Safety is an obligation of the owner.
Periodic inspection, adjustment and
lubrication will keep your vehicle in the
safest and most efficient condition
possible. The most important points of
inspection, adjustment, and lubrica-
tion are explained on the following
pages.
The intervals given in the periodic

eral guide under normal riding condi-
tions. However, DEPENDING ON
THE WEATHER, TERRAIN, GEO-
GRAPHICAL LOCATION, AND INDI-
VIDUAL USE, THE MAINTENANCE
INTERVALS MAY NEED TO BE
SHORTENED.
