4. When transporting the machine in
another vehicle, be sure is kept upright
and that the fuel cock is turned to the
“OFF”. If it should lean over, gasoline
may leak out of the carburetor or fuel
tank.
5. Never start your engine or let it run for
any length of time in a closed area. The
exhaust fumes are poisonous and may
cause loss of consciousness and death
within a short time. Always operate your
machine in an area with adequate venti-
lation.
6. Always wear a helmet, gloves, boots,
trousers, and jacket for motocross riding.

STARTING AND OPERATION
STARTING AND OPERATION
CAUTION:
Prior to operating the machine, perform
steps listed in pre-operation check list.
WARNING
Never start your engine or let it run for any
length of time in a closed area. The exhaust
fumes are poisonous and can cause loss of
consciousness and death within a short
time. Always operate your machine in an
area with adequate ventilation.
STARTING A COLD ENGINE
WARNING
Before starting the engine, be sure to shift
the transmission into neutral.
1. Turn the fuel cock to “ON”.
2. Operate the starter (choke) and com-
pletely close the throttle grip.
3. Slide the “ENGINE STOP” switch to the
“”.
4. Kick the kick starter with full strength to
start the engine.
5. After the engine starts, warm up for one
or two minutes. Make sure the stater
(choke) is returned to the original position
before riding.
STARTING A WARM ENGINE
To start a warm engine, refer to the “Starting a
cold engine” section. The starter (choke)
should not be used. The throttle should be
opened slightly.
CAUTION:
See “Break-in Section” prior to operating
engine for the first time.WARMING UP
To get maximum engine life, always “warm-up”
the engine before starting off. Never acceler-
ate hard with a cold engine! To see whether or
not the engine is warm, see if it responds to
throttle normally with the stater (choke) turned
off.
WARNING
Before starting off, be sure to turn up or
remove the side stand.
Failure to retract the side stand completely
can result in a serious accident when you
try to turn a corner.
ENGINE BREAK-IN
1. Prior to starting, fill fuel tank with gasoline
and oil tank with specified oil.
2. Allow engine to warm up. Check engine
idling speed. Check operating controls
and engine stop switch operation.
3. Operate machine in lower gears at mod-
erate throttle setting for 3 ~ 5 minutes.
Check spark plug condition.
4. Allow engine to cool. Repeat procedure,
running for 5 minutes. Very briefly, shift to
higher gears and check full throttle
response. Check spark plug condition.
5. Allow engine to cool. Repeat procedure,
running for 5 minutes. Full throttle and
higher gears may be used, but avoid sus-
tained full throttle operation. Check spark
plug condition.
6. Allow engine to cool. Remove top end and
inspect. Remove “high” spots on piston
with No.600 grit, wet sandpaper.
Clean, and carefully reassemble.
7. Check entire unit for loose or misadjusted
fittings/controls/fasteners.
8. Re-start engine and check through entire
operating range thoroughly. Stop. Check
spark plug condition. Re-start. After 10 ~
15 minutes operation, machine is ready
to ride.
CAUTION:
After the break-in period, check every fit-
ting and fastener for looseness.
If any loose is found, retighten it securely.

GENERAL TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS
This chart specifies torque for standard fasten-
ers with standard I.S.O. pitch threads. Torque
specifications for special components or
assemblies are included in the applicable sec-
tions of this book. To avoid warpage, tighten
multi-fastener assemblies in a crisscross fash-
ion, in progressive stages, until full torque is
reached. Unless otherwise specified, torque
specifications call for clean, dry threads. Com-
ponents should be at room temperature.
