In order for the engine, transmission, and clutch to function properly, maintain the engine oil at the proper level, and change the oil and replace the oil filter in accordance with the Periodic Maintenance Chart.

Check the oil level before each ride and change the oil according to the periodic maintenance chart in the Owner’s Manual. |
