IMPORTANT INFORMATION
1-8
EAS2GBB022GASKETS, OIL SEALS AND O-RINGS
1. When overhauling the engine, replace all
gaskets and O-rings. All gasket surfaces, oil
seal lips, and O-rings must be cleaned so
that there may be no dust on them.
2. During assembly, always apply proper oil to
bearings and proper grease to oil seal lips
before installation.
EAS2GBB023LOCK WASHERS/PLATES AND COTTER
PINS
After removal, replace lock washers/plates “1”
and cotter pins with new ones. After the bolt or
nut has been tightened to specification, firmly
bend the lock tabs along a flat of the bolt or nut.
EAS2GBB024BEARINGS AND OIL SEALS
Install bearings “1” and oil seals “2” with their
manufacturer’s marks or size symbols facing
outward. During installation of an oil seal, make
sure that its main lip faces the oil chamber (the
target to be sealed). Before installation, always
apply a light coat of grease to the oil seal lip.
ECA
NOTICE
Do not spin the bearing with compressed air
because this will damage the bearing sur-
faces.
EAS2GBB025CIRCLIPS
When assembling parts, always use new cir-
clips. During installation of a circlip, make sure
that the edge “2” of the circlip “1” is positioned
opposite to the force “3” that the circlip re-
ceives. Install the circlip with its end aligned
with the center of the spline, without opening
the circlip more than necessary.
1. Oil
2. Lip
3. Spring
4. Grease

MULTI-FUNCTION DISPLAY

3. Push the “SLCT1” button (plus) or “SLCT2”
button (minus) and change the time. A long
push on the button will fast-forward the time.
4. To end the setting, push the “RST” button for
2 seconds or more.
TIP
• In a 30-second absence of button operation,
the setting will come to an end with the indi-
cated time.
• To reset the seconds, push the “SLCT1” but-
ton or “SLCT2” button.
Changing odometer and tripmeter A/B
(TRIP A/B)
TIP
• The odometer will lock at 99999.
• The tripmeter will reset and continue counting
after 999.9 is reached.
1. Push the “SLCT2” button to change the trip-
meter display. The display will change in the
following order:
OdometerTRIP ATRIP BTRIP A
Odometer.
TIP
To reset the digits, select the tripmeter involved
and push the “RST” button for 2 seconds or
more.
EAS2GBB045CHANGEOVER TO BASIC MODE/RACE
MODE
TIP
• Measurement using the timer function can be
made in RACE MODE.
• Indicator will light up as an identifier that
shows RACE MODE has been selected.
• RACE MODE cannot display the functions as
in BASIC MODE.
• Changeover to RACE MODE forces the digits
for tripmeter A (TRIP A) in BASIC MODE to be
reset.
Changeover from BASIC MODE to RACE
MODE
1. Push the “SLCT1” button and “SLCT2” but-
ton for 2 seconds or more at the same time
to change over to RACE MODE.
TIP
Changeover to RACE MODE will put manual
start measurement on standby causing and
to flash. (For manual start, refer to “Putting
measurement on standby” in “RACE MODE”.)

MAINTENANCE AFTER BREAK-IN

EAS2GBB055
MAINTENANCE AFTER BREAK-IN
After a break-in, perform careful maintenance
to get ready for the next practice or race.
Refer to “PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION
AND MAINTENANCE” on page 3-9.
EAS2GBB056MAJOR MAINTENANCE
1. For the engine
• Leaks around the engine
Check for pressure leaks from the cylinder
head or the cylinder, oil leaks from the
crankcase or the case cover, leaks from the
coolant system, and other leaks.
• Check that the valve, the cylinder head, the
cylinder, the piston, and the piston ring fit
one another, and that contact between the
valve and the cylinder head, and that be-
tween the cylinder and the piston are cor-
rect.
• Engine oil change
Drain the oil, and check for dirt and foreign
materials such as metal chips. (If any foreign
material is mixed, disassemble and check
the crankcase.)
Pour the specified amount of the recom-
mended oil.
• AC magneto
Check for looseness in mounted areas of
the rotor and the stator.
Check that the connector is not being dis-
connected.
• Silencer
Check the main body and stay for cracks.
Check for leaks.
• Mounting bolts and nuts
Check for looseness in mounted areas of
parts, as well as engine mounting bolts and
engine brackets.
2. For the chassis
• Check welds and mounted areas of the
frame, the swingarm, the link, the bracket,
and so on, for looseness and cracks.
• Wheel (s)
Check the wheel for runout. Check the
spoke for looseness.
• Brake(s)
Check the brake disc mounting bolt for
looseness.
Check that the reservoir contains the speci-
fied amount of brake fluid. Check for leaks.• Cable
Grease and adjust cables.
•Drive chain
Lubricate the drive chain and adjust its ten-
sion.
• Fuel tank
Clean the inside of the fuel tank. Check for
leaks.
• Suspension
Check for oil leaks in the front fork or the rear
shock absorber. Check that the mounted
conditions are good.
• Sprocket
Check for looseness in the sprocket mount-
ed on the rear wheel.
• Mounting bolts and nuts
Check mounted areas for looseness.
ECA
NOTICE
After a break-in or before each race, always
check the points shown in “TORQUE-
CHECK POINTS” for tightening torques and
retighten them. (Refer to “TORQUE-CHECK
POINTS” on page 1-34.)
• Greasing and oiling
Always grease or oil the specified points.
