En gine break-in
There is never a more important period
in the life of your engine than the period
between 0 and 1600 km (1000 mi). For
this reason, you should read the fol-
lowing material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1600 km (1000 mi). The various parts in
the engine wear and polish themselves
to the correct operating clearances.
During this period, prolonged full-throt-
tle operation or any condition that
might result in engine overheating
must be avoided.
EAU17094
0–1000 km (0–600 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 7000
r/min. NOTICE: After 1000 km (600
mi) of operation, the en gine oil must
b e chan ged an d the oil filter car-
tri dge or element replace d.
[ECA10303]
1000–1600 km (600–1000 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 8400
r/min.
1600 km (1000 mi) an d b eyon d
The vehicle can now be operated nor-
mally.
NOTICE
ECA10311
z Keep the en gine spee d out of

Engine oil an d oil filter car-
tri dge
The engine oil level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the oil
must be changed and the oil filter car-
tridge replaced at the intervals speci-
fied in the periodic maintenance and
lubrication chart.
To check the en gine oil level
1. Place the vehicle on a level sur- face and hold it in an upright posi-
tion. A slight tilt to the side can
result in a false reading.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for several minutes, and then turn it
off.
3. Wait a few minutes until the oil set- tles, and then check the oil level
through the engine oil level check
window located at the bottom-
right side of the crankcase.
TIP
The engine oil should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
1. Engine oil filler cap
2. Engine oil level check window
3. Maximum level mark
4. Minimum level mark
