Maintenance and Lubrication: 0B-17
1) Clean the drive chain with kerosine. If the drive chain
tends to rust quickly, the intervals must be
shortened.
CAUTION
!
Do not use trichloroethylene, gasoline or any
similar solvent.
These fluids have too great a dissolving
power for this chain and they can damage the
O-rings. Use only kerosine to clean the drive
chain.
2) After cleaning and drying the chain, oil it with a
heavyweight motor oil.
CAUTION
!
• Do not use any oil sold commercially as
“drive chain oil”. Such oil can damage the
O-rings.
• The standard drive chain is a RK520
SMOZ10S. SUZUKI recommends to use
this standard drive chain as a replacement.
Brake System Inspection
B933H20206017
Inspect brake system
Initially at 1 months and every 3 months thereafter
WARNING
!
• The brake system of this vehicle is filled
with a glycol-based brake fluid. Do not use
or mix different types of fluid such as
silicone-based and petroleum-based
fluids. Do not use any brake fluid taken
from old, used or unsealed containers.
Never reuse brake fluid left over from the
last servicing or stored for a long period of
time.
• Brake fluid, if it leaks, will interfere with
safe running and immediately discolor
painted surfaces. Check the brake hoses
and hose joints for cracks and oil leakage
before riding.
Brake pads check
1) Remove the front wheel. Refer to “Front / Rear
Wheel Removal and Installation in Section 2D

observing the grooved limit line “A” on the side of
brake pad.
When the wear exceeds the grooved limit line,
replace the pads with new ones. Refer to “Front
Brake Pad Replacement in Section 4B (Page 4B-2)”
and “Rear Brake Pad Replacement in Section 4C
(Page 4C-2)”.
CAUTION
