Precautions for Safe Riding
Please obey all local traffic regulations and consider safety prior to
riding. It is advised to control your speed to stay within safe limits.
Practice before Riding
Before riding the scooter in traffic, it is advised to practice your riding
at a spacious and traffic-free place so that you are skilled enough to
ride safely and are familiar with the scooter’s controls. Practice is
essential to safety. Please observe any special training and or
government test required before using your scooter on public
highways.
Knowing Your Safety Speed Limit
Safety speed limit varies in accordance with the road conditions,
riding skill and the weather. To be aware of speed limits is helpful to
avoid traffic accidents.
Be Careful on Rainy Days
It is dangerous to ride on damp or wet roads. Therefore, high speed
should be avoided and special care should be taken when turning.
Bear this in mind, the braking distance on rainy days can be twice as
much as on dry days.
Correct Wearing of Safety Helmet
Always wear a safety helmet whenever you ride, and make sure you
fasten the strap securely whenever you wear the helmet.
Safety clothing Recommendation
Bright-coloured and well-fitting clothes are recommended. Fitted with
EC protection. Always wear gloves.

Fuel and Oil Recommendations
Fuel
Only use unleaded fuel with an octane number 90 or higher. Unleaded
fuel can extend spark plug life and exhaust component life.
Use of leaded fuel or lead additive will damage the catalytic convertor
in the exhaust.
Engine Oil
Use only a high quality 4-stroke semi-synthetic engine oil, this will
extend the longevity of the engine. Grade SE or SD engine oil in API
method are recommended with a viscosity of SAE10W-40. If this oil
is not available, please purchase appropriate substitutes according to
the data listed below.
Transmission Oil
Use good quality EP 80w-90 gear oil.

Running-in of New Scooter
18
Running-in of New Scooter
The first 500 miles are the most important in the life of your scooter.
Proper running-in operation during this period will help ensure
maximum life and performance from your new scooter. The parts are
manufactured of high quality materials, and machined parts are
finished to close tolerances. Correct running-in procedure allows the
machined surfaces to bed in and run smoothly. Freeing up of the
internal parts is achieved after approximately 60 running hours, and
during this running-in period the engine will loosen up and
performance will improve.
Maximum Throttle Operation Recommendation
This table shows the maximum recommended throttle operation
during the running-in period.
Initial 500 miles
Less than 1/2 throttle
Initial 1000 miles
Less than 3/4 throttle
Vary the engine Speed
The engine speed should be varied and not held at a constant speed.
This allows the parts to be “loaded”with pressure, and then unloaded,
allowing the parts to cool. This aids the running-in process of the parts.
It is essential that some load should be placed on the engine
components during running-in. Keep the engine spinning but do not
place excessive loads on the engine.
Avoiding Constant Low Speed
It is not beneficial when running in the engine to operate it at a
constant low speed. Allow the engine to accelerate freely within the
recommended maximum limits. Do not, however, use full throttle for
the first 1000 miles.

Running-in of New Scooter
19
Allow the Engine Oil to Circulate before Riding
Allow sufficient idling time after warm or cold engine start up before
applying load or revving up the engine. This allows time for the
lubricating oil to reach all critical engine components. Failure to do
this will shorten the life of your engine.
Performing the First Service
The first 500Km service is the most important service your scooter
will receive. During running-in all of the engine components will have
bedded in and all the other parts will have seated in. All adjustments
will be restored, all fasteners will be tightened, and the old oil will be
replaced.
Timely performance of the 500Km service will ensure optimum
service life and performance from the engine.
Caution
The 500Km service should be performed as outlined in the inspection and
maintenance section in this manual. Pay attention to the caution and
warning in that section.
Failure to have your Royal Alloy scooter serviced will void the warranty.
