STARTING THE ENGINE

- Ensure that the motorcycle is in neutral.

- Rotate the starter key clockwise (ON (A) position), in this way the electric circuits are active and the engine can start.

Stopping the engine

- Change gear to neutral.

- After a slight acceleration, release the throttle completely and rotate the ignition key anti-clockwise.

(A)

(D)

(B)

- Without using the throttle, press the electric start button (B).

-

12

-

- The key should point left (D), this means that all of the electric circuits are inactive. The engine cannot start.

- The key may be extracted from the ignition.

NOTE

Starting the engine while the key is being turned to the ON position may cause a loss in battery power.

COLD STARTING

The cold start function is responsible for aiding the engine start if this is cold.

- There is no need to use the throttle, simply start the engine. Note that the engine will start after a certain number of revolutions.

After some seconds, the engine will be at normal operation temperature. The engine will reach its optimal temperature, in low time and without causing damage.

NOTE

- If the engine is flooded then start with the throttle fully open.

- The motorcycle may be started in gear if the clutch is disengaged.

SHIFTING GEARS

The transmission is a 6 speed, return shift type meaning that to go back to first gear from a higher gear, you must shift back through the gears one by one.

To engage first gear from neutral, pull in the clutch lever and push down on the shift pedal then release the pressure on the shift pedal and gently release the clutch lever.

CAUTION

When changing gears, press firmly on the shift pedal to ensure complete, positive shifting. Careless, incomplete shifts can cause the transmission to jump out of gear and lead to engine damage.

STOPPING THE MOTORCYCLE

For maximum deceleration, close the throttle (A) and apply both front and rear brakes. Disengage the clutch as the motorcycle comes to a stop. Independent use of the front or rear brake may be advantageous under certain conditions.

Downshift progressively as speed is reduced to ensure good engine response when you want to accelerate.

(A)

BREAK-IN

To obtain the proper operating clearances in the engine and transmission that are necessary for smooth engine performance and reliability, an initial break-in must be completed. For the first hour or 100 Km of operation, run the engine at low rpm.

NOTE

The slow speed necessary during the break-in period may cause carbon to build up on the spark plug and soil it. If inspection of the spark plug shows this to be the case, replace the standard spark plug with a higher heat grade spark plug for the duration of the break-in period.

Break-in following these steps:

1. Start the engine and let it run at idle until the engine is thoroughly warmed up.

2. Stop and let the engine cool completely

3. Start the engine and ride for 10 minutes at moderate speed. NEVER ACCELERATE FULLY.

4. Stop and let the engine cool completely. Check and adjust chain slack and spoke tightness and make a general inspection.

5. Start the engine and ride for 20 minutes at moderate engine speed. NEVER ACCELERATE FULLY.

6. Stop and let the engine cool completely. Check and adjust (4).

7. Fit the inspected parts.

8. Fill the radiator up completely with cooling liquid. Before starting the engine bleed the air from the cooling system.

9. Start the engine and ride for 30 minutes at moderate speed.

10. Stop and let the engine cool completely. Check and adjust (4).

11. After the break-in procedure has been properly carried out, the motorcycle is ready for regular operation.

CAUTION

In any case, even an imprudent acceleration can cause engine trouble, take special care and use the proper skills and techniques required for correct driving of the motorcycle.

NOTE

Following the break-in, fit a new standard spark plug.

The operating instructions for the battery are as follows:

1.

Check the battery tension in open circuit status (disconnected).

2.

In case the battery's tension is below 12.60 V, or if the storage period has exceeded 6 months, the battery has to be recharged following the instructions in paragraph 3.

If the battery voltage is above 12.60 V, the battery can be installed on the vehicle without having to recharge it.

3.1. Constant voltage charge mode.

- Constant voltage = 14.40 - 14.70V

- Initial charge current = 0.1 – 0.5 Cn

- Charge duration = 6 hours minimum / 24 hours maximum.

3.2. Constant power charge mode.

- Maximum charge current = 0.1 Cn

- Recommended charging duration = 5 - 8 hours.

- The product (charge current) X (charge duration) must be within the range: 0.5 - 0.8 Cn.

Note

In case that a different mode of charging is used to those established here, never exceed the maximum allowed currents nor the maximum charge duration of 24 hours.

CAUTION

Not using the standard manner of charging may seriously shorten the battery life.

Never exceed the standard charge.

CAUTION

Inverting the polarity of the battery terminals may cause battery charge problems and cause damage to the battery system.

The red terminal is positive (+) and the black terminal is negative

(-).

THE COOLING SYSTEM

Radiator hose

Check the radiator hoses for cracks or deterioration, and connections for leaks.

Radiator

Check the radiator fins for obstruction by insects or mud. Clean off any obstructions with a stream of low-pressure water.

-

17

-

CAUTION

Using a high pressure water source could damage the radiator fins and render it ineffective.

Do not obstruct or deviate the radiator air intake by installing nonapproved accessories. Interfering with the radiator could cause overheating and result in engine damage.

Coolant

This absorbs excessive heat from the engine and transfers it to the air at the radiator. If the coolant level becomes low, the engine overheats and may suffer severe damage. Check the coolant level each day before riding the motorcycle. Replenish coolant if the level is low.

WARNING

To avoid burns, do not remove the radiator cap or try to change the coolant when the engine is still hot. Wait for it to cool down.

Anti-freeze liquid information

To protect the cooling system aluminium parts (engine and radiator) from rust and corrosion, the use of corrosion and rust inhibitor chemicals in the coolant is essential. If coolant containing corrosion and rust inhibitor chemicals is not used, over a period of time, the radiator will rust. This will block the cooling hoses.

CAUTION

Use of incorrect coolant solutions will cause severe engine and cooling system damage.

Use coolant containing corrosion inhibitors made specifically for aluminium engines and radiators in accordance with the instructions of the manufacturer.

WARNING

Coolant chemicals are harmful to the human body. Follow coolant manufacturer warnings and coolant handing instructions.

CAUTION

Soft or distilled water must be used with the inhibitor chemicals and the antifreeze in the cooling system.

If normal water is used in the system, it the cooling system tubes may become blocked.

If the lowest ambient temperature encountered falls below the freezing point of water, protect the cooling system against freezing.

Use a permanent type of anti-freeze (soft water and ethylene glycol plus corrosion and rust inhibitor chemicals for aluminium engines and radiators) in the cooling system.

For the coolant mixture ratio under extreme conditions, choose the mixture ratio listed on the container for the lowest ambient temperature.

Coolant Level

- Situate the motorcycle so that it is perpendicular to the ground.

- Remove the radiator cap in two stages. First turn the cap anti-clock wise and wait for a few seconds. Then push and turn it further in the same direction to remove the cap.

(A)

-

18

-

(A). Radiator Cap.

CAUTION

Permanent types of antifreeze on the market have anticorrosion and anti-rust properties. When diluted excessively these lose their antifreeze and anticorrosion properties. These must be diluted in accordance with the instructions of manufacturer.

NOTE

Check the level when the engine is cold.

Changing the coolant

- The coolant should be changed periodically to ensure long engine life.

- Wait for the engine to cool completely.

- Situate the motorcycle so that it is perpendicular to the ground.

- Remove the radiator cap.

- Place a container under the coolant drain plug, and drain the coolant from the radiator and engine by removing the drain plug at the bottom of the water pump cover. Immediately wipe or wash off any coolant that spills on the frame, engine, or wheels.

(1). Coolant level.

(2). Filler opening.

If the coolant level is low, add the correct amount of coolant through the filler opening.

Recommended liquid

Permanent type of antifreeze (distilled water and ethylene glycol) with corrosion and rust inhibitor chemicals for aluminium engines and radiators).

NOTE

Initially a permanent type of antifreeze is installed in the cooling system by the manufacturer. This is green in colour, containing

50 % ethylene glycol with a freezing point of –35°C.

Total quantity

Mix antifreeze and distilled water 1:1 (distilled water 50%, antifreeze

50%).

(A). Water pump cover.

(B). Coolant drain Plug.

WARNING

If coolant gets on the tyres this will make them slippery and could result in an accident.

-Inspection of the coolant. If white cotton-like patches appear in the liquid then this means that the aluminium elements of the cooling system are corroded. If the liquid is brown then this means that the steal or iron parts of the system are oxidized. In either case clean out the system.

- Check the cooling system for damage, loose joints, or leaks.

- Install the water pump cover drain plug and cylinder drain plug with the specified torque shown in the table. Always replace seals with new ones.

Bolt torques:

Water pump plug: 9 Nm.

- Fill the radiator up to the edge and install the radiator cap.

- Check the cooling system for leaks.

- Start the engine, warm up the engine, and then stop it.

- Check the coolant level after the engine cools down. Add coolant up to the bottom of the radiator filler neck.

SPARK PLUG

The standard spark plug is shown in the table and is tightened to

11 Nm.

Standard spark plug

NGK CR8 E or DENSO U24ESR-N 0.7-0.8 mm.

The spark plug should be taken out periodically to check the electrode gap. If the plug is oily or has carbon build up on it the clean it with a sand blaster. Following abrasive particle cleaning, the spark plug should be cleaned with a wire brush or similar. Measure the distance

-

20

between electrodes using a gauge and adjust in case that it is not correct by bending the outer electrode. If the spark plug electrodes are oxidised, damaged or the insulation is broken then replace the plug.

NOTE

Inspect every 30 hours. Replace every 60 hours.

To find the correct heat grade spark plug is being used, take it out and examine the insulation around the electrode. If the ceramic is light brown, the spark plug is correctly matched to engine temperature.

If the ceramic is white, the plug should be replaced with the next coldest plug. If the ceramic is black, the plug should be replaced with the next hottest plug.

NOTE

If the engine output decreases, replace the spark plug to regain performance.

and clean carbon deposits from the spark plug with a small tip or a metallic brush.

Readjust the gap in the plug between 0.7 and 0.8 mm.

(0.028 – 0.031 in).

Before removing the carbon deposits, check its colour; this colour tells us whether the standard plug is the best for our use.

AIR FILTER

An obstructed air filter restricts the air intake of the engine, increasing the petrol consumption and reducing the engine power as well as the destruction of the spark plug.

WARNING

An obstructed air filter may allow dirt to enter into the injector blocking it open; this could lead to an accident.

CAUTION

An obstructed air filter will allow dirt to enter the engine causing excess wear and engine damage.

Inspect this without fault, before and after each race or session.

Clean if necessary.

Cleaning the air filter

WARNING

Clean the filter in a well-ventilated zone and ensure that there are no sources of naked flame or sparks near the work area (including the focus of a powerful light). Do not use petrol to clean the filter as this could result in an explosion.

(A)

(B)

(C)

-Remove the cap (A).

-Remove the screw (B) and take the filter out (C).

Stuff a clean, lint-free towel into the intake manifold so that no dirt is allowed to enter.

WARNING

A chain that breaks or jumps off the sprockets could snag on the engine sprocket or lock the rear wheel, severely damaging the motorcycle and causing it to go out of control.

Checking tension

The space between the chain and the swing arm at the rear of the chain slider should be 30-50 mm. Rotate the rear wheel to find the place where the chain is tightest. Adjust the drive chain if it has too much or too little slack.

NOTE

In muddy or humid conditions, the mud gets inside the chain increasing tension and may cause the chain to break. To prevent this, adjust the chain to 30-50 mm of space between the chain and rocker arm whenever necessary.

(B)

(A). Rivets.

(B). Cover.

CHAIN GUIDE

The drive chain must be checked, adjusted, and lubricated in accordance with the Periodic Maintenance table in order to prevent excessive wear. If the chain is worn or badly adjusted (to tight or loose) then it may jump off the sprockets or break.

NOTE

Wheel alignment can also be checked using the straightedge or string method.

WARNING

Misalignment of the wheel will result in abnormal wear and may result in an unsafe riding condition.

- Tighten the chain adjustment nuts.

- Tighten the axle nut to 98 N-m.

- Rotate the wheel, measure the chain slack again at the tightest position, and readjust if necessary.

WARNING

If the axle nut is not securely tightened unsafe riding conditions may result.

Drive chain, chain guide, chain slide, and rear sprocket

When the chain has worn so much that it is more than 2% longer than when new, it is no longer safe for use and should be replaced.

Whenever the chain is replaced, inspect both the engine pinion and rear sprocket, and replace them if necessary. Worn teeth will cause the chain to wear more quickly.

NOTE

For maximum resistance and safety, a genuine part must be used for replacement.

To minimize any chance of the master link coming apart, the master link clip must be installed with the closed end of the

WARNING

If the brake lever or pedal feels mushy when it is applied, there might be air in the brake lines or the brake may be defective. Since it is dangerous to operate the motorcycle under such conditions, check the brakes immediately.

Brake fluid

Regularly check the brake fluid and periodically change it. It should also be changed if it is contaminated by water or dirt.

Recommended liquid

Use D.O.T 3 or D.O.T 4

Fluid level inspection

The front (A) and rear (B) reservoirs must be kept more than half full with brake fluid. If the amount of brake fluid is insufficient, add brake fluid.

(A)

CAUTION

Do not spill brake fluid onto any painted surface. Do not use fluid from a container that has been left open or that has been unsealed for a long time. Check for fluid leakage around the fittings. Check for brake line damage.

WARNING

Do not mix brands of fluid. Change the brake fluid in the brake line completely if the brake fluid must be refilled with a type other than the brake fluid already in the reservoirs.

Brake Wear Inspection

If the thickness of either pad is less than 1 mm, replace both pads in the calliper as a set. Pad replacement should be done by an authorized GAS GAS dealer.

STEERING

The steering should always be kept adjusted so that the handlebar will turn freely but without excessive play.

(B)

-

31

-

To check the steering adjustment, lift the bike off the ground using a stand underneath the chassis. Push the handlebar lightly to either side; if it continues moving under its own momentum, the steering is not too tight. Squatting in front of the motorcycle, grasp the lower ends of the front fork at the axle, and push and pull the bottom end of the front fork back and forth; if play is felt, the steering is too loose.

If the steering needs adjustment

- Using the stand under the frame, stabilize the motorcycle.

- Place a stand or block under the engine to raise the front wheel off the ground.

- Remove the handlebar by loosening the handlebar clamp bolts

(A).

- Install the upper suspension plate (D).

- Tighten the steering stem nut (B), the washers and bolts on the front forks to the correct torque.

CAUTION

Never leave the key in the lock. If the steering is turned to the left with the key in the lock then this will be severely damaged.

FRONT FORKS

The front fork should always be adjusted for the rider's weight and track conditions. The adjustments are done in 5 stages:

- Air pressure: affects the entire range of fork stroke. The air pressure increases when the forks heat up, or, as operation time increases.

We don't recommend using air pressure as the forks are designed to work without adding any air.

- Rebound and compression dampening adjustment: This adjustment affects the speed of the rebound. The fork rebound dampening adjustment has 18 positions. The tightened position is completely hard. The position 12 from the closed position is the standard and the position 18 is totally soft.

- Oil level adjustment: The effects of higher or lower fork oil level are only felt during the final 100 mm of fork stroke. A higher oil level will make the fork rebound more quickly. A lower oil level will make the fork rebound more slowly.

- Fork springs: Optional springs are available that are softer and stiffer than standard.

Air Pressure

The standard air pressure for the front forks is atmospheric pressure.

The air pressure in the fork legs increases as operation progresses and therefore the forks become harder.

- Using a stand underneath the chassis, stabilized the bike.

- Put something under the engine so that the front wheel does not touch the ground.

- Remove the air purge screw from the upper part of the front forks.

CAUTION

The front fork left and right tubes must be at the same level and aligned with the plate.

Adjusting the compression

- To adjust the compression, rotate the adjustment control on the upper part of the front forks by hand.

- Adjust the compression suited to your needs under certain conditions.

Adjust the compression to the standard measures (rotating anticlockwise, 6 positions).

Adjusting the oil level

- Using the stand under the frame, stabilize the motorcycle upright.

- Take out the handlebar bolts and take out the handlebars.

- Remove the suspension caps from the rods.

- Slowly compress the front forks all the way.

- Lift the fork springs.

Suspension rod spring

Different springs can be used depending on the weight of the driver and the track conditions.

- Hard springs make the forks harder and the rebound faster.

- Light springs make the forks softer and the rebound slower.

Suspension plate position

Ensure that the tyre does not touch the mudguard when the forks are fully compressed. There should be at least 5 mm clearance.

CAUTION

The right and left suspension rods must be adjusted equally.

REAR SUSPENSION

The rear suspension is made up of a shock absorber, swing arm, tie rods and rocker arm.

In general the operating characteristics of the single shock are similar to the front fork however this is characterized as well as by the shock, the articulated quadrangle composed of the rods and rocker arm.

To suit various riding conditions, the spring preload of the shock absorber can be adjusted or the spring can be replaced with an optional one. Also the dampening force can be adjusted easily so changing oil viscosity is unnecessary.

Rear shock absorber spring replacement

Stiffer or softer springs are available. If the standard spring is unsuitable for your purpose, select a proper one according to the rider's weight and course conditions.

- Use of a stiffer spring: faster rebound.

- Use of a softer spring: slower rebound.

NOTE

See the adjustments page 47.

WARNING

Improper removal of the spring from the rear shock absorber body may cause the spring and associated parts to be ejected at high velocity. Always wear eye and face protection. Removal and installation of spring should be performed by an official distributor.

WHEELS

Tyre

. Tyre pressure affects traction, handling, and tyre life.

. Adjust the tire pressure to suit track conditions and rider preference, but do not deviate excessively from the recommended pressure.

NOTE

Tyre pressure should be tested when the tyre is cold before driving.

Track conditions

- When the track is wet, muddy, sandy or slippery, reduce the tyre pressure.

- When the track is stony or hard, increase the tyre pressure.

Spokes and rims

The spokes on both wheels must all be tightened securely and evenly and not be allowed to loosen, Unevenly tightened or loose spokes will cause the rim to warp, hasten nipple and overall spoke fatigue, and may result in spoke breakage.

(A). Spoke tightening tool

Centring the rim

Put a quadrant gauge next to the rim and rotate the wheel to measure the axial centring.

Put the dial on the inside of the rim circumference, rotate the wheel and the difference between the largest and smallest measurement is the centring measurement.

If the wheel is slightly off-centre then this can be corrected by loosening certain spokes and tightening others in order to change the rim position. If the rim is bent or crooked then it must be replaced.

NOTE

A soldered area on the rim may give an excessive reading.

Ignore this while measuring the centring.

Cleaning

1- Preparation for cleaning

Before cleaning the motorcycle must be prepared so that water does not penetrate certain areas of the bike.

The exhaust: Once this is cold, cover it with a plastic bag attached with rubber.

Clutch and brake levers, grips and stop button: cover with a plastic bag.

Air filter intake: cover this with insulation tape or a cloth.

2- Where to be careful

Avoid spraying water with any great force near the following

places: Disc brake master cylinders and callipers; under the fuel tank (If water gets into the ignition coil or into the spark plug cap, the spark will jump through the water and be grounded out; the affected parts must be dried).

Front and rear hubs.

Steering pivots (steering tube).

Rear suspension system.

Swing arm pivots.

3- After cleaning

- Remove the plastic bags and clean the air filter intake.

- Lubricate the locations listed in the lubrication section.

- Start the engine and let it heat for 5 minutes.

- Check the brakes before driving the bike.

LUBRICATION

Lubricate the points shown here, with either motor oil or regular grease, periodically or whenever the vehicle is wet, and especially after using a high-pressure spray washer. Before lubricating each part, clean off any rusty spots with rust remover and wipe off any grease, oil, dirt, or grime.

General lubrication

- Clutch lever (A).

- Front brake lever (B).

- Rear brake pedal (C).

- Rear brake bearing (D).

- Shift pedal (E).

-

Use grease on the inner throttle cable

Chain lubrication

Lubricate the chain after wet terrain or when the chain looks dry. A high viscosity oil rather than low viscosity oil is better because it will stay a long time in chain providing lubrication.

Put oil on the sides of the chain rollers (A) so that it penetrates into these; remove excess oil.

The recommended viscosity is SAE 10W-50; if an SAE 10W-50 oil is not possible use an alternative according to the table above.

Checking the oil level and making the changes periodically are two very important operations to keep the engine in perfect shape.

Initially replace the oil after 5 hours of operation and then every 60 hours.

Fig. (A) The oil is located in the oil reservoir when the engine is running.

Fig. (B) If the bike has been stopped for a week, all the oil is in the engine crank case.

The oil is pumped from the oil reservoir to the engine when the engine is running. The engine oil reservoir is located in the top front part of the frame. The oil level drops when the bike is not in use.

The oil drips down to the engine crankcase. To check the oil level, follow these instructions:

If the bike has been stopped for a week, we can be sure that all the oil is within the engine crank case.

1. Start the engine and leave the motorcycle in neutral 3 minutes.

NOTE

When starting the engine, closely follow care and warnings from the section on starting the engine.

2. Stop the engine and wait three minutes.

(A)

4. Wipe the dipstick clean with a rag.

5. Keeping the motorcycle upright vertically, put the dip stick back in all the way without screwing into place.

6. Remove the dip stick and check the oil level. Oil level must be between line (L) (LOW) and (F) (FULL). If that is not the case, fill up the reservoir until the level reaches just the (F) line.

3. Take out the oil dipstick (A).

-

44

-

CAUTION

The level of the motor oil has to be between line (L) and line (F), engine damage may occur otherwise.

Check the oil level with the dipstick, with the bike in a completely upright position, every time you are going to use the motorcycle.

NOTE

The engine oil expands and thus the level increases when it is hot.

Check and adjust the level when the motor oil is not hot.

Changing the oil and filter

The oil should be changed when the engine is hot, since this helps the oil to go out through the drain located in the lowest part of the engine.

WARNING

The engine oil and the exhaust manifold can be very hot and cause burns

.

Wait until the oil and the exhaust manifold are a little cooler.

WARNING

Engine oil is a health risk. Avoid any contact with this given that this could provoke irritations and, in the worst cases, skin cancer.

- Keep new or used oil away from the reach of children and animals.

- Clean clothes sleeves and pants.

- Wash yourself with soap if oil has been in contact with your skin.

To change the oil, follow the following steps:

1. Place a recipient underneath the crankcase.

NOTE

Put used motor oil in an appropriate container for recycling.

WARNING

The engine may be damaged if the oil is not used properly or the specifications recommended by GAS GAS MOTOS are not followed.

Use the type of oil specified in the section on Petrol and Oil recommendations.

9. Start the engine and allow it to run some minutes. Check for oil leaking from the filter cover.

10. Check that the oil level is correct according to the oil level verification process.

TUNING THE SUSPENSION

No area of machine adjustment is more critical than proper suspension tuning; an incorrectly tuned suspension will keep even the best rider from attaining the full benefit of his machine's ability Check the suspension according to the pilot and the conditions of the terrain.

When tuning the suspension don’t forget:

- If the machine is new, break-in the suspension with at least one hour of riding before making any setting evaluations or changes.

- The major factors which must be considered in suspension tuning are: rider weight, rider skill and the track conditions (as well as the rider's style and positioning on the machine)

- If you have a problem, test by changing your riding posture or position so that the cause of the problem can be deduced.

- It is a wise practice to adjust suspension settings to suit the rider's strong points. If you are fast through the corners, adjust the suspension to allow fast cornering.

-Make setting changes in small increments; a little bit goes a long way, and it is very easy to over adjust a setting.

- The front and rear suspension should be balanced; when one is changed, the other should be changed similarly.

When evaluating suspension performance the rider must make every effort to ride consciously and recognize the effects of his changes; such things as changes in rider position and increasing fatigue may lead to incorrect judgments about required setting adjustments.

- When the proper settings have been determined for a particular track, they should be written down for reference when returning to that track.

- Lubricate the bearings of the swinging arm, rods, rocker and joints before making changes and every 5 refills to prevent excess friction affecting the operation of the suspension.

Front forks

The fork oil level is adjustable. A change in the oil level will not affect the lower part of the stroke, but it will affect the upper part.

- When the oil level is raised:

The spring effect becomes more progressive, and the front fork action feels 'harder' in the later stage of travel, near the bottom of the stroke.

- When the oil level is lowered:

The spring effect becomes less progressive, and the front fork action feels softer near the bottom of the stroke.

- Change the fork oil level correctly to make the forks work more at the end of fork travel.

- If fork bottoming is experienced, raise fork oil level in 10 mm increments. This increase will cause a change in the upper stroke of the spring.

Adjusting the oil level

Adjust the oil level of the front forks (see the maintenance chart).

Changing incorrect adjustments

Listed below are some symptoms of improper suspension settings and the most adequate means of correcting them.

The proper settings can be achieved by applying the information in this chapter in a scientific manner. Simply take time a think about the changes you believe necessary, check them against the symptoms and cures described here, make the changes in small increments, and take notes on the changes and their effects.

Front fork symptoms

- The front forks are too stiff

. Rebound adjustment incorrect.

. The springs are too strong.

. Too much oil.

. Oil too dense.

- The front forks stiffen at the end of the stroke

. The fork oil level is too high.

- The front forks operate but ride is too hard

. Oil too dense.

. Fork oil degraded

- Too soft

The front forks dive excessively during braking and deceleration

1. Front fork oil level low.

2. The springs are too soft.

3. Oil too light.

4. Fork oil degraded.

5. Rebound compression incorrect.

-

-

Rear shock absorber symptoms

- Too hard

1. Rigid suspension.

. High compression.

. Hard spring.

2. Hard driving.

. Imbalance between the spring and rebound

(too low).

3. The spring is hard or very preloaded

- Too soft

On landing after a big jump, bottoming occurs.

. Spring too soft or compression damping is too soft

. Shock oil degraded.

Determining the Proper Settings

- Standard adjustments

From the factory, the machine is set up for an intermediate-weight rider possessing intermediate riding ability. If the rider weigh or ability is greater or lower than average then some adjustments may be made to the suspension.

- Readjusting the suspension

Type of surface

Smooth

Rough

Soft spring

Hard spring

Experience

Beginner: softer spring with more rebound damping.

Experienced: Harder spring.

Weight

Heavy: harder spring.

Light: soft spring

Track type

- Many corners:

Lower the front end slightly (increase the fork tube height 5mm).

This increases agility.

- Fast course with many jumps:

Lift the front (lower the fork tube height to 5mm). This increases stability.

- Deep pits or sandy ground:

Lift the front for increased stability.

Following the preliminary adjustments, make a trial run on the ground to evaluate the changes.

Remember:

1- Always make changes in small increments.

2- Make sure the rider is logical in their evaluation.

3- A change in the front suspension requires a change in the rear suspension and vice-versa.

Front and rear compatibility

Use this procedure to determine if the suspension is balanced reasonably well: Situate the motorcycle so that it is perpendicular to the ground. While standing next to the machine, pull on the front brake and place one foot on the brake firmly. If the bike maintains its level attitude as the suspension is compressed, the suspensions are well balanced. Sit astride the bike and take up a riding posture the check to see if the bike is in a horizontal position. If one end drops noticeably more than the other, the front and rear are not compatible and must be readjusted to achieve a better balance.

This is one of the most effective adjustment procedures but suspension settings will vary depending on the conditions at the track and the rider's preferences.

Front end searching going downhill or accelerating out of a bend ?

Front forks too soft.

1. Increase the compression damping or rebound damping.

2. Increase the oil level 10 mm.

3. Use alternate harder spring, or increase spring preload.

Front end knifes or over-steers in turns (front end tends to turn inward)?

Front forks too soft.

1. Increase the compression damping or rebound damping.

2. Increase the oil level 10 mm.

Front end pushes out or slides in turns

1. Decrease the compression damping or rebound damping.

2. Release air from the fork.

3. Reduce the oil level 10 - 20 mm.

4. Use a softer spring.

Front fork doesn’t respond to small potholes in wide turns

- Front fork hard:

1. Decrease the compression damping or rebound damping.

2. Reduce the oil level 10 mm.

3. Use a soft spring.

Rear end kicks when braking on potholes

The shock probably has too little rebound damping.

- Increase the rebound damping.

Rear tire won't "hook up" out of corners

(A loss of traction coming out of turns).

- The shock is too stiff:

1. Reduce rear shock absorber spring.

2. Reduce compression.

3. Use a softer spring.

Landing on front wheel in fast jumps

(could also be a rider position problem).

- Rebound too soft or spring too hard:

1. Increase rebound.

2. Reduce preload of the shock spring.

3. Reduce compression.

Front and rear of the bike bottom off high speed jumps:

(If harsh bottoming occurs once or twice per lap of the race).

. Front and rear suspension system are too soft:

1. Front : Increase oil level and/or use harder spring.

2. Rear: Use a stronger spring and / or increase compression.

NOTE

After any adjustment, check front and rear compatibility.

-

50

-

Adjustments depending on the bottoming of the suspension

(rear shock).

- Bottoms at low speed: Increase spring preload to maximum.

- Bottom after successive 3 or 4 successive jumps.

NOTE

The rear shock on this machine, due to its adjustment possibilities, could confuse some riders.

a) The rear shock does not bottom out when the spring and damping are correct for the total weight of the machine and rider

(full stroke).

b) A bottoming sensation (even through the machine is not bottoming) may actually be the inability of rider and machine weight to overcome an overly stiff spring or excessive damping.

Observe the rear while jumping; if it does not approach the limit then attempt to lower the spring preload.

Gears

Selecting the development. Preconditions.

Track conditions: vary the transmission by changing the rear sprocket.

Fast track: Sprocket with lower number of teeth.

Bends or sandy/soft hills: sprocket with more teeth.

- If the time trial is long then the development may be longer for increased speed.

- When the time trial of the course has many curves, hills or is wet, the development is decreased so that gear shifting is possible at low speeds.

-As a result gears can be changed depending on the terrain on the day of the race. Ensure to correctly adjust the machine in order to run the entire race.

- If the straight portion of a course on which the machine can be run at maximum speed is longer, the machine should be set so that the maximum speed can be developed all the way to the end of the straight course, but care should be taken not to over-rev the engine

- It is difficult to adapt the machine to the entire circuit, for this reason it is necessary to determine the sections that have more effect on time and to adapt the motorcycle to these parts. This strategy means that the machine will gain overall track performance.

Special care according to track conditions

1. In dry, dusty conditions (such as volcanic ash or fine powdery dust) special care must be given to keep the air cleaner element clean.

2. Wet heavy clay or mud sticking to the tyres and other parts of the vehicle. The mud can add significantly to the weight if the vehicle obstructing the radiator and therefore reduce performance. Take care not to overheat the engine. The same applies to deep sand.

3. In muddy or sandy conditions adjust the chain looser than in other conditions as the chain and sprockets will pack with mud/sand and reduce chain slack.

4. Check chain and pinion/sprocket wear frequently when riding in mud or sand since wear is increased in these conditions

5. In dusty conditions as the air cleaner collects dust, the engine runs richer.

WARRANTY TERMS AND CONDITIONS

(According to Law decree 23/2003 on the 10th of July, covering Warranties on Consumer Item Sales)

Warranty terms of the manufacturer GASGAS Motos, S.A.

The company GAS GAS MOTOS, S.A. (hereafter referred to as “GG”), with this present document guarantees the consumer, the purchaser of a vehicle manufactured by GG, that both the materials and the manufacturing are free of defects in accordance with the highest standards of quality. Consequently, GG with this document guarantees the consumer (hereafter referred to as the

“purchaser”), in accordance with the conditions set out below, the repair, free of charge, of any defect in materials or that might result from faulty manufacture that is detected in a new motorcycle within the period covered by this Warranty and with no limit on the number of kilometres covered or hours of use.

Warranty Period

The period covered by this Warranty will begin on the day of delivery of the vehicle to the purchaser by a GG authorised dealer, or in the case of demonstration models, on the date in which the vehicle is used for the first time.

The seller will be responsible for any unwarranted faults that become apparent within the period established in the Law decree
