SPOKE TIGHTNESS
Checking spoke tension
Correct spoke tension is very important
for the stability of the wheels and thus
for riding safety. A loose spoke causes
the wheel to become unbalanced and
before long other spokes will have
come loose. Check spoke tension,
especially on a new motorcycle, in
regular intervals. If necessary, have the
spokes retightened and the wheel to
correct by an AJP dealer.
! WARNING !
Spokes can tear if you continue to
ride with them loose. This may lead
to an unstable handling of your
motorcycle.
BATTERY
Battery has a closed system and
therefore requires no maintenance
(MF). It is not necessary to check the
electrolyte level or to refill water; simply
keep the battery poles clean and
slightly greased with acid-free grease if
necessary.
To access battery, remove the front left
plastic cover.
To remove the battery, first disconnect
the negative (- pole) and then the
positive pole (+ pole) of the battery and
then unhitch rubber band.
When replacing, connect first the
positive and then the negative pole.
When preparing the motorcycle for a
longer period of standstill, remove the
battery and recharge it every month in a
slow charge. Storage temperature: 0-
35ºC. Do not expose it to direct sun
radiation.
! CAUTION !
Never reverse polarity, otherwise
battery and rectifier-regulator will
be destroyed
Never disconnect battery while
engine is running. This will destroy
the rectifier-regulator.
! WARNING !
If electrolyte (sulphuric acid) leaks
from battery, proceed with great
care. Electrolyte can cause severe
burns.
In case of skin contact, clear
thoroughly with water.
In case of contact with eyes,
thoroughly apply them water for at
least 15 minutes and immediately
consult a doctor.
Battery is a closed model (MF) but
can nevertheless emit explosive
gases. Avoid sparks and open fire
near the battery
Defected batteries must be stored
out of reach of children. Ensure
proper
disposal
of
discarded
