STARTING THE ENGINE
Check the fuel lever to make sure that it is at "ON"
position.
When the transmission is in neutral, netural
indicator will light.
RIDING TIPS
If it is the first time that you have ridden a
motorcycle of this type, we suggest that you
practice on a non-public road to become
thoroughly familiar with controls and
operation of the motorcycle.
One-hand riding is extremely dangerous.
Keep both hands firmly on the handlebars
and feet securely on the footrests. Under no
circumstances should both hands be removed
from the handlebars.
Don't brake hard in the midst of cornering.
Slow down to a safe speed before negotiating
a corner.
When the road surface is wet or slippery,
there is a reduction in tire traction. You
should reduce speed when ever these
conditions exists as braking and cornering
ability are reduced.
At side winds which may be experienced at
the exits of tunnels, when passing by the cut
of hill, or when being overtaken by larger
vehicles, you should reduce speed and ride
alertly.
Obey the speed limit and traffic regulations
at all times.
WHEN THE ENGINE IS COLD
Turn the choke lever from "A" position to "B"
WARNING!

in neutral.

position, push the electric start button or depress the
kick starter lever to start the engine. Immediately after
the engine starts, let the engine run until the engine
sufficiently warms up, then return the choke lever to
its original position, when the engine runs smoothly
and the choke lever is in its disengaged position, the
engine is warmed up sufficiently. The more cool is
the temperature, the more time is needed for warming
up the engine.
WHEN THE ENGINE IS WARM
Open the throttle by 1/8 to 1/4. Push the electric
srarter button or depress the kick starter lever. The
operation of the carburetor choke system is usually
not necessary when the engine is warm (the choke lever
should be at “A” position).
STARTING OFF
Automatic clutch
Stamp down the shifting lever, the first gear is
engaged. Twist the throttle lever toward yourself, the
motorcycle moves forward.
For shifting to next higher gear, slowly increase
the speed , then shut off the throttle. Turn shifting lever
to next higher gear and open the throttle, the highest
gear can be engaged by following these steps.
NOTE:
If 2~3 times operation can not start the
engine, open the throttle grip 1/8 to 1/4 turn,
then restart the engine.
A motorcycle not used for long-time or poor
vaporized fuel may cause difficult starting, in
this time, don’t turn the throttle grip, but
repeatedly start the engine.
WARNING:
Do not run the engine indoor where there is
little or no ventilation available. Carbon
monoxide fumes are extremely poisonous. Never
leave the motorcycle running while unattended,
even for a moment.
CAUTION:
Do not let engine run excessively without
riding, or it will overheat and may damage
internal engine components.
