DRIVE CHAIN CLEANING AND
OILING
1. Remove dirt and dust from the
drive chain. Be careful not to dam-
age the seal ring.
2. Clean the drive chain with a
sealed drive chain cleaner, or
water and neutral detergent.
3. Use a soft brush to clean the drive
chain. Be careful not to damage
the seal ring even though using a
soft brush.
4. Wipe off water and neutral deter-
gent.
5. Lubricate with a motorcycle
sealed drive chain lubricant or
high viscosity oil (#80 – 90).
 WARNING
Improperly installing a replace-
ment chain, or using a joint-clip
type chain, can be hazardous. An
incompletely riveted master link,
or a joint-clip type master link,
may come apart and cause an
accident or severe engine dam-
age.
Do not use a joint-clip type chain.
Chain replacement requires a spe-
cial riveting tool and a high-qual-
ity, non-joint-clip type chain. Ask
an authorized Suzuki dealer or a
qualified mechanic to perform this
work.
NOTICE
Cleaning the drive chain improp-
erly can damage seal rings and
ruin the drive chain.
• Do not use a volatile solvent
such as paint thinner, kerosene
and gasoline.
• Do not use a high pressure
cleaner to clean the drive chain.
• Do not use a wire brush to clean
the drive chain.
