stabilised and adequately supported. This will help
prevent it from falling and causing injury to the
operator or damage to the motorcycle.

2. Disconnect the battery, negative (black) lead first.
Cooling
1. Bottom radiator hose
2. Water pump outlet hose

Do not remove the coolant pressure cap when the
engine is hot. When the engine is hot, the coolant
inside the radiator is hot and also under pressure.

damage.
