PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Before riding for break-in operation, practice or a race, make sure the machine is in good operating
condition.
Before using this machine, check the following points.
EAS2GB7080GENERAL INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
TIP
Perform usual maintenance enough so that, in the race course, a confirmation of that and simple set-
ting adjustments may only be left, in order to get enough time to use effectively.ITEM inspect Page
CoolantCheck that coolant is filled up to the radiator cap.
Check the cooling system for leakage.3-10 – 12
FuelCheck that a fresh gasoline is filled in the fuel tank.
Check the fuel line for leakage.1-30
Engine oilCheck that the oil level is correct. Check the crank-
case and oil line for leakage.3-16 – 18
Gear shifter and clutchCheck that gears can be shifted correctly in order and
that the clutch operates smoothly.3-12 – 13
Throttle grip/HousingCheck that the throttle grip operation and free play
are correctly adjusted. Lubricate the throttle grip and
housing, if necessary.3-13 – 14
BrakesCheck the play of front brake and effect of front and
rear brake.3-24 – 30
Drive chainCheck drive chain slack and alignment. Check that
the drive chain is lubricated properly.3-30
5-69 – 70
WheelsCheck for excessive wear and tire pressure. Check
for loose spokes and have no excessive play.3-35 – 36
SteeringCheck that the handlebar can be turned smoothly and
have no excessive play.3-36 – 37
Front forks and rear
shock absorberCheck that they operate smoothly and there is no oil
leakage.3-31 – 35
Cables (wires)Check that the clutch and throttle cables move
smoothly. Check that they are not caught when the
handlebars are turned or when the front forks travel
up and down.—
Exhaust pipeCheck that the exhaust pipe is tightly mounted and
has no cracks.3-15 – 16
Rear wheel sprocketCheck that the rear wheel sprocket tightening bolt is
not loose.5-10 – 11
LubricationCheck for smooth operation. Lubricate if necessary. 3-13
3-37 – 38
Bolts and nutsCheck the chassis and engine for loose bolts and
nuts.1-34 – 35
Lead connectorsCheck that the AC magneto, ECU and ignition coil are
connected tightly.1-9 – 12
SettingsIs the machine set suitably for the condition of the rac-
ing course and weather or by taking into account the
results of test runs before racing? Are inspection and
maintenance completely done?4-1 – 8

ENGINE
3-18
8. Install:
• Oil filler cap
9. Check:
• Oil level
Refer to “CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL
LEVEL” on page 3-16.
10.Check:
• Engine oil pressure
▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼
a. Slightly loosen the oil pressure check bolt
“1”.
EWA
WARNING
When the engine is started with the check
bolt removed, oil will spout; therefore, al-
ways loosen it before the checkup.
Start the engine and keep it idling until oil
starts to seep from the oil pressure check
bolt.
EWA
WARNING
Always keep the engine idling speed during
the checkup without increasing the engine
speed.
ECA
NOTICE
If no engine oil seeps out after one minute,
immediately turn the engine off so it will not
seize.
b. If no engine oil seeps out, check the engine
oil for leaks, and the engine oil passage and
the oil pump for damage.
c. Check the oil pressure again.
d. Tighten the oil pressure check bolt.

EAS2GB7098ADJUSTING THE ENGINE IDLING SPEED
TIP
• Because the air pressure is lower at high alti-
tudes, the air-fuel mixture will become richer.
If the idling speed is low, turn the starter knob/
idle screw a few clicks counterclockwise to in-
crease the speed before the adjustment.
• Before adjusting the engine idling speed,
make sure that the air filter element is not
clogged, the engine compression is proper,
and the throttle grip free play is proper.
• Adjust the engine idling speed with the starter
knob/idle screw pushed in completely.
1. Start the engine, and warm this up until the
oil has reached the specified temperature.
2. Attach the pocket tester with temperature
probe “1” to the oil drain bolt.
3. Install:
• Digital tachometer
TIP
Get the high tension cord “1” of the ignition coil
pinched in the detector “a” of the digital tachom-
eter.

EAS2GB7340REMOVING THE FUEL TANK
1. Extract the fuel in the fuel tank through the
fuel tank cap with a pump.
2. Remove:
• Fuel hose coupler
EWA
WARNING
Cover the fuel hose connection with a cloth
when disconnecting it. This is because re-
sidual pressure in the fuel hose could cause
fuel to spurt out when the hose is removed.
ECA
NOTICE
Make sure that the fuel hose is disconnect-
ed by hand. Do not forcefully disconnect the
hose with tools.
TIP
• To disconnect the fuel hose from the fuel tank,
remove the fuel hose connector holder “a”,
and then slide the fuel hose connector cover.
• To remove the fuel hose from the fuel rail,
slide the fuel hose connector cover “1” on the
end of the hose in the direction of the arrow
shown, press the two buttons “2” on the sides
of the connector, and then remove the hose.
• Before removing the hose, place a few cloths
in the area under where it will be removed.
• To prevent sand, dust, and other foreign ma-
terials from entering the fuel pump, install the
included fuel hose joint cover 1 “3” and the
fuel hose joint cover 2 “4” onto the disconnect-
ed fuel hose and the fuel pump.3. Remove:
• Side cover (left/right)
• Seat
• Air scoop (left/right)
• Fuel tank
TIP
Do not set the fuel tank down on the installation
surface of the fuel pump. Be sure to lean the
fuel tank against a wall or the like.
