Coolant
The coolant level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the cool-
ant must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
To check the coolant level
1. Place the motorcycle on a level
surface and hold it in an upright
position.
NOTE:
_
● The coolant level must be checked
on a cold engine since the level
varies with engine temperature.
●
Make sure that the motorcycle is
positioned straight up when
checking the coolant level. A slight
tilt to the side can result in a false
reading.
_
2. Check the coolant level in the
coolant reservoir.
NOTE:
_
The coolant should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
_
3. If the coolant is at or below the
minimum level mark, remove pan-
el A (See page 6-8 for panel re-
moval and installation
procedures.), remove the reser-
voir cap, add coolant to the maxi-
mum level mark, and then install
the reservoir cap and the panel.
