PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Before riding for break-in operation, practice or a race, make sure the machine is in good operating condition.
Before using this machine, check the following points.
GENERAL INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Item Routine Page
CoolantCheck that coolant is filled up to the radiator cap.
Check the cooling system for leakage.P.3-21 ~ 29
FuelCheck that a fresh gasoline is filled in the fuel tank. Check the
fuel line for leakage.P.1-35
Engine oilCheck that the oil level is correct. Check the crankcase and
frame oil line for leakage.P.3-39 ~ 47
Gear shifter and clutchCheck that gears can be shifted correctly in order and that the
clutch operates smoothly.P.3-29 ~ 31
Throttle grip/HousingCheck that the throttle grip operation and free play are correctly
adjusted. Lubricate the throttle grip and housing, if necessary.P.3-31 ~ 33
Brakes Check the play of front brake and effect of front and rear brake. P.3-65 ~ 77
Drive chainCheck drive chain slack and alignment. Check that the drive
chain is lubricated properly.P.3-79 ~ 83
WheelsCheck for excessive wear and tire pressure. Check for loose
spokes and have no excessive play.P.3-99 ~ 101
SteeringCheck that the handlebar can be turned smoothly and have no
excessive play.P.3-101 ~ 103
Front forks and rear shock
absorberCheck that they operate smoothly and there is no oil leakage. P.3-85 ~ 97
Cables (wires)Check that the clutch and throttle cables move smoothly. Check
that they are not caught when the handlebars are turned or when
the front forks travel up and down.—
Exhaust pipeCheck that the exhaust pipe is tightly mounted and has no
cracks.P.4-7 ~ 11
Rear wheel sprocket Check that the rear wheel sprocket tightening bolt is not loose. P.3-77
Lubrication Check for smooth operation. Lubricate if necessary. P.3-105
Bolts and nuts Check the chassis and engine for loose bolts and nuts. P.1-45
Lead connectorsCheck that the AC magneto, CDI unit, and ignition coil are
connected tightly.P.1-9
SettingsIs the machine set suitably for the condition of the racing course
and weather or by taking into account the results of test runs
before racing? Are inspection and maintenance completely
done?P.7-1 ~ 42

EC36Q000TIRE PRESSURE CHECK
1. Measure:
Tire pressure
Out of specification
→ Adjust.
NOTE:Check the tire while it is cold.
Loose bead stoppers allow the tire
to slip off its position on the rim
when the tire pressure is low.
A tilted tire valve stem indicates
that the tire slips off its position on
the rim.
If the tire valve stem is found tilted,
the tire is considered to be slipping
off its position. Correct the tire
position.
Standard tire pressure:
100 kPa
(1.0 kgf/cm
2, 15 psi)
EC36S002SPOKES INSPECTION AND
TIGHTENING
1. Inspect:
Spokes
1
Bend/damage
→ Replace.
Loose spoke
→ Retighten.
2. Tighten:
Spokes
NOTE:Be sure to retighten these spokes
before and after break-in. After a
practice or a race check spokes for
looseness.
T R..3 Nm (0.3 m · kg, 2.2 ft · lb)
EC36T000WHEEL INSPECTION
1. Inspect:
Wheel runout
Elevate the wheel and turn it.
Abnormal runout
→ Replace.
CONTROLE DE LA PRESSION DES
PNEUS
1. Mesurer:
Pression des pneus
Hors spécifications → Ajuster.
N.B.:
Contrôler les pneus à froid.
Le pneu risque de se déjanter si le
gonflage est insuffisant.
Une tige de valve de pneu inclinée
indique que le pneu est mal assis.
Une tige de valve de pneu inclinée
indique que le pneu est mal assis. Cor-
riger la position du pneu.

CONTROLE ET SERRAGE DES
RAYONS
1. Contrôler:
Rayons 1
Déformation/endommagement →
Remplacer.
Rayon desserré → Resserrer.
2. Serrer:
Rayons
N.B.:
Ne pas oublier de resserrer les rayons
avant et après le rodage. Après un entraî-
nement ou une course, contrôler la ten-
sion des rayons.
T R..3 Nm (0,3 m · kg, 2,2 ft · lb)
CONTROLE DES ROUES
1. Contrôler:
Voile de roue
Surélever la roue et la faire tour-
ner.
Voile excessif → Remplacer.

EC721002Tire pressure
Tire pressure should be adjust to suit
the road surface condition of the cir-
cuit.
Under a rainy, muddy, sandy, or
slippery condition, the tire pressure
should be lower for a larger area of
contact with the road surface.
Under a stony or hard road condi-
tion, the tire pressure should be
higher to prevent a flat tire.
Standard tire pressure:
100 kPa
(1.0 kgf/cm
2, 15 psi)
Extent of adjustment:
60 ~ 80 kPa
(0.6 ~ 0.8 kgf/cm

Pression des pneus
Régler la pression des pneus en fonction
des conditions du terrain.
En cas de conduite sous la pluie, sur
terrain boueux, sablonneux ou glis-
sant, réduire la pression des pneus
pour une meilleure adhérence.
Sur route pavée ou sur surface dure,
augmenter la pression des pneus afin
d’éviter les crevaisons.
