Maintenance
This motorcycle is equipped with a viscous type
air cleaner element which cannot be cleaned
with compressed air or otherwise without
degrading its performance.
If the filter becomes dirty, replace it with a new
one.
Service more frequently when riding in rain, at
full throttle, or after the motorcycle is washed
or overturned. Service if the deposit level can be
seen in the transparent section of the drain
tube.
If the drain tube overflows, the air filter may
become contaminated with engine oil causing
poor engine performance.

❙
Checking the Air Pressure
Visually inspect your tires and use an air
pressure gauge to measure the air pressure at
least once a month or any time you think the
tires look low. Always check air pressure when
your tires are cold.
❙
Inspecting for Damage
Inspect the tires for
cuts, slits, or cracks
that exposes fabric or
cords, or nails or
other foreign objects
embedded in the side
of the tire or the
tread. Also inspect
for the bumps or bulges in the side walls of the
tires.
