Chain Lubrication
Lubrication is necessary every 200 miles
(300 km) and also after riding in wet
weather, on wet roads, or any time that
the chain appears dry.
Use the special chain lubricant as
recommended in the Specifications
section.
Apply lubricant to the sides of the rollers
then allow the motorcycle to stand
unused for at least eight hours
(overnight is ideal). This will allow the oil
to penetrate to the chain O-rings etc.
Before riding, wipe off any excess oil.
If the chain is especially dirty, clean first
and then apply oil as mentioned above.
Chain Free-Movement Inspection
1.
Maximum movement position
Place the motorcycle on a level surface
and hold it in an upright position with no
weight on it.
Rotate the rear wheel by pushing the
motorcycle to find the position where
the chain is tightest, and measure the
vertical movement of the chain midway
between the sprockets.
Chain Free-Movement Adjustment
The vertical movement of the drive chain
must be in the range 0.70 - 1.18 in (20 -
30 mm).
1.

2.

Caution
Do not use a pressure washer to clean
the chain as this may cause damage
to the chain components.
