*1.
The JASO T 903 standard is an index for engine
oils for 4-stroke motorcycle engines. There are
two classes: MA and MB. For example, the
following label shows the MA classification.
*2.
The SAE standard grades oils by their viscosity.
*3.
The API classification specifies the quality and
performance rating of engine oils. Use SG or
higher oils, excluding oils marked as “Energy
Conserving” or “Resource Conserving” on the
circular API service symbol.
The drive chain must be inspected and
lubricated regularly. Inspect the chain more
frequently if you often ride on bad roads, ride at
high speed, or ride with repeated fast
acceleration.

If the chain does not move smoothly, makes
strange noises, has damaged rollers, has loose
pins, or kinks, have the chain inspected by your
dealer.
Also inspect the front sprocket and rear wheel
sprocket. If either has worn or damaged teeth,
have the sprocket replaced by your dealer.
