MAINTENANCE

Note
An accurate indication of the level of oil
in the engine is only shown when the
engine is at normal operating
temperature, the motorcycle is upright
(not on the side stand) and when the
dipstick has been fully tightened.
Do not add oil through the dipstick hole
in the crankcase.
▼ Remove the dipstick.
▼ The oil level is indicated by lines on
the dipstick. When full, the indicated
oil level must be level with the upper
marking on the dipstick.
▼ If the oil level is below the lower
marking, remove the filler plug and
add oil a little at a time through the
filler plug hole in the clutch cover
until the correct level is reached.
▼ Once the correct level is reached,
install and tighten the filler plug.

Warning
Prolonged or repeated contact with
engine oil can lead to skin dryness,
irritation and dermatitis.
Used engine oil contains harmful
contamination that can lead to skin
cancer.
Always wear suitable protective
clothing and avoid skin contact with
used oil.
Warning
The oil may be hot to the touch.
Avoid contact with the hot oil by
wearing suitable protective clothing,
gloves, eye protection, etc.
Contact with hot oil may cause the
skin to be scalded or burned.
Warning
If the engine has recently been
running, the exhaust system will be
hot.
Before working on or near the
exhaust system, allow sufficient time
for the exhaust system to cool as
touching any part of a hot exhaust
system could cause burn injuries.
