    INTRODUCTION
    This chapter includes all information necessary to perform recommended checks and adjustments. 
    If followed, these preventive maintenance procedures will ensure more reliable vehicle operation, a 
    longer service life and reduce the need for costly overhaul work. This information applies to vehicles 
    already in service as well as to new vehicles that are being prepared for sale. All service technicians 
    should be familiar with this entire chapter.

    NOTE:
     Air filter
     This model’s air filter is equipped with a disposable oil-coated paper element, 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 service
     After disassembling the brake master cylinders and calipers, always change the fluid. Regularly 
    check the brake fluid levels and fill the reservoirs as required.

    ADJUSTING THE VALVE CLEARANCE
    The following procedure applies to all of the 
    valves.
    NOTE:
     Valve clearance adjustment should be made 
    on a cold engine, at room temperature.
     When the valve clearance is to be measured 
    or adjusted, the piston must be at top dead 
    center (TDC) on the compression stroke.
    1. Remove:
     Rider seat
    Refer to GENERAL CHASSIS on page 4-
    1.
     Fuel tank
    Refer to FUEL TANK on page 7-1.

     Valve clearance
    Out of specification → Adjust.
    ▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼
    a. Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise.
    b. When piston #1 is at TDC on the compres-
    sion stroke, align the TDC mark “a” on the 
    generator rotor with the mark “b” on the 
    crankcase.
    NOTE:
    TDC on the compression stroke can be found 
    when the camshaft lobes are turned away from 
    each other.
    c. Measure the valve clearance with a thick-
    ness gauge “2”.
    NOTE:
     If the valve clearance is incorrect, record the 
    measured reading.
     Measure the valve clearance in the following 
    sequence.
    Valve clearance (cold)
    Intake
    0.11–0.20 mm (0.0043–0.0079

    d. To measure the valve clearances of the 
    other cylinders, starting with cylinder #1 at 
    TDC, turn the crankshaft counterclockwise 
    as specified in the following table.

    5. Remove:
     Camshafts
    NOTE:
     Refer to CAMSHAFTS on page 5-9. When removing the timing chain and cam-
    shafts, fasten the timing chain with a wire to 
    retrieve it if it falls into the crankcase.
    6. Adjust:

    a. Remove the valve lifter “1” and the valve 
    pad “2” with a valve lapper “3”.
    NOTE:
     Cover the timing chain opening with a rag to 
    prevent the valve pad from falling into the 
    crankcase.
     Make a note of the position of each valve 
    lifter “1” and valve pad “2” so that they can be 
    installed in the correct place.
    b. Select the proper valve pad from the follow-
    ing table.

    3-6
    NOTE:
     The thickness “a” of each valve pad is 
    marked in hundredths of millimeters on the 
    side that touches the valve lifter.
     Since valve pads of various sizes are origi-
    nally installed, the valve pad number must be 
    rounded in order to reach the closest equiva-
    lent to the original.
    c. Round off the original valve pad number 
    according to the following table.
    EXAMPLE:
    Original valve pad number = 148 (thickness 
    = 1.48 mm (0.058 in))
    Rounded value = 150
    d. Locate the rounded number of the original 
    valve pad and the measured valve clear-
    ance in the valve pad selection table. The 
    point where the column and row intersect is 
    the new valve pad number.
    NOTE:
    The new valve pad number is only an approxi-
    mation. The valve clearance must be mea-
    sured again and the above steps should be 
    repeated if the measurement is still incorrect.
    e. Install the new valve pad “1” and the valve 
    lifter “2”.
    NOTE:
     Lubricate the valve pad with molybdenum 
    disulfide grease.
     Lubricate the valve lifter with molybdenum 
    disulfide oil.
     The valve lifter must turn smoothly when 
    rotated by hand.
     Install the valve lifter and the valve pad in the 
    correct place.
    f. Install the exhaust and intake camshafts, 
    timing chain and camshaft caps.
    NOTE:
     Refer to CAMSHAFTS on page 5-9.
     Lubricate the camshaft bearings, camshaft 
    lobes and camshaft journals.
     First, install the exhaust camshaft.
     Align the camshaft marks with the camshaft 
    cap marks.
     Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise several 
    full turns to seat the parts.
    g. Measure the valve clearance again.
    h. If the valve clearance is still out of specifi-
    cation, repeat all of the valve clearance 
    adjustment steps until the specified clear-
    ance is obtained.

    b. Turn the bypass air screw “1” with a white 
    paint mark out a little, and then turn it in 
    fully.
    c. Using the throttle body that has the bypass 
    air screw with a white paint mark as the 
    standard, turn the bypass air screws with-
