”
.
Clean and oil the chain periodically, as fol-
lows:
1. Clean the chain with kerosene. If the
chain tends to rust, the interval must be
shortened. Kerosene is a petroleum
product and will provide some lubrica-
tion as well as cleaning action.
Kerosene can be hazardous. Kerosene
is flammable. Children or pets may be
harmed from contact with kerosene.
Keep flames and smoking materials
away from kerosene. Keep children and
pets away from kerosene.
If swallowed, do induce vomiting. Call a
physician immediately.

it is hot : a hot muffler can burn you.

BRAKE FLUID
Be sure to check the brake fluid level in
the master cylinder. If the level was found
to be lower than the lower mark while
holding the motorcycle upright, replenish

As the brake pads wear, the fluid level will
drop to compensate for the new position of
barke pads.
