Running the engine with insufficient oil
pressure may cause serious engine damage.
Reinstall the oil filler cap/dipstick. Check
for oil leaks.
Check the engine oil level each day before
riding the motorcycle.
The level must be maintained between the
upper ( ) and lower ( ) level marks on the
dipstick ( ).
After a few minutes, remove the oil filler
cap/dipstick, wipe it clean, and reinsert
the dipstick without screwing it in.
Remove the dipstick. The oil level should
be between the upper and lower marks
on the dipstick.
If required, add the specified oil (see
page
) up to the upper level mark. Do
not overfill.
Start the engine and let it idle for a few
minutes. Make sure the low oil pressure
indicator goes off. If the light remains on,
stop the engine immediately.
Stop the engine and put the motorcycle
on its side stand on level ground.
