17 - Changing the transmission oil

The engine has a capacity of 430 cc of transmission oil.
Do not mix different types of oil. Always top up using
the same type. We recommend using oil such as NILS
CLUTCH TRIAL.
The electric start system is lubricated with the same
oil engine. To change the oil, if the engine is cold, we
recommend start the motorcycle and let it run at idle
speed for 5 minutes. This will warm up the oil to the
right temperature for changing. Then place the motor-
cycle on the side stand unfold. Put a container below
the right drain plug and remove. Let all of the oil drain
out, and then clean the plug, removing any metal
shavings fixed on the magnet provide. Once it is clean,
check the cooper washer and replace if it is necessary
and tight the drain plug.
On the electric start engines, is necessary drain out
the remaining oil placed on the electric start cover.
To carry out, lie down the motorcycle up to 5º on the
left side and put a container below. Check the cooper
washer and replace if it is necessary and tight the drain
plug.
To fill the engine with oil, position the motorcycle
slightly inclined to the left (about 5º). Open the cap
on the clutch cover and add 380 cc of NILS clutch
Trial. Close the cap and check the level
through the sight glass on the clutch cover. The proper
level is when you see a bubble at the top of the sight
glass.
