ENGINE OIL
In order for the engine, transmission, and clutch to function properly,
maintain the engine oil at the correct level and change the oil and clean
the filter in accordance with the scheduled maintenance requirements.
OIL LEVEL INSPECTION
1. Start the engine and run at idle for five minutes.
2. Stop the engine and wait for an additional five minutes for the
engine oil to settle.
3. Examine the oil level through the oil level viewport. At the correct
level, oil should be visible in the oil level viewport at the midpoint
between the “H” (High) and “L” (Low) marks. If it is necessary to
top up the oil level, remove the oil filler cap, add the required oil as
appropriate until the level visible in the oil level viewport is correct.
NOTE: Do not overfill as this can result in damage to the engine.
If necessary, remove excess oil through the oil filler cap with a
syringe or other appropriate device.
NOTE: An accurate reading of the oil level is only possible when
the engine is at normal operating temperature and with the
motorcycle sitting perfectly level and not leaning on the side
stand. For this reason it is best to enlist the aid of a second person
to hold the bike level when checking the oil level.
WARNING: Motorcycle operation with insufficient, deteriorated,
or contaminated engine oil will cause accelerated engine wear and
may result in engine or transmission seizure. Seizure of the engine
or transmission may lead to loss of control and an accident.
Check the engine oil level before each ride and change the oil in
accordance with the the Periodic Maintenance Schedule.
