  • Page 16: Maintenance And Tune-Up Procedures

    PERIODIC MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE AND TUNE-UP PROCEDURES This section describes the servicing procedures for each item of the Periodic Maintenance requirements. AIR CLEANER Inspect each time the motorcycle is ridden and clean as necessary. If the air cleaner element is clogged with dust, intake resistance will be increased, with a resultant decrease in power output and increase in fuel consumption.
  • Page 17: Exhaust Pipe Bolts And Muffler Mounting Nut

    PERIODIC MAINTENANCE • Reinstall the cleaned or new air cleaner element in the reverse order of removal. The open mesh A of the air cleaner element must be faced outside. The surest way to accelerate engine wear is to operate the engine without the element or to use a torn ele- ment.

  • Page 27: Spoke Nipples

    2-15 PERIODIC MAINTENANCE TIRE PRESSURE If the tire pressure is too high or too low, steering will be adversely affected and tire wear will increase. Therefore, main- tain the correct tire pressure for good roadability and a longer tire life. Cold inflation tire pressure is as follows. Cold inflation tire pressure Front: 100 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm², 14 psi) Rear: 125 kPa (1.25 kgf/cm², 18 psi)
  • Page 28: Steering

    PERIODIC MAINTENANCE 2-16 STEERING Inspect initially at 1 month and every 6 months there- after. The steering should be adjusted properly for smooth turning of handlebars and safe operation. Overtight steering prevents smooth turning of the handlebars and too loose steering will cause poor stability.
