cm 3 of new oil (Q8 ZC 90), then refit the cap and dipstick (A -

• Now repeat checks 3-4-5.
If the drainage screw gasket is damaged, replace it.
Regularly check for oil leakages near the drain plug at
the rear wheel. If you notice any leaks, contact an
