ENGINE
COOLANT LEVEL INSPECTION
WARNING
Do not remove the radiator cap
1, drain
bolt and hoses when the engine and radia-
tor are hot. Scalding hot fluid and steam
may be blown out under pressure, which
could cause serious injury.
When the engine has cooled, place a thick
towel over the radiator cap, slowly rotate
the cap counterclockwise to the detent.
This procedure allows any residual pres-
sure to escape. When the hissing sound
has stopped, press down on the cap while
turning counterclockwise and remove it.
CAUTION:
Hard water or salt water is harmful to the
engine parts. You may use distilled water, if
you can’t get soft water.
1. Place the machine on a level place, and
hold it in an upright position.
2. Inspect:
Coolant level
Coolant level should be between the
maximum a and minimum b marks.
Coolant level is below the “LOW” level
line → Add soft water (tap water) up to
the proper level.
3. Start the engine and let it warm up for sev-
eral minutes.
4. Turn off the engine and check the coolant
level again.
NOTE:
Before checking the coolant level, wait a few
minutes until the coolant settles.

VALVE CLEARANCE ADJUSTMENT
VALVE CLEARANCE ADJUSTMENT
NOTE:
The valve clearance should be adjusted
when the engine is cool to the touch.
The piston must be at Top Dead Center
(T.D.C.) on compression stroke to check or
adjust the valve clearance.
1. Remove:
Seat
Fuel tank
Refer to “SEAT, FUEL TANK AND SIDE
COVERS” section in the CHAPTER 4.
2. Remove:
Carburetor
Refer to “CARBURETOR” section in the
CHAPTER 4.
Spark plug
Engine stay (upper)
Cylinder head cover
Refer to “CAMSHAFTS” section in the
CHAPTER 4.
3. Remove:
Timing plug 1
Straight plug 2

4. Check:
Valve clearance
Out of specification → Adjust.
Valve clearance (cold):
Intake valve:
0.10 ~ 0.15 mm
(0.0039 ~ 0.0059 in)
Exhaust valve:
0.20 ~ 0.25 mm
(0.0079 ~ 0.0098 in)
Checking steps:
Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise with
a wrench.
Align the T.D.C. mark a on the rotor with
the align mark b on the crankcase cover
when piston is at T.D.C. on compression
stroke.

6. Install:
All removed parts
NOTE:
Install all removed parts in reversed order of
their removal.Locate the rounded-off value and the mea-
sured valve clearance in the chart “PAD
SELECTION TABLE”. The field where
these two coordinates intersect shows the
new pad number to use.
NOTE:
Use the new pad number only as a guide
when verifying the valve clearance adjust-
ment.
Install the new pads 6 and the valve lift-
ers 7.
NOTE:
Apply the engine oil on the valve lifters.
Apply the molybdenum disulfide oil on the
valve stem ends.
Valve lifter must turn smoothly when
rotated with a finger.
Be careful to reinstall valve lifters and
pads in their original place.
Install the camshafts (exhaust and intake),
the timing chain and the camshaft caps.
Refer to “CAMSHAFTS” section in the
CHAPTER 4.

Bolt (camshaft cap):
10 Nm (1.0 m  kg, 7.2 ft  lb)
Install the timing chain tensioner.
Refer to “CAMSHAFTS” section in the
CHAPTER 4.
NOTE:
Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise sev-
eral turns so that the installed parts settle
into the right position.
Recheck the valve clearance.
If the clearance is still incorrect, repeat all
the clearance adjustment steps until the
specified clearance is obtained.

DRIVE CHAIN SLACK ADJUSTMENT
DRIVE CHAIN SLACK ADJUSTMENT
1. Elevate the rear wheel by placing the suit-
able stand under the engine.
2. Check:
Drive chain slack a
Above the seal guard installation bolt.
Out of specification → Adjust.
NOTE:
Before checking and/or adjusting, rotate the
rear wheel through several revolutions and
check the slack several times to find the tight-
est point. Check and/or adjust the chain slack
with the rear wheel in this “tight chain” position.
Drive chain slack:
48 ~ 58 mm (1.9 ~ 2.3 in)
3. Adjust:
Drive chain slack
Drive chain slack adjustment steps:
Loosen the axle nut 1 and locknuts 2.
Adjust the chain slack by turning the
adjusters 3.
To tighten
→Turn the adjuster
3 coun-
terclockwise.
To loosen
→Turn the adjuster
3 clock-
wise and push wheel for-
ward.
Turn each adjuster exactly the same
amount to maintain correct axle alignment.
(There are marks a on each side of the
chain puller alignment.)
NOTE:
Turn the adjuster so that the chain is in line
with the sprocket, as viewed from the rear.
CAUTION:
Too small chain slack will overload the
engine and other vital parts; keep the
slack within the specified limits.

HANDLING NOTE
WARNING
Do not remove the radiator cap when the
engine and radiator are hot. Scalding hot
fluid and steam may be blown out under
pressure, which could cause serious
injury.
When the engine has cooled, open the radi-
ator cap by the following procedure:
Place a thick rag, like a towel, over the radi-
ator cap, slowly rotate the cap counter-
clockwise to the detent. This procedure
allows any residual pressure to escape.
When the hissing sound has stopped,
press down on the cap while turning coun-
terclockwise and remove it.
