6. Install:•Battery
• Battery band
7. Connect:
• Battery leads(to the battery terminals)
First, connect the positive lead "1",
then the negative lead "2".
8. Check:• Battery terminals
Dirt →Clean with a wire brush.
Loose connection →Connect
properly.
9. Lubricate: • Battery terminal
10. Install: • Seat
CHECKING THE FUSE
To avoid a short circuit, always set
the main switch to "OFF" when
checking or replacing a fuse.
1. Remove: • Seat
• Fuse cover
2. Check:
• Continuity
Checking steps:
a. Remove the fuse "1".
b. Connect the pocket tester to the fuse and check the continuity.
Set the pocket tester selector to " Ω×
1".
2. Reserve fuse
c. If the pocket test er indicates "∞",
replace the fuse.
3. Replace: • Blown fuse
Replacement steps:
a. Set the main switch to "OFF".
b. Install a new fuse of the correct amperage.
c. Set on the switches to verify if the electrical circuit is operational.
d. If the fuse immediately blows again, check the electrical circuit.
Never use a fuse with an amperage
rating other than th at specified. Im-
provising or using a fuse with the
wrong amperage rating may cause
extensive damage to the electrical
system, cause the starting and ig-
nition systems to malfunction and
could possibly cause a fire.

REPLACING THE HEADLIGHT
BULBS
1. Remove: • HeadlightRefer to "REMOVING THE SEAT,
FUEL TANK AND SIDE COV-
ERS" section.
2. Remove:
• Headlight bulb holder cover "1" 3. Remove:
• Headlight bulb holder "1"
Remove the headlight bulb holder by
pushing it in and turning it counter-
clockwise.
4. Remove:• Headlight bulb
Since the headlight bulb gets ex-
tremely hot, keep flammable prod-
ucts and your hands away from the
bulb unit it has cooled down.
5. Install:• Headlight bulb
Avoid touching the glass part of
the headlight bulb to keep it free
form oil, otherwis e the transparen-
cy of the glass, the life of the bulb
and the luminous flux will be ad-
versely affected. If the headlight
bulb gets soiled, thoroughly clean
it with a cloth moistened with alco-
hol or lacquer thinner.
6. Install: • Headlight bulb holder

IGNITION SYSTEM
INSPECTION STEPS
Use the following steps for checking the possibility of the malfunctioning engine being attributable to ignition system failure
and for checking the spark plug which will not spark.
*1 marked: Refer to "CHECKING TH E FUSE" section in the CHAPTER 3.
*2 marked: Refer to "CHECKING AND CHARGIN G THE BATTERY" section in the CHAPTER 3.
*3 marked: Only when the ignition checker is used.
• Remove the following parts before inspection.
1. Seat
2. Fuel tank
• Use the following special tools in this inspection.
*1 Check fuse. No good→Replace fuse and check wire harness.
OK ↓
*2 Check battery. No good→Recharge or replace.

• Spark plug terminal pin "b"
• Threaded portion of spark plug "c"Wear →Replace.
CHECKING THE AC MAGNETO
1. Inspect: • Pickup coil resistanceOut of specification →Replace. CHECKING THE NEUTRAL
SWITCH
1. Inspect:
• Neutral switch conduction
Not conductive while it is in neutral →
Replace.
Conductive while it is engaged →Re-
place.Set the tester selection position to " Ω
× 1".
CHECKING THE CDI UNIT
Check all electrical components. If no
fault is found, replace the CDI unit.
Then check the electrical compo-
nents again.
ELECTRIC STARTING
SYSTEM
STARTING CIRCUIT CUT-OFF
SYSTEM OPERATION
If the main switch is set to "ON", the
starter motor can only operate if at
least one of the following conditions is
met:
• The transmission is in neutral (the neutral switch is closed).
• The clutch lever is pulled to the han- dlebar (the clutch switch is closed).
The starting circuit cut-off relay pre-
vents the starter motor from operating
when neither of these conditions has
been met. In this instance, the start-
ing circuit cut-off relay is open so cur-
rent cannot reach the starter motor.
When at least one of the above con-
ditions has been met the starting cir-
cuit cut-off relay is closed and the
engine can be started by pressing the
start switch.
