and have greatly reduced power.
WARNING: Sustained operation on only one cylinder for even
just a few minutes could overheat the cylinder and cause
irreversible damage to either the valves or piston. Thus it is
critical to immediately shut the engine down if it appears to
be running on only one cylinder.
Additional Warning:
Once the engine starts, do not allow it to run
at a high speed as this could cause abnormal wear of the parts
and may lead to seizure of the piston pin and pistons in the
cylinders since cold oil flows through the oil ducts with difficulty
and fails to ensure sufficient lubrication.
A correctly adjusted warm engine should run steadily at low speed
with the throttle control twist grip fully closed. Start driving the
motorcycle only after having warmed up the engine, with the
engine running steadily at low speed. In cold seasons do not run
the engine at high RPM during initial 3 miles or drive at a speed
exceeding 30 mph until the engine is fully warmed up.
