Running In
If you treat your
engine with prompt and adequate care from the very star, it will reward you
with excellent service as well as performance for a very long period of time. A
suitable running in period can extend the life of your motorcycle. Please read
the following chart.
0km-500km speed≤35km/h
|
500km-2,000km
speed≤45km/h
|
Varying Speed
During the running
in period, you should avoid riding at a constant speed for an extended period.
For the first 2,000 km, you should therefore ride at varying road and engine
speeds, varying the speed will allow the engine to work at different loads thus
until zing its range and capacity. This will extend the life of the engine.
NOTE
* Avoid low speed
riding for an extended period.
* Any increase or
decrease in speed should be done gradually.
* Avoid placing a
heavy load on the engine (right at full throttle) and riding at high revs.
Allow Engine Oil to Circulate Before Riding
After starting the
engine, whether the engine is cold or warm, you should wait a moment to allow
the engine oil to circulate before riding. This will allow the engine oil to
reach every part of engine, thus avoiding any unnecessary damage to the engine.
First Maintenance Check
The first
maintenance check of the motorcycle is very important. After the running in
period, all engine parts should be working properly. With some additional
adjustment, a change of engine oil and air filter, you can ensure that the engine
will be maintained at its best performance.
NOTE
* The maintenance
part in this manual can be used as guidance for maintenance check
procedures.(Please refer to page 29)

Engine oil must be
changed more frequently on motorcycle normally used under severe riding
conditions. Severe riding conditions include:
● Riding on rough and/or muddy road.
● Repeated short distance riding.
● Riding in severe cold weather.

and is explosive under certain conditions. Do not smoke or allow flames or
sparks in the area where petrol is stored or where the fuel tank is being
refueled.
* Do not overfill the tank. After
refueling, make sure the fuel cap is securely closed. Be careful not to spill
fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapor may ignite. If any fuel is
spilled, make sure the area is dry before starting the engine.
* Avoid repeated or prolonged
contact with skin or breathing of vapor. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
Brake
Pad
Inspect the brake
pads for wear, if the brake pads has reached its wear limit, please have them
checked and replaced by a recommended dealer and/or appointed service station
without delay.
Front Brake Fluid Check 4
(For Models Equipped
with Front Disc Brake) Brake fluid in the container must be kept above the
minimum level mark. When the brake fluid level reaches near the minimum level
make, you must inspect the condition of the brake pad.
!WARNING

Tyre Pressure
Correct tyre
pressure is very important to the safety and handling of the motorcycle. Tyre pressure should be
checked before every ride. When the motorcycle is being ridden, the
tyretemperature, and with it the tyre pressure, will change as a function of
speed and load. For this reason, tyre pressure should normally be checked
andadjusted only when the tyres are cold.

!WARNING
* Improper tyre inflation will
cause abnormal treadwear and create safety hazard. Under inflation may result
in tyre slips or coming off the rim and may result in a loss of vehicle
control.
* Never overload the
motorcycle above the maximum recommended load.
Overloading will damage the tyres and affect
the handling of the motorcycle.
* Remove any
particle imbedded into the tyre tracks.
* Check tyres for wear and tear
and if tracks are worn out or the rubber hardened, replace tyres immediately.
* The use of tyres
other than those listed on the technical data may adversely affect handling.
Spark
Plug
Carbon deposit and
incorrect gap size of the spark plug can cause the engine to misfire.Use spark
plug cleaning tools or a wire brush to clean the spark plug. After cleaning,
adjust the spark plug gap to 0.6-0.7mm
.
Recommended spark
plug:
CAUTION:
* The spark plug must be securely
tightened. An improperly tightened plug can become very hot and possible damage
the engine.
* Never use a spark
plug with an improper heat range, this may result in severe engine damage.
Air Filter Cleaning
A dirty air filter
will cause a reduction in engine power and an increase in fuel consumption. To
clean the air filter element:
● Remove the
screws from the air duct A dirty a
● Remove the
screws securing the air filter cover and remove the cover.
● Replace or
clean the air filter element.
CAUTION:
* Inspect the element before
installation. Adamaged air filter element will allow dirt and dust to enter the
engine, causing extensive engine damage. Never operate the engine without the
air filter element installed.
Battery
Maintain the correct
amount of battery fluid (except sealed battery).
The battery will
discharge itself when it is unused for an extended period of time. Under this
circumstance, disconnect or remove the battery and leave it in a cool and dry
place.
CAUTION:
Do not open the
cover of a sealed battery.
!WARNING
* The battery gives off explosive gases; keep spaeks, flames, and
cigarettes away. Provide adequate ventilation when changing or using the
battery in an enclosed area.

Storage
Short-term
Always store your
scooter in a cool, dry place and , if necessary, protect it against dust with a
porous cover.
CAUTION:
* Storing the
scooter in a poorly ventilated room or covering it with a tarp, while it is
still wet , will allow water and humidity to seep in and cause rust.
* To prevent
corrosion, avoid damp cellars and areas where strong chemicals are stored.
Long-term
Before storing your
scooter for several months:
1. Follow all the instructions in the Cleaning
section.
2. Drain the carburetor float chamber by loosening
the drain bolt; this will prevent fuel deposits from building up. Pour the
drained fuel into the fuel tank.
3. Fill up the fuel tank and add fuel stabilizer
(if available) to prevent fuel tank from rusting and the fuel from
deteriorating.
4. Perform the following steps to protect the
cylinder, piston rings, etc. from corrosion.
a. Remove the spark plug cap and spark plug.
b. Pour a teaspoonful of engines oil into the
spark plug bore.
c. Install the spark plug cap onto the spark
plug, and then place the spark plug on the cylinder head so that the electrodes
are grounded.(This will limit sparking during the next step)
d. Turn the engine over several times with the
starter.(This sill coat the cylinder wall with oil.)
e. Remove the spark plug cap from the spark
plug, and then install the spark plug and the spark plug cap.
!WARNING
To prevent damage or
injury from sparking, make sure to ground the spark plug electrodes while
turning the engine over.
5. Lubricate all control cables and the pivoting
points of all levers and pedals as well as the sidestand and mainstand.
6. Check and, if necessary, correct the tire
pressure, and then life the scooter so that both of its wheels are off the
ground Alternatively, turn the wheels a little every month in order to prevent
the tires. from becoming degraded in one spot.
7. Cover the muffler outlet with a plastic bag to
prevent moisture from entering it.
8. Remove the battery and fully charge it. Store
it in a cool, dry place and charge it once a month, Do not store the battery in
an excessively cold or warm place [less than 0C(30F)or more than 30C(90F)].

Catalytic
Converter (For models equipped with EEC Type Approval)
This motorcycle is equipped with a catalytic converter. The
catalytic converter contains precious metals that serve as catalysts, promoting
chemical reactions to convert the exhaust gasses without affecting the metals.
The catalytic converter acts on HC, CO, and
NOx.
The catalytic converter must operate at a high temperature
for the chemical reactions to take place. It can set on fire any combustible
materials that come near it. Park your motorcycle away from high grass, dry
leaves, or other flammables.
A defective catalytic converter contributes to air pollution,
and can impair your engines performance. Follow these guidelines to protect
your motorcycles catalytic converter.
● Always use unleaded petrol. Even a
small amount of leaded petrol can contaminate the catalyst metals, making the
catalytic converter ineffective.
● Keep the engine tuned-up.
● Have your motorcycle diagnosed and
replaces if it is misfiring, backfiring, stalling or otherwise not running
properly.
