Engine oilOil level inspection
1. Place the motorcycle on the cen-
terstand. Warm up the engine for
several minutes.NOTE:@ Be sure the motorcycle is positioned
straight up when checking the oil level.
A slight tilt toward the side can result in
false readings. @
2. With the engine stopped, check
the oil level through the level win-
dow located at the lower part of
the right side crankcase cover.NOTE:@ Wait a few minutes until the oil level
settles before checking. @3. The oil level should be between
the maximum level and minimum
level marks. If the level is low, fill
the engine with sufficient oil to
raise it to the specified level.Engine oil replacement and oil filter
element cleaning
1. Warm up the engine for a few min-
utes.
2. Stop the engine. Place an oil pan
under the engine and remove the
oil filler cap.
3. Remove the drain bolt and drain
the oil.

for panel removal and installation
procedures.)
2. Remove the air filter case fitting
screws and the air filter case cov-
er.
3. Remove the air filter from its case
and clean it with solvent. After
cleaning, remove the remaining
solvent by squeezing the air filter.4. Apply the recommended oil to the
entire surface of the filter and
squeeze out the excess oil. It
should be wet but not dripping.
5. Install the air filter in its case.
6. Install panel A.
EC000085
CAUTION:@ l
Make sure the air filter is prop-

CAUTION:Be sure to use motor oils that do not contain anti-friction
modifiers. Passenger car motor oils (often labeled
“Energy Conserving”) contain anti-friction additives which
will cause clutch and/or starter clutch slippage, resulting in
reduced component life and poor engine performance.
