Tips for reducing fuel
consumption
Your motorcycleÕs fuel consumption
depends to a large extent on your
riding style. The following tips can help
reduce fuel consumption:
lWarm up the engine before riding.
lTurn off the starter (choke) as
soon as possible.
lShift up swiftly and avoid high en-
gine speeds during acceleration.
lDo not double-clutch or rev the en-
gine while shifting down and avoid
high engine speeds with no load
on the engine.
lTurn off the engine instead of let-
ting it idle for an extended length
of time, i.e. in traffic jams, at traffic
lights or railroad crossings.
EAU00436
Engine break-in
There is never a more important period
in the life of your motorcycle than the
period between zero and 1,000 km. For
this reason we ask that you carefully
read the following material. Because
the engine is brand new, you must not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1,000 km. The various parts in the en-
gine wear and polish themselves to the
correct operating clearances. During
this period, prolonged full throttle oper-
ation, or any condition which might re-
sult in excessive heating of the engine,
must be avoided.
EAU00444
0 ~ 150 km
Avoid operation above 1/3 throttle.
Stop the engine and let it cool for 5 to
10 minutes after every hour of opera-
tion. Vary the speed of the motorcycle
from time to time. Do not operate it at
one set throttle position.
150 ~ 500 km
Avoid prolonged operation above
1/2 throttle. Rev the motorcycle freely
through the gears, but do not use full
throttle at any time.
500 ~ 1,000 km
Avoid cruising speeds in excess of
3/4 throttle.
EC000056
CAUTION:
After 1,000 km of operation, be sure
to replace the engine oil, oil filter
and final gear oil.

¥ When disassembling the master cylinder or caliper, always replace the brake fluid. Check the brake fluid level regularly
and fill as required.

Oil level inspection
1. Place the motorcycle on a level
place and hold it in an upright posi-
tion. Warm up the engine for sev-
eral minutes.
NOTE:
Be sure the motorcycle is positioned
straight up when checking the oil level.
A slight tilt toward the side can result in
false readings.2. With the engine stopped, check
the oil level through the level win-
dow located at the lower part of
the left side crankcase cover.
NOTE:
Wait a few minutes until the oil level
settles before checking.
3. The oil level should be between
the maximum and minimum
marks. If the level is low, fill the en-
gine with sufficient oil to the speci-
fied level.
