Warning
Petrol is extremely flammable and can
be explosive under certain conditions.
Turn the ignition switch OFF. Do not
smoke. Make sure the area is well
ventilated and free from any source of
flame or sparks; this includes any
appliance with a pilot light.
Remove one of the spark plugs from
each cylinder and put several drops
(5 ml) of engine oil into each cylinder.
Cover the spark plug holes with a piece
of cloth or rag. With the engine stop
switch in the RUN position, push the
starter button for a few seconds to coat
the cylinder walls with oil. Install the
spark plugs, tightening to 12 Nm.
Change the engine oil and filter (see
page 80).
Check and if necessary correct the tyre
pressures (see page 103).
Set the motorcycle on a stand so that
both wheels are raised off the ground.
(If this cannot be done, put boards
under the front and rear wheels to keep
dampness away from the tyres.)
