Transmission Oil
In order for the transmission and clutch to function
properly, maintain the transmission oil at the proper
level, and change the oil periodically.
WARNING
Vehicle operation with insufficient, deterio-
rated, or contaminated transmission oil will
cause accelerated wear and may result in en-
gine or transmission seizure, accident, and
injury. Check the oil level before each use
and change the oil and filter according to the
periodic maintenance chart.
Oil Level Inspection
•
Place the motorcycle perpendicular to the ground.
If the motorcycle has just been used, wait several
minutes for all the oil to settle. Check the transmis-
sion oil level through the oil level inspection win-
dow (oil level inspection window) on the lower right
side of the engine. The oil should come up to the
center of the oil level inspection window. If the oil
level is too high, remove the excess oil using a sy-
ringe or other suitable device. If the oil level is low,
add the correct amount of oil through the oil filler
opening. Use oil of the same type and brand as
those of the one that is already in the engine.
