Service more frequently when riding in rain, at
full throttle, or after the motorcycle is washed or
overturned. Service if the deposit level can be
seen in the transparent section of the drain tube.
If the drain tube overflows, the air filter may
become contaminated with engine oil causing
poor engine performance.

Checking the Air Pressure
Visually inspect your tyres and use an air
pressure gauge to measure the air pressure
before each off-road ride and whenever you
return to pavement after riding off-road.
If you only ride on pavement, check the
pressure at least once a month or any time you
think the tyres look low. Always check air
pressure when your tyres are cold.
If you decide to adjust the tyre pressure for a
particular off-road riding condition, make
changes a little at a time.

Inspecting for Damage
Inspect the tyres for
cuts, slits, or cracks
that exposes fabric or
cords, or nails or
other foreign objects
embedded in the side
of the tyre or the
tread. Also inspect for
any unusual bumps or bulges in the side walls
of the tyres.
NOTICE
Using coolant not specified for aluminium engines or tap/
mineral water can cause corrosion.
