CLEANING
Frequent cleaning of your machine will enhance
its appearance, maintain good overall perfor-
mance, and extend the life of many components.
1. Before washing the machine, block off the
end of the exhaust pipe to prevent water
from entering. A plastic bag secured with a
rubber band may be used for this purpose.
2. If the engine is excessively greasy, apply
some degreaser to it with a paint brush. Do
not apply degreaser to the chain, sprockets,
or wheel axles.
3. Rinse the dirt and degreaser off with a gar-
den hose; use only enough pressure to do
the job.
cC
Excessive hose pressure may cause water
seepage and contamination of wheel bear-
ings, front forks, brakes and transmission
seals. Many expensive repair bills have re-
sulted from improper high pressure deter-
gent applications such as those available
in coin-operated car washers.
4. After the majority of the dirt has been hosed
off, wash all surfaces with warm water and a
mild detergent. Use an old toothbrush to
clean hard-to-reach places.
5. Rinse the machine off immediately with
clean water, and dry all surfaces with a soft
towel or cloth.
6. Immediately after washing, remove excess
water from the chain with a paper towel and
lubricate the chain to prevent rust.
7. Clean the seat with a vinyl upholstery clean-
er to keep the cover pliable and glossy.
8. Automotive wax may be applied to all paint-
ed or chromed surfaces. Avoid combination
cleaner-waxes, as they may contain abra-
sives.
9. After completing the above, start the engine
and allow it to idle for several minutes.

REINIGEN
Häufiges Reinigen Ihrer Maschine
stellt gefälliges Aussehen und ausge-
zeichnetes Leistungsvermögen sicher
und bürgt für längere Lebensdauer
der Bauteile.
1. Vor dem Waschen der Maschine,
das Ende des Auspuffrohres ver-
schließen, um ein Eindringen von
Wasser zu vermeiden. Für diesen
Zweck kann ein Plastkbeutel mit
einem Gummiband verwendet
werden.
2. Falls der Motor stark verölt ist,
Entfettungsmittel mit einem Pinsel
auftragen. Das Entfettungsmittel
jedoch niemals auf Kette, Ketten-
räder oder Radachsen auftragen.
3. Schmutz und Entfettungsmittel mit
einem Wasserschlauch abspülen;
dabei übermäßigen Wasserdruck
vermeiden.
dD
Übermäßiger Wasserdruck kann das
Eindringen von Wasser und Verun-
reinigung der Radlager, Vorderradga-
bel, Bremsen und Getriebedichtun-
gen verursachen. Viele teure Repara-
turen sind die Folge von falscher
Anwendung von Hochdruckreini-
gungsmitteln, wie sie in Münzauto-
waschanlagen vorhanden sind.
4. Nachdem der grobe Schmutz
abgespült wurde, alle Flächen mit
warmem Wasser und mildem
Waschmittel abwaschen. Eine alte
Zahnbürste für schwer zugängli-
che Stellen verwenden.
5. Danach die Maschine sofort mit
Frischwasser abspülen und alle
Flächen mit einem weichen Lap-
pen trocknen.
6. Unmittelbar nach dem Waschen,
Wasser mit Hilfe von Papier-
handtüchern von der Kette entfer-
nen und die Kette schmieren, um
Rostbildung zu vermeiden.
7. Die Sitzbank mit für Vinyl geeigne-
tem Reinigungsmittel reinigen, um
die Polsterung im glänzenden
Zustand zu erhalten.
8. Alle lackierten und verchromten
Flächen dürfen mit Autowachs
behandelt werden. Niemals
jedoch Wachs mit Schleifkornrei-
niger verwenden, da sonst die
Lackflächen zerkratzt werden kön-
nen.
9. Nach Beendigung der obigen Rei-
nigung, den Motor starten und für
einige Minuten im Leerlauf betrei-
ben.
NETTOYAGE ET
RANGEMENT
NETTOYAGE
Un nettoyage fréquent de la machine
réhausserra son aspect, maintiendra ses
bonnes performances et augmentera la
durée de nombre de ses composants.
1. Avant de laver la moto, bouchez la
sortie du pot d’échappement pour
éviter l’introduction d’eau. Un
sachet plastique retenu par un élas-
tique fera l’affaire.
2. Si le moteur est fortement encras-
sé, appliquez un peu de dégrais-
sant au pinceau. Evitez tout
contact avec la chaîne, ses pignons
et les axes de roue.
3. Rincez la boue et le dégraissant
avec un tuyau d’arrosage, en utili-
sant juste la pression suffisante.
fF
Une pression excessive risque de pro-
voquer des infiltrations d’eau dans
les roulements des roues, la fourche
avant, des freins et les joints de la
transmission. Noter que bien des
notes de réparation onéreuses ont
résulté de l’emploi abusif des vapori-
sateurs de détergent à haute pression,
tels que ceux qui équipent les laveries
automatiques de voitures.
4. Après avoir chassé la majeure par-
tie de la boue, lavez toutes les sur-
faces avec de l’eau chaude et un
détergent neutre. Utilisez une
vieille brosse à dents pour
atteindre les endroits difficiles
d’accès.
5. Rincez immédiatement l’engin
avec de l’eau propre et séchez
toutes les surfaces avec un chiffon
doux.
6. Immédiatement après le lavage,
éliminez l’excès d’eau de la chaîne
avec des mouchoirs en papier et
lubrifiez la chaîne pour éviter
qu’elle ne rouille.
7. Nettoyez la selle avec un produit
pour meubles rembourrés pour que
sa housse reste souple et brillante.
8. Un encaustique pour automobile
peut être appliqué sur toutes les
surfaces peintes et chromées. Evi-
tez les liquiles de nettoyage à
encaustique, car ils contienment de
l’abrasif.
9. Les opérations ci-dessus termi-
nées, lancez le moteur et laissez-le
tourner pendant quelques minutes.

PULITURA
Una pulitura frequente del veicolo ne
migliorerà l’aspetto, manterrà buone
prestazioni generali e prolungherà la
durata di molti componenti.
1. Prima di lavare il veicolo, bloccare
l’estremità del tubo di scarico per
impedire che entri acqua. A questo
scopo si può usare un sacchetto di
plastica fissato con un elastico.
2. Se il motore è eccessivamente
grasso, applicarvi uno sgrassante
con un pennello. Non applicare
sgrassante sulla catena, sui roc-
chetti o sugli assi delle ruote.
3. Sciacquare via lo sporco e lo
sgrassante con una canna da giar-
dinaggio; usare soltanto la pressio-
ne necessaria a svolgere il lavoro.
iI
Una pressione eccessiva della canna
può provocare infiltrazioni d’acqua e
contaminazione dei cuscinetti delle
ruote, delle forcelle anteriori, dei
freni e dei dispositivi di tenuta della
trasmissione. Applicazioni di deter-
gente improprie ad alta pressione
come quelle disponibili negli autola-
vaggi a gettone hanno comportato
molte costose fatture di riparazione.
4. Dopo che la maggior parte dello
sporco è stata lavata via, lavare
tutte le superfici con acqua tiepida
e un detergente delicato. Usare un
vecchio spazzolino da denti per
pulire i punti difficili da raggiun-
gere.
5. Sciacquare immediatamente il vei-
colo con acqua pulita e asciugare
tutte le superfici con un asciuga-
mano o un panno morbido.
6. Immediatamente dopo il lavaggio,
togliere l’acqua in eccesso dalla
catena con un panno-carta e lubri-
ficare la catena per prevenire la
ruggine.
7. Pulire la sella con un pulitore per
rivestimenti in vinile per mantene-
re la copertura flessibile e lucida.
8. Su tutte le superfici verniciate o
cromate si può applicare cera per
autoveicoli. Evitare la combinazio-
ne pulitore-cere, poiché può conte-
nere abrasivi.
9. Dopo avere eseguito le operazioni
descritte più sopra, avviare il
motore e farlo girare al minimo

9It is generally said that the secondary gear ratio
should be reduced for a longer straight portion
of a speed course and should be increased for
a course with many corners. Actually, however,
as the speed depends on the ground condition
of the day of the race, be sure to run through
the circuit to set the machine suitable for the
entire course.
9In actuality, it is very difficult to achieve settings
suitable for the entire course and some settings
may be sacrificed. Thus, the settings should be
matched to the portion of the course that has
the greatest effect on the race result. In such a
case, run through the entire course while mak-
ing notes of lap times to find the best balance;
then, determine the secondary reduction ratio.
9If a course has a long straight portion where a
machine can run at maximum speed, the
machine is generally set such that it can devel-
op its maximum revolutions toward the end of
the straight line, with care taken to avoid the
engine over-revving.
NOTE:
Riding technique varies from rider to rider and
the performance of a machine also vary from
machine to machine. Therefore, do not imitate
other rider’s settings from the beginning but
choose your own setting according to the level of
your riding technique.
