Transmission oil
The transmission oil level should be
checked before each ride. In addition,
the transmission oil must be changed
at the intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart.
To check the transmission oil level
1. Place the vehicle on a level sur-
face and hold it in an upright posi-
tion.
TIP
Make sure that the vehicle is positionedstraight up when checking the oil level.
A slight tilt to the side can result in a
false reading.
2. Wait a few minutes until the oil set-
tles, remove the oil filler cap, wipe
the dipstick clean, insert it back
into the oil filler hole (without
screwing it in), and then remove it
again to check the oil level.
TIP
The transmission oil should be be-
tween the minimum and maximum lev-
el marks.
3. If the oil is below the minimum lev-
el mark, add sufficient oil of the
recommended type to raise it to
the correct level.
4. Insert the dipstick into the oil filler
hole, and then tighten the oil filler
cap.
To change the transmission oil
1. Place an oil pan under the trans-
mission to collect the used oil.
2. Remove the oil filler cap and drain
bolt to drain the oil from the trans-
mission.
3. Install the transmission oil drain
bolt, and then tighten it to the spec-
ified torque.
4. Refill with the specified amount of
the recommended transmission
oil, and then install and tighten the
oil filler cap.
