ENGINE OIL
Engine life depends on oil amount
and quality. Daily engine oil level
checks and periodic changes are
two of the most important mainte-
nance items to be performed.
Engine Oil Level Check
Follow the procedure below to
inspect the engine oil level.
1. Start the engine and allow it to
idle for three minutes.
2. Stop the engine and wait
approximately three minutes.
3. Hold the motorcycle vertically
and inspect the engine oil level
through the engine oil level
inspection window. The engine
oil level should be between the
“L” (low) and the “F” (full) lines.
NOTICE
Operating the motorcycle with
too little or too much oil can
damage the engine.
Place the motorcycle on level
ground. Check the oil level with
the engine oil inspection win-
dow before each use of the
vehicle. Be sure the engine oil
level is always above the “L”
(low) line and not higher than
the “F” (full) line.
