Starting a warm engine
Follow the same procedure as for start-
ing a cold engine with the exception
that the starter (choke) is not required
when the engine is warm. Instead, start
the engine with the throttle slightly
open.
TIP

If the engine does not start after sever-
al kicks, try again with the throttle 1/4
to 1/2 open.
EAU39901
Shifting
This motorcycle has a 3-speed trans-
mission with a centrifugal, automatic
clutch. Shifting gears lets you control
the amount of engine power available
for starting off, accelerating, climbing
hills, etc.
The gear positions are shown in the il-
lustration.
TIP

To shift the transmission into the neu-
tral position, press the shift pedal down
repeatedly until it reaches the end of its
travel.
NOTICE

ECA15441

Even with the transmission in
the neutral position, do not
coast for long periods of time
with the engine off, and do not
tow the motorcycle for long dis-
tances. The transmission is
properly lubricated only when
the engine is running. Inade-
quate lubrication may damage
the transmission.

Always release the throttle grip
before changing gears to avoid
damaging the engine, transmis-
sion, and drive train, which are
not designed to withstand the
shock of shifting when the throt-
tle grip is open.
EAU39911
To start out and accelerate
1. Close the throttle.
2. Shift into first gear and release the
shift pedal.
NOTICE:
Always
close the throttle before shifting
gears, otherwise damage to the
engine and drive train may re-
sult.

NOTICE

ECA10452

In order to prevent clutch slip-
page (since the transmission oil
also lubricates the clutch), do
not mix any chemical additives.
Do not use oils with a diesel
specification of “CD” or oils of a
higher quality than specified. In
addition, do not use oils labeled
“ENERGY CONSERVING II” or
higher.

Make sure that no foreign mate-
rial enters the transmission.
5. Start the engine, and then let it idle
for several minutes while checking
the transmission for oil leakage. If
oil is leaking, immediately turn the
engine off and check for the cause.
EAU41162

quently if you are riding in unusually
