c. Remove the drive chain from the ker-
osine and completely dry it.
ACHTUNG:CAUTION:
This motorcycle has a drive chain with
small rubber O-rings 1 between the
drive chain side plates. Never use high-
pressure water or air, steam, gasoline,
certain solvents (e.g., benzine), or a
coarse brush to clean the drive chain.
High-pressure methods could force dirt
or water into the drive chain’s internals,
and solvents will deteriorate the O-
rings. A coarse brush can also damage
the O-rings. Therefore, use only kero-
sine to clean the drive chain.

SWITCHES
CHECKING SWITCH CONTINUITY
Check each switch for continuity with the
pocket tester. If the continuity reading is
incorrect, check the wiring connections and
if necessary, replace the switch.
CAUTION:

Never insert the tester probes into the cou-
pler terminal slots
1
. Always insert the
probes from the opposite end of the cou-
pler, taking care not to loosen or damage
the leads.
NOTE:

• Before checking for continuity, set the
pocket tester to “0” and to the “
W

´
1”
range.
• When checking for continuity, switch back
and forth between the switch positions a
few times.
The terminal connections for switches (e.g.,
main switch, engine stop switch) are shown
in an illustration similar to the one on the
left.
The switch positions
a
are shown in the far
left column and the switch lead colors
b
are shown in the top row in the switch illus-
tration.
NOTE:

“ ” indicates a continuity of electric-
ity between switch terminals (i.e., a closed
circuit at the respective switch position).
The example illustration on the left shows
that:
There is continuity between blue/red and
red when the switch is set to “ ”.
There is continuity between blue/red and
blue, between brown/blue and red, and
between blue/yellow and blue/black when
the switch is set to “ON”.

MEASURING THE IGNITION SPARK GAP
The following procedure applies to all of
the spark plugs.
• Disconnect the ignition coil from the spark
plug.
• Connect the ignition checker 1 as shown.
2 Ignition coil
• Set the main switch to “ON”.
• Measure the ignition spark gap a.
• Crank the engine by pushing the start
switch and gradually increase the spark
gap until a misfire occurs.
• Is there a spark and is the spark gap
within specification?
Yes ® Good.
No ® Measure the ignition coil resistance.
Minimum ignition spark gap
6 mm (0.24 in)
