ADJUSTING THE VALVE CLEARANCE
The following procedure applies to all of the
valves.
Valve clearance adjustment should be made
on a cold engine, at room temperature.
When the valve clearance is to be measured or
adjusted, the piston must be at top dead center
(TDC) on the compression stroke.

REPLACING THE AIR FILTER ELEMENT /
CHECKING THE FUEL AND BREATHER HOSESCHK
ADJ
CAUTION:
NOTE:
NOTE: 4. Install:
air filter case cover
Never operate the engine without the air fil-
ter element installed. Unfiltered air will
cause rapid wear of engine parts and may
damage the engine. Operating the engine
without the air filter element will also affect
the throttle bodies tuning, leading to poor
engine performance and possible overheat-
ing.
When installing the air filter element into the air
filter case cover, make sure their sealing sur-
faces are aligned to prevent any air leaks.
5. Install:
fuel tank
Refer to “FUEL TANK”.
rider seat
Refer to “SEATS”.
