Hand decompression lever
The hand decompression lever

is only used in two special cases:
a) When the engine stalled.
It is possible that the starter motor is not able to crank the engine on the
next attempt. This is due to the fact that the automatic decompressor
doesn’t work properly. If this happens, pull the manual decompression
lever and start again. Afterwards normal starting will be possible.
b) When you want to push the motorcycle.
While pushing, pull the hand decompression lever to make it easier to
get the engine going.

HE SETTING OF THE HAND DECOMPRESSION CABLE SHOULD BE REGULARLY CHECKED
(
SEE MAINTENANCE WORK
). A
LACK OF PLAY IN THE HAND DECOMPRESSION LEVER CAN
