Maintenance and Adjustment
• Turn the outer cable adjuster to give
0.08 - 0.12 in (2 - 3 mm) of free play
at the clutch lever.
• Tighten the locknut.
• Use the lever adjuster to make
minor adjustments as necessary.
• Ensure all locknuts are secured at
both ends of the cable.
Drive Chain
For safety and to prevent excessive wear, the
drive chain must be checked, adjusted, and
lubricated in accordance with scheduled
maintenance requirements. Checking,
adjustment and lubrication must be carried
out more frequently for extreme conditions
such as dusty, wet, salty or heavily gritted
roads.
If the chain is badly worn or incorrectly
adjusted (either too loose or too tight) the
chain could jump off the sprockets or break.
Warning
A loose or worn chain, or a chain that
breaks or jumps off the sprockets could
catch on the engine sprocket or lock the
rear wheel.
A chain that catches on the engine
sprocket will injure the rider and lead to
loss of motorcycle control and an accident.
Similarly, locking the rear wheel will lead to
loss of motorcycle control and an accident.
