DETACHABLE SIDESTAND
This sidestand "1" is used to support
only the machine when standing or
transporting it.
• Never apply additional force to
the sidestand.
• Remove this sidestand before
starting out.
VALVE JOINT
This valve joint "1" prevents fuel from
flowing out and is installed to the fuel
tank breather hose.
In this installation, make sure the
arrow faces the fuel tank and also
downward.
SPARK PLUG WRENCH
This spark plug wrench "1" is used to
remove and install the spark plug.
NIPPLE WRENCH
This nipple wrench "1" is used to
tighten the spoke.HANDLEBAR PROTECTOR
Install the handlebar protector "1" so
that the mark "a" face forward.
FUEL TANK HOLDING CABLE
The fuel tank holding cable "1" is
used to support the fuel tank during
maintenance.
FUEL HOSE JOINT COVER
The fuel hose joint covers "1" are
used to prevent mud, dust, and other
foreign material from entering the fuel
pump when the fuel hose is discon-
nected.
COUPLER FOR CONNECTING
OPTIONAL PART
This coupler "1" is used for connec-
tion to an optional Power Tuner and
so on.
When no optional parts, etc. are
connected, connect the connec-
tion terminal to the original cou-
pler "2".
Before removing the coupler, thor-
oughly wipe off any mud or water
stuck to it.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
PREPARATION FOR REMOVAL
AND DISASSEMBLY
1. Remove all dirt, mud, dust, and
foreign material before removal
and disassembly.
• When washing the machine with
high pressured water, cover the
parts follows.
Air duct
Silencer exhaust port
Drain hole on the cylinder head
(right side)
Water pump housing hole at the
bottom
2. Use proper tools and cleaning
equipment. Refer to "SPECIAL
TOOLS" section.
3. When disassembling the ma-
chine, keep mated parts together.
They include gears, cylinders,
pistons, and other mated parts
that have been "mated" through
normal wear. Mated parts must
be reused as an assembly or re-
placed.
