    ROUTINE TESTING FRONT BRAKE Pulling in the front brake lever operates the front brake by pumping brake fluid from the master cylinder to the front brake calliper. The brake pads are pushed by the calliper pistons against the front disc. Slowing the bike down. The braking surface of the disc should be free of oil and dirt to ensure maximum braking efficiency.

    TYRES The tyre pressure directly effect the road holding ride comfort and braking distance, the, therefore check the tyre pressures regularly for your own safety. Make sure that the rim is central and not damaged, as well as the wear on the tyres. Do not overload the vehicle as this will effect stability, and increases tyre wear.
  • Page 29: Motorcycle Operation

    MORTORBIKE OPERATION It is very important to know how to operate your vehicle correctly. NOTE: remember that you must not leave the motor running in an enclosed area, as the toxic gas from the exhaust could cause serious health problems. STARTING AND RIDING.
  • Page 30: Running In

    RUNNING IN The most important period of your mortorbike’s life is between 0 and 500 kilometres and because of this we ask you to read the following instructions carefully. In the first 500 kilometres, the mortorbike must not be overworked as the motor is new and the different parts of the motor have to wear in, until it works perfectly. During this period, avoid prolonged use of the mortorbike at high revolutions or in conditions that could cause overheating.
  • Page 31: Stopping

    CARBURETTOR The carburettor provides the correct petrol air mixture to the engine. It the settings are tampered with poor performance and/or overheating may occur. If you have any problems please refer to your Rieju dealer.
  • Page 32: Front Suspension

    Oil capacity: 310 c.c. per leg Type oil recommended: SAE 10W REAR SUSPENSION Marathon 125/200 PRO: The rear suspension consists of a gas-assisted hydraulic mono-shock absorber with separate gas reservoir and spring preload adjustment via the nut located under the shock absorber spring by means of the PRS progressive articulated rod system.
  • Page 33: Cooling System

    COOLING SYSTEM The radiator is mounted on the front right-hand side of the mortorbike behind a protective grill; The radiators propose is to maintain a constant engine temperature by cooling the hot water which is pumped around the engine. To check the level of coolant, carefully undo the radiator cap off and top up if necessary.
  • Page 34: Spark Plug Checks

    SPARK PLUG CHECK The spark plug is an important part of the motor and it is easy to check. Take the spark plug out and check it periodically, the high combustion temperatures and carbon deposits may effect the efficiency of the engine.
  • Page 35: Air Filter

    AIR FILTER To ensure that the engine runs correctly, the air filter must be kept clean and oiled. In order to access the air filter, disassemble the mortorbike seat, allowing free access to the filter box. Remove the cover, which is attached to the box by a screw, and remove the filter housing.
  • Page 36 After removal, check to see if the foam filter is blocked, in which case wash in paraffin, apply some air filter foam oil then squeeze the filter material between your hands to remove surplus oil. Do not wring out the filter element, as this will damage the foam. When refitting the air filter sure that the foam fits the box correctly so that no air can enter the engine wit- hout being filtered.
  • Page 37: Transmission, Rear Chain Adjustment And Lubrication

    TRANSMISSION CHAIN ADJUSTING AND LUBRICATION To correct the chain tension, loosen the rear axel bolts and turn the adjustment plates of the rear wheel axle clockwise to tighten the chain and anti-clockwise to loosen the chain. Turn the rear Chain tensioner wheel several times and check the tension in various areas to find the point at which the chain is at its tightest point.
  • Page 38 Try not to over tighten the chain, as it will stretch and wear the sprockets much quicker and may dama- ge the gearbox. If the wheel and chain are badly aligned, this can cause the chain to come off, and severely affect the bikes handling.
  • Page 39: Gearbox Oil Change

    GEARBOX OIL CHANGE. The gearbox and the clutch are lubricated by the action of the same gearbox oil. The recommen- ded oil is SAE 10W 30 / SAE 20W 50, with a total gearbox capacity of 1000 c.c. A drainage bolt situated in the bottom right-hand side of the motor empties the gearbox.
