Periodic inspection, adjustment and
lubrication will keep your motorcycle
in the safest and most efficient condi-
tion possible. Safety is an obligation
of the motorcycle owner. The mainte-
nance and lubrication schedule chart
should be considered strictly as a
guide to general maintenance and
lubrication intervals.
YOU MUST TAKE INTO CONSIDER-
ATION THAT WEATHER, TERRAIN,
GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATIONS, AND
A VARIETY OF INDIVIDUAL USES
ALL TEND TO DEMAND THAT
EACH OWNER ALTER THIS TIME
SCHEDULE TO SHORTER INTER-
VALS TO MATCH THE ENVIRON-
MENT. The most important points of
motorcycle inspection, adjustment,
and lubrication are explained in the
following pages.
