Maintenance
A properly maintained machine is safer, faster, and more fun to ride. It is
important that you adhere to this maintenance schedule so as to promote the
longevity of your Cobra Motorcycle
Tips
1. Recommended
lubricants:
a. Cobra Clutch Milk is by far the best
auto clutch lubricant.
It is a
full synthetic lubricant that has been specifically formulated for
Cobra’s auto clutch and has;
Exceptional film strength over petroleum based oils or
synthetic blends.
Extreme temperature tolerance.
NO frictional modifiers.
Dispersant package to keep clutch fibers in suspension so
they can be flushed out when the oil is changed.
Extremely low viscosity for minimal drag and ‘windage’.
b.
Bel-Ray H1-R
oil is the recommended
premix oil
because:
Its Ester base leaves a film on all parts at all times. No metal
to metal startups or corrosion potential.
Exception film strength over petroleum based oils or other
synthetic blends.
Easily atomizes and burns completely.
Does not fall out of suspension from premix in cold weather.
Produces virtually no coking deposits, leaving pistons, rings
and heads extremely clean with minimal pipe ‘spooge’.
2.
Filling your transmission with more than 8.0 oz (235 cc) of lubricant will help
to transfer heat from the clutch. Filling with more than 12 oz (295 cc) will
degrade performance.
3.
The cylinder base gasket has been ‘fitted’ for your engine. The code
number stamped into the engine cases will guide you to what thickness
base gasket is required during a common top end service. See the service
section of this manual to correspond a code number with a base gasket part
number.
4.
Evaluate the bikes jetting only after it has been warmed up to race
temperatures.
5.
New chains will stretch on first use. Never install a new chain prior to a
race. Always ‘break’ them in during practice.
6.
Your Cobra Motorcycle has a 10 digit VIN (Vehicle Identification Number).
The first three digits indicate the model while the sixth and seventh
indicates the model year.
a. Example, CP3xx17xxx is a 2017 CX50 P3.
7.
Because of the amount of heat generated by the clutch and engine during
extended periods of riding, it is advisable to remove the ignition cover
afterward to allow the ignition to cool off. The heat transfers through the
