Checking & Adding Oil
Engine Oil
Servicing Your Honda
Park your motorcycle on a firm, level
surface.
Clean around the oil filler cap/dipstick ( )
and nearby surfaces.
Insert the dipstick until it seats, but do not
screw it in.
Remove the dipstick and check the oil level.
Hold the motorcycle upright.
Immediately unscrew and remove the oil
filler cap/dipstick. Wipe it clean.
Start the engine and let it idle for 5 minutes.
If the air temperature is below 10°C (50°F),
let the engine idle for an additional 5
minutes (a total of 10 minutes).
An engine that is not warmed sufficiently
may give an inaccurate (low) oil level
reading.
During idling, make sure your motorcycle is
supported in an upright position to assure an
accurate oil level reading. Stop the engine.
(cont’d)
If the oil is at or near the UPPER level
mark ( ), you do not have to add oil.
If the oil is below or near the LOWER
level mark ( ), add the recommended oil
until it reaches the UPPER level mark.
(Do not overfill.)
