Maintenance
_______________________________________________
< Lubrication and Cleaning >
Place the motorcycle on the side stand and
clean mud or dirt from the chain and
sprocket.
Move the motorcycle back and forward to
clean entire chain.
Avoid steam cleaning as the chain has
rubber seals.
Apply lubrication oil to both sides of the
chain roller so as to have the oil reach
entire part of the chain.
Excessive lubrication may result in
spattering oil on the body or on your
clothing.
"Genuine Honda Chain Oil"
Chain Oil:
Or gear oil (#80 ~ #90).
Advice

lubrication oil containing solvents.
They may shorten the life of the chain.
