After running for every 1,000
km, adjust the tightness of driving
chain so that the movable distance
between the two chain sprockets is
kept within 25 --- 35mm.
1. Support the motorcycle with the
side stand.
2. Loosen the nut of rear wheel
shaft.
3. Screw out the locking nut.
4. The chain can be adjusted by
turning the adjusting bolt
clockwise and counterclockwise.
Note:
When a new chain is replaced,
the two chain sprockets must be
checked. If necessary, make
replacement.
CAUTION
The opening end of chain
joint should be installed in reverse
to the turning direction.

The dust and dirt on the
driving chain will increase the
wearing of the chain itself and
chain sprockets. Therefore, clean the
driving chain with cleaning
detergent and then lubricate it using
special lubricant or motor oil after
riding for every 1,000 km.
Tire
After the first 1,000 km and
every 3,000 km, check the air
pressure and tire tread. For the sake
of safety and longer service time, the
air pressure of tire should be often
checked.
Air Pressure of Tires
If the air pressure of tires is
not sufficient, it not only speeds up
the wearing of tire, but also
extremely affect the stability of
motorcycle. Insufficient air pressure
makes the motorcycle difficult to
turn. But excessive air pressure may
decrease the contact area between
the tire and ground and lead to the
slipping of motorcycle and even
losing of control. The air pressure
should be always kept with the
specified limit. Adjust the air
pressure as the tire is cold.
Air pressure of tires:
Front tire: 225 kpa
Rear tire: 225 kpa
Outer Tire Tread
Riding on the motorcycle with
its tire excessively worn will
decrease the stability of operation,
and may be out of control
accordingly. When the depth of outer
tire tread is reduced to 1.6 mm (0.06
inch) or less than this value,
replacement of outer tire is
