SERVICE INFORMATION
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
• When disassembling the carburetor, be sure to service the vacuum piston and float chamber.
• Do not bend or twist control cables. Damaged control cables will not operate smoothly.
• When disassembling fuel system parts, note the locations of O-rings. Replace them with new
ones during assembly.
• Before float chamber disassembly, loosen the drain screw to drain the residual gasoline into a
clean container.
• After the carburetor is removed, plug the intake manifold side with a clean shop towel to prevent
foreign matters from entering.
• Remove the vacuum diaphragm before cleaning the carburetor air and fuel passages with
compressed air to avoid damaging the vacuum diaphragm.
• When the motorcycle is not used for over one month, drain the residual gasoline from the float
chamber to avoid erratic idling and clogged slow jet due to deteriorated fuel.
