SERVICE PRECAUTIONS
Make sure to install new gaskets, O-rings,
circlips, cotter pins, etc. when
reassembling.
When tightening bolts or nuts, begin with
larger-diameter to smaller ones at several
times, and tighten to the specified torque
diagonally.
Use genuine parts and lubricants.
When servicing the motorcycle, be sure to
use special tools for removal and
installation.
After disassembly, clean removed parts.
Lubricate sliding surfaces with engine oil
before reassembly.

1. GENERAL INFORMATION
CK 1
Apply or add designated greases and
lubricants to the specified lubrication
points.
After reassembly, check all parts for proper
tightening and operation.
When two persons work together, pay
attention to the mutual working safety.
Disconnect the battery negative (-) terminal
before operation.
When using a spanner or other tools, make
sure not to damage the motorcycle surface.
After operation, check all connecting points,
fasteners, and lines for proper connection
and installation.
When connecting the battery, the positive
