Carefully read page 40
(MAINTENANCE).
u Ride for a few kilometres until engine
reaches the operating temperature, then
stop the engine.
u Position the vehicle on the centre stand.
u Unscrew and extract the plug/dipstick

u Clean the part in contact with the oil with
a clean cloth.
u Tighten the plug/dipstick (1) completely,
screwing it into the filling hole (2).
u Withdraw the plug/dipstick again and
read the oil level on the dipstick itself:
u The level is correct if the oil reaches
approx. the dot mark on the dipstick.
u If necessary, provide for topping up.

(3) properly; make sure that any oil is
not coming out.
Periodically check for leaks at the
casing cover gasket.
Do not use the vehicle with insufficient
lubrication or with contaminated or
impure lubricants, since this would
