Removal, Cleaning and Replacement
Your motorcycle has an endless (reveted master link)
type chain. It should only be removed or replaced by
your Honda dealer.
When the drive chain becomes dirty, it should be
removed and cleaned prior to lubrication.
1. Clean the side surfaces of the chain with a dry
cloth. Do not brush the rubber O-rings. Brushing
will damage them. Use of a solvent may also
damage the O-rings.
2. Inspect the drive chain for possible wear or
damage. Replace any chain that has damaged
rollers, loose fitting links, or otherwise appears
unserviceable.
Replacement chain:
D.I.D. 520VD
Never use petrol or low flash point solvents for
cleaning the drive chain. A fire or explosion could
result.
3. Inspect the sprocket teeth for possible wear or
damage. Replace if necessary.
4. Lubricate the drive chain.
Wheel Rims and Spokes
(Refer to the Safety Precautions on page 39.)
1. Inspect the wheel rims (1) and spokes (2) for
damage.
2. Tighten any loose spokes and rim locks (3).
3. Check wheel rim runout. If runout is noticeable,
see your Honda dealer for inspection.
Maintenance of spoke tension and wheel trueness
are critical to safe motorcycle operation. During the
first 150 km (100 miles), spokes will loosen more
rapidly due to initial seating of parts. Excessively
loose spokes may result in high speed instability and
possible loss of control.
