Never open the radiator cap of a machine that has a hot or warm engine or one
that has recently been ridden. Burning and scalding could occur.
CAUTION:
It is important that the radiator cap is installed correctly and completely otherwise
engine damage could occur.
Starting Procedure
Before starting the machine inspect the following:
•
Check for proper tire pressure in both tires.
•
Observe the chain tension and adjust if necessary.
•
Observe the coolant level and fill if necessary.
•
Verify that the chain rollers and sliders do not have improper wear.
•
Verify that the handlebars are tight.
•
Check the throttle for smooth operation and sound closing.
•
Check for loose bolts and nuts, and re-torque as necessary.
•
Verify that the air filter is clean and properly saturated with oil.
•
Insure that the fuel tank contains an adequate volume of fuel / oil mixture to
complete the distance required. (High octane pump gas with Cobra’s
specially formulated
Cobra Venom
2-cycle Race Oil
)
•
Turn the fuel on by rotating the fuel petcock knob to the vertically downward
position (reserve position is horizontally forward)
CAUTION:
For best results from your Cobra Motorcycle use only the recommended fuels.
Testing has shown that most ‘race’ fuels actually degrade performance.
When your pre-ride inspection is complete the bike may be started. For a cold
engine follow this procedure.
1.
Place the motorcycle on a stand of sufficient strength that positions the
motorcycle in a level upright position with the rear wheel off the ground.
2.
Pull up the choke knob and turn it to lock it.
3.
Kick start the engine.
4.
Rev the engine in short spurts, turning the throttle no more than 1/4 open
until the engine will run without the choke.
5.
Verify a functional engine shut-off switch by shutting off the engine.
6.
Restart the engine and proceed with riding when the engine is sufficiently
warm (i.e. the side of the cylinder is warm to touch).
CAUTION:
Never rev an engine full throttle when it's cold or slightly warmed up. Also, for
best clutch performance, warm up the bike before taking off.
