EAU16811
Tips for re ducin g fuel con-
sumption
Fuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the follow-
ing tips to reduce fuel consumption:
 Shift up swiftly, and avoid high en-
gine speeds during acceleration.
 Do not rev the engine while shift-
ing down, and avoid high engine
speeds with no load on the en-
gine.
 Turn the engine off instead of let-
ting it idle for an extended length
of time (e.g., in traffic jams, at traf-
fic lights or at railroad crossings).
EAU16842
Engine 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.
EAU58991
0–1000 km (0–600 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 3900
r/min. NOTICE: After 1000 km (600
mi) of operation, the en gine oil an d
final gear oil must be chan ged , an d
the oil filter cartri dge or element re-
placed .
[ECA10333]
1000–1600 km (600–1000 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 4700
r/min.
1600 km (1000 mi) an d b eyon d
The vehicle can now be operated nor-
mally.
NOTICE

 Keep the en gine speed out of

TIP
 Air filter
• This model’s air filter is equipped with a disposable oil-coated paper ele- ment, which must not be cleaned with compressed air to avoid damaging
it.
• The air filter element needs to be replaced more frequently when riding in unusually wet or dusty areas.
 Hydraulic brake and clutch service
• Regularly check and, if necessary, correct the brake fluid and clutch fluid levels.
• Every two years replace the internal components of the brake master cyl- inders and calipers as well as clutch master and release cylinders, and
change the brake and clutch fluids.
• Replace the brake and clutch hoses every four years and if cracked or damaged.

Canister
This model is equipped with a canister
to prevent the discharging of fuel vapor
into the atmosphere. Before operating
this vehicle, make sure to check the
following:
 Check each hose connection.
 Check each hose and canister for
cracks or damage. Replace if
damaged.
 Make sure that the canister
breather hose is not blocked, and
if necessary, clean it.
 Make sure that the canister
breather hose is positioned out-
side of the cowling.
EAU49506
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 the center- stand. A slight tilt to the side can
result in a false reading.
2. Start the engine and warm it up for ten minutes until the engine oil has
reached a normal temperature of
60 °C (140 °F), and then turn the
engine 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.

4. If the engine oil is below the mini-
mum level mark, add sufficient oil
of the recommended type to raise
it to the correct level.
TIP
Check the O-ring for damage, and re-
place it if necessary.
To chan ge the en gine oil (with or
without oil filter cartri dge replace-
ment) 1. Place the vehicle on a level surfa- ce.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for several minutes, and then turn it
off.
3. Place an oil pan under the oil tank to collect the used oil.
4. Remove the engine oil filler cap, the drain bolt and its gasket to
drain the oil from the oil tank. 5. Place an oil pan under the engine
to collect the used oil.
6. Remove the engine oil drain bolt and its gasket to drain the oil from
the crankcase.
TIP
Skip steps 7–11 if the oil filter cartridge
is not being replaced.
7. Remove cowling C. (See page6-7.)
8. Remove the oil filter cartridge with an oil filter wrench.
