WARNING
Inadequate throttle cable play
can cause engine speed to rise
suddenly when you turn the
handlebars. This can lead to
loss of rider control.
Adjust the throttle cable play
so that engine idle speed does
not rise due to handlebar
movement.

FUEL HOSES

Inspect the fuel hose for damage
and fuel leakage. If any defects
are found, the fuel hose must be
replaced.
