The transmission chain
Clean the transmission chain with a clean rag.
Soak the transmission chain in kerosene and remove any remai-

to dry completely.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
This motorbike is fi tted with a transmission chain complete with
small rubber O-rings (B) Fig. C, inserted between one side plate
and another.
To clean the transmission chain, do not use high-pressure jets of
water or air, do not use steam, petrol, aggressive solvents (such
as petroleum benzine), or brushes with overly stiff bristles.
Using high-pressure items could force dirt into the cavities inside
the transmission chain, while solvents could cause the O-rings
to deteriorate.
The O-rings could also be damaged by the use of brushes of
overly stiff bristles.
Therefore, we recommend exclusive use of kerosene to clean
the transmission chain.
Do not soak the transmission chain in kerosene for more than
10 minutes.
Kerosene can damage the O-rings.
Check:
•
O-rings (B)
In the event of damage, replace the transmission chain.
•
The transmission chain rollers (D)
In the event of damage/wear, replace the transmission chain.
•
The side plates of the transmission chain (C)
In the event of damage/wear, replace the transmission chain.
If there are any cracks, replace the transmission chain and
make sure that the bleeder pipe from the battery is correct and
suffi ciently distant from the transmission chain and below the
swinging arm.
