PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Before riding for break-in operation, practice or a race, make sure the machine is in good operating
condition.
Before using this machine, check the following points.
GENERAL INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Item Routine Page
CoolantCheck that coolant is filled up to the radiator filler cap.
Check that the coolant level is correct in the coolant reservoir
tank.
Check the cooling system for leakage.P.3-5 ~ 9
FuelCheck that a fresh gasoline is filled in the fuel tank. Check the
fuel line for leakage.P.1-14
Engine oilCheck that the oil level is correct. Check the crankcase and
frame oil line for leakage.P.3-14 ~ 18
Gear shifter and clutchCheck that gears can be shifted correctly in order and that the
clutch operates smoothly.P.3-10
Throttle grip/HousingCheck that the throttle grip operation and free play are correctly
adjusted. Lubricate the throttle grip and housing, if necessary.P.3-10 ~ 11
Brakes Check the play of front brake and effect of front and rear brake. P.3-26 ~ 32
ChainCheck chain slack and alignment. Check that the chain is lubri-
cated properly.P.3-33 ~ 36
WheelsCheck for excessive wear and tire pressure. Check for loose
spokes and have no excessive play.P.3-44 ~ 45
SteeringCheck that the handlebar can be turned smoothly and have no
excessive play.P.3-45 ~ 46
Front forks and rear shock
absorberCheck that they operate smoothly and there is no oil leakage. P.3-36 ~ 43
Cables (wires)Check that the clutch and throttle cables move smoothly. Check
that they are not caught when the handlebars are turned or
when the front forks travel up and down.—
Muffler Check that the muffler is tightly mounted and has no cracks.—
Sprocket Check that the driven sprocket tightening bolt is not loose. P.3-33
Lubrication Check for smooth operation. Lubricate if necessary. P.3-47
Bolts and nuts Check the chassis and engine for loose bolts and nuts. P.1-19
Lead connectorsCheck that the CDI magneto, CDI unit, and ignition coil are con-
nected tightly.P.1-6
SettingsIs the machine set suitably for the condition of the racing course
and weather or by taking into account the results of test runs
before racing? Are inspection and maintenance completely
done?P.7-1 ~ 22

ENGINE
COOLANT LEVEL INSPECTION
WARNING
Do not remove the radiator cap 1, drain
bolt and hoses when the engine and radia-
tor are hot. Scalding hot fluid and steam
may be blown out under pressure, which
could cause serious injury.
When the engine has cooled, place a thick
towel over the radiator cap, slowly rotate
the cap counterclockwise to the detent.
This procedure allows any residual pres-
sure to escape. When the hissing sound
has stopped, press down on the cap while
turning counterclockwise and remove it.
CAUTION:
Hard water or salt water is harmful to the
engine parts. You may use distilled water, if
you can’t get soft water.
1. Place the machine on a level place, and
hold it in an upright position.
2. Inspect:
Coolant level
Coolant level should be between the
maximum a and minimum b marks.
Coolant level is below the “LOW” level
line → Add soft water (tap water) up to
the proper level.
3. Start the engine and let it warm up for
several minutes.
4. Turn off the engine and check the coolant
level again.
NOTE:
Before checking the coolant level, wait a few
minutes until the coolant settles.
