Disconnect the cap and remove the spark plug.

- Inspect the plug and if the insulator is chipped or

damaged, renew it.

- Measure the spark plug gap with a feeler gauge.

If necessary adjust the gap by bending the outer

electrode.

- Make sure the washer is in good condition.

- Fit the spark plug, screwing it in first by hand and

then tighten it to the prescribed torque with a plug

spanner.

Characteristic

Electrode gap

0.7 to 0.8 mm

Recommended spark - plug 1

Champion RG 4 HC

Recommended spark - plug

NGK CR9EB

Alternative spark plug

DENSO U24ESR-NB

Locking torques (N*m)

Spark plug

10 to 15 Nm

Hub oil

Check

Rest the vehicle on its centre stand on an even

surface.

- Unscrew the oil dipstick "

", dry it with a clean

cloth and reinsert it,

screwing it in thoroughly

- Pull out the dipstick and check that the oil level is

above the "middle" notch (dipstick with 3 notches).

For dipsticks with 2 notches, the oil level must re-

main in the lower half of the dipstick.

-Screw up the oil dipstick again and make sure it

is locked properly into place.
