1. Stand the motorcycle on a level surface.
Place the motorcycle on a suitable stand.
Make sure that the motorcycle is upright.

3. Check:
coolant level
The coolant level should be between the
maximum level mark
a
and minimum lev-
el marks b .
Below the minimum level mark Add the
recommended coolant to the proper level.
Adding water instead of coolant lowers
the antifreeze content of the coolant. If
water is used instead of coolant, check
and correct the antifreeze concentra-
tion of the coolant.
Use only distilled water. Soft water may
be used if distilled water is not avail-
able.
4. Start the engine, warm it up for several min-
utes, and then turn it off.
