The engine oil level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the oil
must be changed and the oil filter car-
tridge replaced at the intervals speci-
fied in the periodic maintenance and
lubrication chart.
To check the en
g
ine oil level
1. Place the vehicle on a level surfa-
ce and hold it in an upright posi-
tion. A slight tilt to the side can
result in a false reading.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.
3. Wait a few minutes for the oil level
to settle for an accurate reading.
4. Remove the engine oil dipstick
and wipe it clean, insert it back
into the hole (without screwing it
in), and then remove it again to
check the oil level.
TIP
The engine oil should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
5. Check the dipstick O-ring for
damage, and replace it if neces-
sary.
6. If the engine oil is at or below the
minimum level mark, remove the
engine oil filler cap, and then add
sufficient oil of the recommended
type to raise it to the correct level.
