WARNING
Operating a motorcycle with excessively worn tire will adversely affect traction, stability
and handling. Always check tire pressure and tread before riding. Inspection should be
made while the tires are cold. Check for embedded nails and sharp objects before every
ride.
OPERATION
Preride Inspection
Inspecting your motorcycle before you ride it will help insure a safe ride. It will only take
a few minutes, and can help detect problems before they progress to failure.
•Oil level – check level and add oil if necessary.
•Front and Rear brakes – check operation and adjust if necessary.
•Tires – check condition and pressure.
•Throttle – check for smooth operation all the way through open to close in all
steering positions.
•Lights and signals – check that the headlight, taillight, turn signals and horn function
properly.
•Chain – be sure that it is lubricated and check for 1/8” play up and down. Adjust if
necessary. Be sure that the chain and sprockets are not worn.
•Steering – be sure that the front end moves smoothly from left to right.

Page 19
Break In
During the first 250 miles, avoid full throttle use. Keep the engine under 6000 rpm, the
maximum speed should not exceed 50 MPH. Breaking in the engine correctly will ensure
long engine life.
NOTE: Motorcycle must be serviced between 100-105 miles by an authorized Johnny Pag
Motorcycles dealer to keep warranty valid.
MAINTENANCE
ENGINE OIL
Engine oil quality is the chief factor affecting engine performance and service life.
The motorcycle uses engine oil SAE 10w/40 API SG when being sold. Use 10w-30 after
the first 150 mile break in period. There is no external oil filter. Recommended cleaning of
the oil screen is every 1000 miles.
OIL LEVEL
Check the oil level before each ride. To do this, remove the dipstick (1) and wipe it clean.
Reinsert the dipstick into the crankcase but do not screw it in. Remove the dipstick and
check that the fluid is between the upper (2) and lower (3) level marks. DO NOT
OVERFILL.
CAUTION:

Page 20
Running the engine with insufficient oil can cause serious damage to your engine.
CHANGING ENGINE OIL
To drain the engine oil, remove the engine drain bolt (1). Let the oil drain
completely before refilling the case with oil. If cleaning the oil screen, be sure to wait until
all the oil has drained before removing the right side crankcase cover (2). Once the oil is
drained, remove the right side crankcase cover (2) and remove the oil pump (3). With the
oil pump removed, you can easily remove the oil screen (4) and wash thoroughly with
carburetor cleaner. Reinstall oil screen onto the oil pump and reinstall the oil pump onto
the engine. Replace the crankcase gasket and install the right side crankcase cover. Refill
the oil to the correct level.
Please call your local JPM dealer to get replacement gaskets and oil screens, if
necessary. Part numbers can be found on in your parts book or by visiting JohnnPag.com.
SPARK PLUG REPLACEMENT
CAUTION:
Be sure the ignition is off and the engine run switch is in the off position before you
replace the spark plugs.
First remove the side head covers (1). This will expose the coil wire (2). Pull the coil wire
off the spark plug. This will expose the spark plug (3). Use a spark plug socket to remove
the spark plug.
