ting during motorcycle run, do not reduce
it.
Low
pressure will lead
to
excessive
heating
of
the
tyroes and
their premature
wear.
.
Clean the
motorcycle
after
eac:h ride. For cleaning
the engine
and the
gear box,
it
is
preferable to
use
a bris'tle
brush moistened
wi.th
kerosene.
The chromium-plated parts should be washed with
water
using
a
soft cloth
or spon·ge,
and then wiped dry with
cotton
wastes,
rags
or chamois
leather. To make
the
chromium-plated
parts
lustrous, it
is advisable to
polish
them after drying with a piece of
chamois
leather.
Only a cooled engiine may be flus:hed
with water
from a
hose.
When
flushing, avoid
using too
strong a water jet, do
not
aim
the
jet
directly at the generator, cur-rent-and-voltage
regulator,
head-
lamp, ai
r
filter and canburettor.
The
moisture
that gets inside some
of the
units
may cause
corrosion and
lead
to
difficult-to-repair
da-
mage.
The
air
choke
of the air filter
must
be
closed
during
washing.
Avoid
driving
the
motorcycle
into water for washing pur.poses or
stopping the engine while overcoming
the
ford, if the water
level
is
above the
silencer
openings.
RUNNING-IN
TH
E NEW MOTORCYCLE
The
correct
running-in
of
a new motorcycle prolongs its service
life.
The
running-in of the
motorcycle
is divided into
two
stages: an
up
to
1000 km run
and
1000 to 2500
km
run.

The
carburettors
are
provided with motorcycle speed-limit
devi-
ces.
After the first 1000 km run, these
devices
should be made
shor-
ter, and,
after
2500
km,
remov,ed at all.
However, the
throttles must
not be fully
opened,
since the
speed-limit
devices
cannot
be
com-
pletely relied
on.
D
uring the
entire
running-in period, the load
on
the motorcycle must
not
exceed 50 per
cent of the
maximum
figure.
The motorcycle must
not
be
overloaded
by ·riding
over
heavy
road s.
