Fuel cockThe fuel cock supplies fuel from the
tank to the carburetor while filtering it
also.
The fuel cock has two positions:
OFF
With the lever in this position, fuel will
not flow. Always return the lever to this
position when the engine is not run-
ning. ON
With the lever in this position, fuel flows
to the carburetor. Normal riding is done
with the lever in this position.

3. Operate the motorcycle in the lower gears at moderate throttle
openings for 5 to 8 minutes. Stop
the engine and check the spark
plug condition (see page 7-7); it
will show a rich condition during
