Drive Chain Cleaning and Lubricating
B947H10206017
Clean and lubricate drive chain
Every 1 000 km (600 miles)
Clean and lubricate the drive chain in the following
procedures:
1) Clean the drive chain with kerosine. If the drive chain
tends to rust quickly, the intervals must be
shortened.
CAUTION
!
Do not use trichloroethylene, gasoline or any
similar solvent.
These fluids have too great dissolving power
for this chain and they can damage the O-
rings. Use only kerosine to clean the drive
chain.
2) After cleaning and drying the chain, oil it with a
heavyweight motor oil.
CAUTION
!
• Do not use any oil sold commercially as
“drive chain oil”. Such oil can damage the
O-rings.
• The standard drive chain is a DID 50VAZ.
SUZUKI recommends to use this standard
drive chain as a replacement.
Brake System Inspection
B947H10206018
Inspect brake system
Initially at 1 000 km (600 miles, 2 months) and every
6 000 km (4 000 miles, 12 months) thereafter
Inspect brake hose and brake fluid
Every 6 000 km (4 000 miles, 12 months)
WARNING
!
• The brake system of this motorcycle is
filled with a glycol-based brake fluid. Do
not use or mix different types of fluid such
as silicone-based and petroleum-based
fluids. Do not use any brake fluid taken
from old, used or unsealed containers.
Never reuse brake fluid left over from the
last servicing or stored for a long period of
time.
• Brake fluid, if it leaks, will interfere with
safe running and immediately discolor
painted surfaces. Check the brake hoses
and hose joints for cracks and oil leakage
before riding.
Brake Fluid Level Check
1) Keep the motorcycle upright and place the
handlebars straight.
2) Check the brake fluid level by observing the lower
limit line “A” on the front and rear brake fluid
reservoirs. When the brake fluid level is below the
lower limit line “A”, replenish with brake fluid that
meets the following specification.
