SAFE OPERATING
MAINTENANCE
Perform the service and maintenance operations as
indicated in the regular service interval table. Lack
of regular maintenance at the recommended inter-
vals can affect the safe operation of your motorcycle,
which could result in death or serious injury.
Good maintenance creates a safe motorcycle. A careful
check of certain equipment must be made after periods
of storage. Also, frequently inspect the motorcycle be-
tween the regular service intervals to determine if addi-
tional maintenance is necessary.
Check the following items:
1. Tires for correct pressure, abrasion or cuts.
2. Drive chain for wear or damage
3. Brakes, steering and throttle for responsiveness and
freedom from binding.
4. Brake fluid level and condition. Hydraulic lines and
fittings for leaks. Also check brake pads and discs
for wear.

BREAK-IN MAINTENANCE

NOTE
New Motorcycle initial service is required to keep
your new motorcycle warranty in force and make sure
the emissions system operates properly.
After a new motorcycle has been ridden its first 620
miles (1000 kilometers) take it to an authorized EBR
Dealer to have an initial service performed.
If it is impossible to take it to a dealer at the mileage
intervals noted, the owner should:
1. Give the following outlined items attention or ar-
range to have the motorcycle serviced.
2. Take the motorcycle to a dealer for more complete
service as soon as possible.
We recommend a Dealer perform the initial service.
