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
panel B (See page 6-6 for panel
removal and installation proce-
dures.), remove the reservoir cap,
add coolant to the maximum level
mark, and then install the reservoir
cap and the panel.
