Sparkplug
Chain tension
The transmission chain transmits the engine’s movement to the
rear wheel. To ensure that is works correctly, it should be checked.
The axle has easily adjustable eccentrics
for tensing the chain and centring the
wheel.
The chain hook should be positioned in
an opposite direction to the gear, as can
be seen in the photo.
The chain tension should permit 2 cm of
oscillation in the chain tension adjuster.

To access the sparkplug detach the upper section of the motor-
cycle (see page 29). Once the upper cover has been removed,
the motorcycle’s electrical system can be accessed. Carefully
but firmly, pull away the hood that provides a current, leaving the
upper part of the sparkplug exposed. Using a special sparkplug
key, unscrew it.
The sparkplug should be checked regularly and a spa-
re sparkplug should be carried at all times in case it
comes off. The sparkplug can accumulate charcoal
and dirt with use. For this reason, it can be removed
and cleaned so that it lasts longer.
Observe the distance between the
electrode and the arch. This distance
should be 0,5-0,6 mm.
NOTE: The sparkplug should not be
handled if the motorcycle is hot.
