MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
I
To keep your motorcycle safe and reliable when you ride, regular inspections and service is required.
Below you will find a maintenance schedule that describes when components need to be inspected or
serviced. The maintenance schedule lists item that can be performed with basic mechanical skills and hand
tools. In addition, the maintenance schedule will list items that involve more extensive procedures and could
require special training, tools and/or equipment.
Because this motorcycle does not have an odometer, service intervals in the maintenance schedule are
expressed in tenns of riding days. To avoid missing required maintenance, we suggest that you develop a
good way to record the amount of time you spend riding your motorcycle. If you do not feel capable of
performing any of the procedures described in this manual or if you need assistance, please contact your
nearest Crossfire Motorcycles dealer. If you decide to do your own maintenance, use only genuine
replacement parts that you have purchased from an Xmotos dealer or parts purchased directly from Crossfire
Motorcycles. This will ensure the best quality and reliability for your motorcycle.
Always perform the pre-ride inspection described on page 17 at each scheduled maintenance interval.
Each item on the maintenance schedule requires some mechanical knowledge. You will find that some items
in the table (marked • and **) may require a higher level of mechanical skill and special tools. If you do not
feel capable of performing any procedure, please consult your nearest Crossfire Motorcycles dealer.
• Indicates items that require a moderate to high level of mechanical skill. We recommend service by an
Xmotos dealer if the owner is not mechanically qualified.
