TRANSMISSION OIL CHECK
Inspect the transmission oil level at the interval listed in the Maintenance Checklists. If the bike has just been run,
allow it to cool down, then check the transmission oil. When checking the transmission oil level, do not allow any dirt
or foreign matter to enter the case opening.
1. Park the bike on a level surface and support it so that it is standing straight up. Do not support it with the
kickstand.
2. Wipe the area around the transmission filler cap. Unscrew and remove the transmission filler cap and O-ring.
3. Wipe the dipstick off and reinsert dipstick back into transmission housing and rotate one complete turn, then
withdraw it and check level. The oil level should be in the "F" (Full) portion of the dipstick. If the oil level is in
the "A" (add) portion of the dipstick, add the necessary amount.
4. If the oil level is low, add the recommended type of oil listed in the Specification Sheet. Do not overfill.
5. Inspect the O-ring on the filler cap. Replace if worn or damaged.
6. Install the O-ring and the oil filler cap.
7. Wipe off any spilled oil from the transmission case.
TRANSMISSION OIL CHANGE
Change the transmission oil at the intervals specified in the Maintenance Checklists. You will need the following to
change the transmission oil:
•
Drain pan
•
Funnel
•
Box-end or Allen wrench for drain plug
•
Gear oil
1. Ride the motorcycle until the transmission oil reaches normal operating temperature. Usually 10-15 minutes
of stop and go riding is sufficient.
2. Shut the engine off.
NOTE: THERE ARE 2 IMPORTANT REASONS FOR DRAINING THE TRANSMISSION OIL WHILE IT IS HOT.
FIRST, HOT OIL WILL DRAIN MORE QUICKLY AND COMPLETELY. SECOND, THE CONTAMINANTS IN THE OIL
WILL DRAIN WITH IT, INSTEAD OF SETTLING IN THE BOTTOM OF THE TRANSMISSION CASE, READY TO MIX
WITH THE NEW OIL.
3. Park the bike on a level surface and support it so that it is standing straight up. Do not support it with the
kickstand.
4. Wipe the area around the filler cap clean and unscrew the filler cap and Q-ring.
5. Place the drain pan underneath the transmission drain plug.
6. Remove the drain plug from the transmission located underneath the transmission side cover Allow the oil to
drain for 10 minutes.
WARNING
DO NOT ALLOW THE OIL TO SPILL ONTO THE GROUND WHERE THE REAR TIRE MAY CONTACT IT
LATER. WIPE UP ALL OIL SPILLS IMMEDIATELY.
7. If your drain plug is magnetic, check the plug for metal debris that may indicate transmission wear, and then
wipe the plug off. Replace the plug if the head and/or threads are damaged. Carefully screw the drain plug
back into the transmission case, paying close attention to the threads on the drain plug.
8. Refill the transmission through the side cover hole with the recommended quantity and type of transmission
oil.
9. Install the filler cap and o-ring and tighten securely.
