CAUTION:
Cobra has spent considerable time and money developing the proper lubrication
to handle the harsh environment of the automatic clutch and transmission of this
motorcycle. Cobra’s specially developed
Cobra Venom 3 Shoe Clutch Milk
(Part
#MCMUGF32) was formulated to provide superior lubrication and cooling
capability over extended periods of time and is the recommended lubricant for
your Cobra motorcycle.
Proper Chain adjustment
Tools required for chain adjustment
19 mm wrench or socket
13 mm wrench or socket
1. Make sure that the rear wheel is aligned
properly.
2. For proper adjustment, the chain should
have 35 mm (1 3/8”) free movement just
behind the chain block with no load on the
bike (figure 2)
CAUTION:
Sit on the bike and verify that the chain has a minimum of 12mm (1/2”) free
movement when the chain is at it’s tightest point.
3.
If the chain requires adjusting, loosen the
axle with a 19 mm wrench and tighten the
chain by rotating the adjustor bolts clockwise
(CW) or loosen the chain by rotating the
adjustor bolts (CCW).
4. Retighten the axel bolt to 25 ft-lb (34 Nm).
5. Retighten the adjustor bolt (figure 3)
Rear Brake Maintenance
CAUTION:
Too little brake pedal free-play will allow the brake pads to drag causing the pads
to wear prematurely and possible engine component failures. Too much free-play
will not allow the rider to apply the brakes quickly.
