TRANSMISSION CHAIN LUBRICATION
The chain consists of many parts that
operate together. If not properly
maintained, the chain wears quickly.
Therefore, it should be periodically
lubricated. This service is specially
necessary when riding through uneven
ground (dust, mud, stones, etc.).
The motorcycle has a transmission chain
equipped with small rubber O-rings between
its plates.
Steam and high pressure jet cleaning and
some solvents may damage the rings. For
cleaning the chain use kerosene only. Dry
and lubricate the chain using oil SAE
20W40. Do not use any other lubricant.
Other lubricants may contain solvents that
can damage the rings 1 .
Recommended lubricant:
SAE 20W40 or chain lubricants
appropriated for chains
equipped with rings.
