MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
When a drive belt is replaced, also re-
place the sprockets to increase the
longevity of the new drive belt.
Drive Belt Tension
While riding, if you feel vibrations in the
belt or if the belt is skipping sprocket
teeth, have the belt tension adjusted
as soon as possible by an authorized
Can-Am roadster dealer.
Engine Oil
NOTICE
The procedures for check-
ing the Spyder roadster oil level and
replacing oil are different from most
of the motor vehicles today. Prop-
erly follow instructions provided in
this section.
Recommended Engine Oil
The same oil is used for the engine,
gearbox, clutch, and the HCM in the
SE5 models.
Use the XPS SYNTHETIC BLEND OIL
(SUMMER GRADE) (P/N 293 600 121)
or a 5W 40 semi-synthetic (minimum)
or synthetic motorcycle oil meeting
the requirements for API service SL,
SJ, SH or SG classification. Always
check the API service label on the oil
container.
NOTICE
To avoid damaging the
clutch, do not use a motor oil meet-
ing the API service SM or ILSAC GF-4
classification. Clutch slippage will
occur.
Engine Oil Level Verification
NOTICE
To obtain a precise read-
ing of the engine oil level, follow this
procedure and make sure engine is
at normal operating temperature.
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Remove the LH middle side panel.
Refer to
BODY PANELS
in the
MAINTENANCE
PROCEDURES
subsection.
3. With the engine already at normal
operating temperature, start engine
and let it run for at least 30 seconds.
NOTE:
Running engine for at least
30 seconds allows the suction oil
pump to drain the oil from the engine
crankcase back into the oil tank. Not
carrying out this step could result in
overfilling the engine oil.
4. Stop engine.
5. Unscrew and remove the oil dip-
stick.
