HOW TO READ DESCRIPTIONS
To help identify parts and clarify pro-
cedure steps, there are exploded dia-
grams at the start of each removal
and disassembly section.
1. An easy-to-see exploded diagram
"1" is provided for removal and
disassembly jobs.2. Numbers "2" are given in the or-
der of the jobs in the exploded di-
agram. A number that is enclosed
by a circle indicates a disassem-
bly step.
3. An explanation of jobs and notes
is presented in an easy-to-read
way by the use of symbol marks
"3". The meanings of the symbol
marks are given on the next page.4. A job instruction chart "4" accom-
panies the exploded diagram,
providing the order of jobs, names
of parts, notes in jobs, etc.
5. For jobs requiring more informa-
tion, the step-by-step format sup-
plements "5" are given in addition
to the exploded diagram and job
instruction chart.
ILLUSTRATED SYMBOLS (Refer to
the illustration)Illustrated symbols "1" to "7" are used
to identify the specifications appear-
ing in the text.
1. With engine mounted
2. Filling fluid
3. Lubricant
4. Special tool
5. Tightening
6. Specified value, Service limit
7. Resistance (Ω), Voltage (V),
Electric current (A)
Illustrated symbols "8" to "13" in the
exploded diagrams indicate grade of
lubricant and location of lubrication
point.
8. Apply engine oil
9. Apply molybdenum disulfide oil
10. Apply brake fluid
11. Apply lightweight lithium-soap
base grease
12. Apply molybdenum disulfide
grease
13. Apply silicone greaseIllustrated symbols "14" to "15" in the
exploded diagrams indicate where to
apply a locking agent and where to in-
stall new parts.
14. Apply locking agent (LOC-
TITE
®)
15. Use new one

CABLE ROUTING DIAGRAM
A. Insert the end of the fuel tank
breather hose into the hole in
the steering stem.
B. Fasten the throttle cable, hot
starter cable and rectifier/regula-
tor lead onto the frame. Locate
the clamp under the throttle ca-
ble on the right side of the frame,
and face its ends, as well as the
tie ends, downward.
C. Fasten the diode (at the mark-
ing), throttle cable and hot start-
er cable onto the frame. Locate
the clamp end facing toward the
lower right of the frame and with
the tie end facing downward.
D. Fasten the wire harness, throttle
position sensor lead, starter mo-
tor lead and negative battery
lead onto the frame. Pass the
clamp through the hole in the
stay (air cut-off valve). Locate
the clamp end facing toward the
lower side of the frame and cut
off the tie end.
E. Pass the carburetor breather
hoses, carburetor overflow hose
and catch tank breather hose
between the connecting rod and
cross tube (frame).
F. Fasten the neutral switch lead
and oil hose together with the
plastic locking ties and cut off
the tie ends.
G. Fasten the neutral switch lead
and AC magneto lead onto the
frame. Locate the clamp end
facing toward the outside of the
frame and tie end facing toward
the rear of the frame.
H. Pass the clutch cable through
the cable guide.
I. Fasten the starter motor lead,
AC magneto lead and neutral
switch lead onto the frame. Lo-
cate the clamp end facing to-
ward the rear of the frame and
cut off the tie end.
J. Fasten the clutch cable, starter
motor lead, negative battery
lead, AC magneto lead and neu-
tral switch lead onto the frame.
Locate the clamp end facing to-
ward the rear of the frame and
cut off the tie end.
K. Pass the neutral switch lead and
AC magneto lead on the inside
of the wire harness.
L. Fasten the clutch cable, AC
magneto lead and neutral switch
lead onto the frame. Locate the
clamp end near the clutch cable
and cut off the tie end.M. Pass the clutch cable and wire
harness through the cable
guide.
N. Locate the couplers in the frame
recess.
O. Pass the carburetor breather
hoses, carburetor overflow hose
and catch tank breather hose so
that the hoses do not contact the
rear shock absorber.
P. Secure the coupler by pushing it
into the hole in the headlight
unit.
Q. Fasten the throttle position sen-
sor lead and the hot starter ca-
ble.
R. Locate the clamp between the
hot starter cable protector and
rubber cap.
