12. Install:
Coolant reservoir cap
13. Start the engine and let it warm up for
several minutes.
14. Turn off the engine and inspect the cool-
ant level.
Refer to “COOLANT LEVEL INSPEC-
TION” section.
NOTE:
Before checking the coolant level wait a few
minutes until the coolant settles.

1. Start the engine and thoroughly warm it
up.
2. Adjust:
Idle speed
VALVE CLEARANCE ADJUSTMENT
NOTE:
The valve clearance should be adjusted
when the engine is cool to the touch.
The piston must be at Top Dead Center
(T.D.C.) on compression stroke to check or
adjust the valve clearance.
1. Remove:
Seat
Fuel tank
Refer to “SEAT, FUEL TANK AND SIDE
COVERS” section in the CHAPTER 4.
2. Remove:
Carburetor
Refer to “CARBURETOR” section in
the CHAPTER 4.
Spark plug
Engine stay (upper)
Cylinder head cover
Refer to “CAMSHAFTS” section in the
CHAPTER 4. Adjustment steps:
Adjust the pilot screw.
Refer to “PILOT SCREW ADJUSTMENT”
section.
Turn the throttle stop screw 1 until the
specified engine idling speed.
NOTE:
Using a digital engine tachometer for idle
speed adjustment, detect the engine idling
speed by bringing the sensing element c of
the engine tachometer close to the ignition
coil 2.
To increase idle speed →
Turn the throttle stop screw 1 in a.
To decrease idle speed →
Turn the throttle stop screw 1 out b.
Engine idling speed:

4. Check:
Valve clearance
Out of specification → Adjust.
Valve clearance (cold):
Intake valve:
0.10 ~ 0.15 mm
(0.0039 ~ 0.0059 in)
Exhaust valve:
0.20 ~ 0.25 mm
(0.0079 ~ 0.0098 in)
Checking steps:
Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise with
a wrench.
Align the T.D.C. mark a on the rotor with
the align mark b on the crankcase cover
when piston is at T.D.C. on compression
stroke.
NOTE:
In order to be sure that the piston is at Top
Dead Center, the punch mark c on the
exhaust camshaft and the punch mark d on
the intake camshaft must align with the cyl-
inder head surface, as shown in the illustra-
tion.
Measure the valve clearance e using a
feeler gauge 1.
NOTE:
Record the measured reading if the clear-
ance is incorrect.

5. Adjust:
Valve clearance
Adjustment steps:
Loosen the timing chain tensioner cap
bolt.
Remove the timing chain tensioner and
camshaft caps.
NOTE:
Remove the camshaft cap bolts in a criss-
cross pattern from the outside working
inwards.
Remove the camshaft (exhaust 1 and
intake 2).
NOTE:
Attach a wire 3 to the timing chain to pre-
vent it from falling into the crankcase.
Remove the valve lifters 4 and the pads 5.
NOTE:
Place a rag in the timing chain space to
prevent pads from falling into the crank-
case.
Identity each valve lifter and pad position
very carefully so that they can be rein-
stalled in their original place.
Select the proper pad using the pad
selecting table.

Pads can only be selected in 0.05 mm incre-
ments.
Locate the rounded-off value and the mea-
sured valve clearance in the chart “PAD
SELECTION TABLE”. The field where
these two coordinates intersect shows the
new pad number to use.
NOTE:
Use the new pad number only as a guide
when verifying the valve clearance adjust-
ment.
Install the new pads 6 and the valve lift-
ers 7.
NOTE:
Apply the engine oil on the valve lifters.
Apply the molybdenum disulfide oil on the
valve stem ends.
Valve lifter must turn smoothly when
rotated with a finger.
Be careful to reinstall valve lifters and
pads in their original place.
Install the camshafts (exhaust and intake),
the timing chain and the camshaft caps.
