PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT

Before installing a spark plug, the spark
plug gap should be measured with a wire
thickness gauge and, if necessary,
adjusted to specification.
Spark plug gap:
0.6-0.7 mm (0,024-0,028 in)
Clean the surface of the spark plug
gasket and its mating surface, and then
wipe off any grime from the spark plug
threads.
Tightening torque:
Spark plug:
18 Nm (1.8 m.kgf, 13 ft.lbf)
TIP
If a torque wrench is not available when
installing a spark plug, a good estimate
of the correct torque is 1/4-1/2 turn past
finger tight. However, the spark plug
should be tightened to the specified
torque as soon as possible.

Engine oil and oil filter
element
The engine oil level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the oil must
be changed and the oil filter element
cleaned at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart.
To check the engine oil level
1. Place the vehicle on a level
surface and hold it in an upright
position. A slight tilt to the side can
result in a false reading.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.
3. Wait a few minutes until the oil
settles, and then check the oil level
through the check window located
at the bottom-right side of the
crankcase.
1. Engine oil level check window
2. Maximum level mark
3. Minimum level mark
TIP
The engine oil should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
4. If the engine oil is below the
minimum level mark, add sufficient
oil of the recommended type to
raise it to the correct level.
To change the engine oil (with or
without oil filter element cleaning)
1. Place the vehicle on a level
surface.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.
3. Place an oil pan under the engine
to collect the used oil.
