GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
• Wear a helmet and goggles
A helmet is the most important piece of gear to wear. Helmets do not reduce essential vision or hearing. Generally, helmets do not cause or intensify injury if you crash. Helmets simply help your skull protect your intelligence, your memory, your personality, and your life.
Your eyesight is equally valuable. Wearing suitable eye protection can help keep your vision unblurred by the wind and help shield your eyes from branches and airborne matter like bugs, dirt, or pebbles kicked up by tires. Wear a helmet and eye protection every time you ride.
• Wear protective gear
Wear proper clothing when you ride. Avoid loose clothes or scarves, which could get caught in moving parts. Abrasion injuries can be minimized by wearing protective clothing including gloves, strong boots that fit over the ankle, long pants, and a long sleeve shirt or jackets. Experienced riders often wear a kidney belt and chest or back protector for additional comfort and protection.
• Inspect your machine before riding
Before each use, perform an inspection per “Periodic Inspection” section starting on page 2-3.
• No Passengers
Suzuki RMs are designed for the rider only.
• Practice on level ground
Before you begin riding, you should find a good place to practice the skills you need to ride safely. Find a flat, open area with enough space to maneuver. Check with your Suzuki dealer or call police department if you do not know where you can ride.
Review the controls on your motorcycle before riding.
• Know your limits
Always ride within the boundaries of your own skills. Knowing these limits and staying within them will help you avoid accidents. Ride only in events appropriate for your experience.
Safely competing on a motorcycle requires that your mental and physical skills are fully part of the experience. You should not attempt to operate a motor vehicle, especially one with two wheels, if you are tired or under the influence of alcohol or other drugs. Alcohol, illegal drugs, and even some prescription and over-the-counter drugs and cause drowsiness, loss of coordination, loss of balance, and loss of good judgement. If you are tired or under the influence of alcohol or other drugs, PLEASE DO NOT RIDE your motorcycle.
• Conclusion
The actions of other riders are unpredictable.
Your motorcyclee’s condition can change. These factors can best be dealt with by giving every ride your full attention.
Circumstances beyond your control could lead to an accident. You need to prepare for the unexpected by wearing a helmet and other protective gear, and practicing safe riding techniques to minimize the damage to you and your machine.
May all of your rides on your new Suzuki be winning rides!

CARBURETOR TUNING
The carburetion of your motorcycle was carefully selected after extensive testing. You will find that the carburetion will function smoothly under many varied operating conditions. For best results we recommend that the adjustments and carburetion jetting be left “as is” from the factory.
Some riders may operate their motorcycle under extreme operating conditions such as; very high altitudes or extreme cold and hot temperatures. In these circumstances the jetting of the carburetor or other adjustments may need to be altered slightly.
Riders who are not familiar with the operation and jetting procedures of the MIKUNI carburetor should have their local authorized Suzuki dealer perform these alterations. Mechanically experienced riders can alter the carburetor settings based on the following information and specifications.

PRINCIPLES OF CARBURETOR
TUNING
CARBURETOR COMPONENTS AND FUNC-
TIONS
The carburetor consists of a number of parts as shown below. The asterisk (*) marked parts are precisely machined, which meter the intake air (oxygen) and fuel so that the air/fuel mixture ratio is controlled accurately. They can be divided by three operation-related groups; pilot (slow) system, intermediate system and main system, and they achieve their functions in each corresponding throttle opening range. It is necessary to have a full understanding of them for proper carburetor tuning.

MACHINE TUNING 4-3
As shown below, each tuning part is located between the air/fuel passage and has its own air/fuel mixture adjustable range in terms of the throttle valve opening. The chart indicates that the carburetor can supply correct air/fuel mixture to the engine in any range because of the overlapping adjustable range of the each part.

AIR SCREW
When performing carburetor tuning, first find out in what throttle opening range an improper air/fuel mixture is supplied, by checking the color of exhaust smoke, spark plug, throttle response, power, etc. Second, replace or adjust the part(s) related to the throttle opening range by referring to the following instructions. The sizes referred to in the illustrations are those of standard setting.
PILOT JET
Rich
3/4
Lean
The pilot jet meters the fuel supplied to the pilot system. Each jet size is indicated by a number. Larger number means a larger bore diameter and fitting a larger numbered pilot jet enriches the air/fuel mixture.
The air screw is located in the inlet air passage and meters the air for the slow system. As it has a right-hand thread, tightening it makes the passage narrower, allowing less amount of intake air to flow and resulting in richer air/fuel mixture. Air flow adjustment is effective within a range of 1/2 – 2 turns out.
POWER JET
The power jet supplies the necessary amount of fuel to the carburetor bore for correcting fuel/air mixture ratio. When engine speed is 9 000 to
11 000 r/min, the passage is opened by solenoid valve. The solenoid valve opens the passage when the current not flows from CDI unit.

Needle clip
O.D. of needle
Taper portion
Clip
The jet needle is linked to the throttle valve by means of the needle clip. Its lower part is tapered and it has five grooves cut in the upper part where the needle clip fits.
To adjust the air/fuel mixture with the jet needle, change position of the needle clip which is set in the
4th groove. The lower groove the clip is moved to, the higher the jet needle rises and the larger the clearance with the needle jet becomes, resulting in a richer air/fuel mixture ratio.
The needle clip position can be changed by half to fine-tune the setting as following manner.
• Replace the cable holder with the included holder and included red washer.
The two holders are different in color. The standard holder is gray. The included holder is yellow. The included holder and red washer must be installed as a set.
• Change the red washer location from over the needle clip to under the needle clip. This change will move the needle position by half to the richer side. The original position of red washer is over the needle clip.
By replacing the jet needle with the optional one, it is possible to perform the same setting as describing above. Change the jet needle from 6CHY17 type to 6CHY16 type. This change will move the needle position by half to the richer side. 6CHY16 type jet needles are available as optional parts.
For example, “6CHY17-65-3rd” with the red washer installed under the needle clip is the same setting as “6CHY16-65-3rd”.

THROTTLE STOP SCREW
The throttle stop screw determines the full close position of the throttle valve and should be adjusted in the following procedures.
• Loosen the throttle stop screw lock-nut.
• Adjust the throttle stop screw as follows:
* Turn in (to raise the throttle valve).
* Turn out (to lower the throttle valve).
• With the throttle stop screw held immovable, tighten the lock-nut to lock the screw.

NOTE:
Opening the throttle valve slightly by adjusting the throttle stop screw may often improve hesitation problem due to lack of mixture on returning the throttle.
If engine idling is desired, turn in the throttle stop screw to raise the throttle valve in the above procedures.
Throttle valve opening position
Standard
After touching the throttle stop screw to the throttle valve, turn in the stop screw 1/4 –
3/4 turn to raise the throttle valve.
CAUTION
Too high an engine idle may cause driveability failure such as lack of engine braking and poor deceleration during brake application.

CARBURETOR TUNING IN PRACTICE
In the previous section, basic principles of carburetor tuning have been discussed. Described in this section are the bases for carburetor tuning required when coping with variations in air (oxygen) concentration.
VARIATION IN AIR (OXYGEN) CONCENTRATION AND CARBURETOR CONDITIONS
As the air, affected by the temperature, altitude and humidity, gets expanded or compressed, air (oxygen) concentration varies accordingly. Each of these three factors affects the air in different ways, and the following graphs show their effects respectively in terms of the oxygen concentration.

HUMIDITY
In the above graphs, oxygen concentration is graduated on the vertical axis while the temperature, altitude and humidity are on the horizontal axis respectively. Oxygen concentration is set 100 % under the conditions of 20 °C (68 °F), 0 m (0 ft) and 50 % humidity. The standard carburetor setting is chosen to obtain the best engine performance under these conditions.
The graph at the left shows that the oxygen concentration changes about 10 % in the 0 °C (32 °F) to 40 °C
(104 °F) temperature difference, the one in the center shows about 20 % change in the 0 to 2 000 m (6 562 ft) altitude difference and the one at the right shows about 5 % change in the 0 to 100 % humidity difference.
As for humidity, its normal range is from 20 to 95 %. Therefore the possible effect of humidity on the oxygen concentration is so little that it can be disregarded. Consequently, we can say that the oxygen concentration varies by as much as 20 % depending on the temperature and altitude under normal riding conditions. On the other hand, different from the air, the fuel (gasoline) hardly changes in volume even when such environmental conditions change. Therefore, increase in oxygen concentration will make the air/fuel mixture richer and decrease will make it lean.
As the carburetor mixes gasoline and air, which are metered by each jet in varying proportions to suit throttle opening, the air/fuel mixture is affected if the air concentration itself varies as described above. Then proper engine power output can not be attained and, should the mixture become too lean, a piston seizure may result. To compensate for such change in the air concentration, it is required to carry out carburetor tuning beforehand. This requirement applies to all models of motorcycles and ATVs if they are used in areas where temperature and altitude range widely. The next section describes the procedure of the above tuning in detail.
MACHINE TUNING 4-7
JUDGING AIR/FUEL MIXTURE
For proper carburetor tuning, it is necessary to know how to judge the air/fuel mixture made in the carburetor; whether too rich, too lean or properly mixed. Given below are the symptoms observed when the engine is not supplied with the proper air/fuel mixture ratio from the carburetor. Check each item as reference for judging the air/fuel mixture condition.
When air/fuel mixture is too rich
1) The engine noise is dull and intermittent.
2) The engine condition becomes worse when the bypass is applied.
3) The engine condition becomes worse as it is warmed up.
4) The engine condition improves when the air cleaner is removed.
5) The spark plug is fouled with carbon (wet and oily).
6) The exhaust gas produces heavy smoke.
When air/fuel mixture is too lean
1) The engine overheats.
2) The engine condition improves when the bypass is applied.
3) Acceleration is poor.
4) The spark plug is burned white.
5) The speed of the engine fluctuates and lack of power is noticed.
6) Detonation and pinging are experienced.

SUSPENSION BALANCE
Balancing the front to rear suspension properly is the most critical adjustment for suspension performance. If the front forks are adjusted harder than the rear suspension, such as changing to heavier front fork oil, stiffer compression and rebound setting, air pressure build up in the forks and so on, the front forks will collapse less on bumps. This transfers more of the motorcycle and rider weight rearward, possibly causing the rear suspension to bottom, where as it felt fine before the front fork adjustment was made.
BALANCE TEST
Stand next to the motorcycle on level ground. Place one foot on the footrest closest to you. Sharply push down. The front and rear suspensions should both collapse equally.
BALANCING TIPS
• Check for air pressure build-up in front forks. Heat and altitude will increase air pressure in the front forks.
• Always stay within sag measurement limits, 95 – 105 mm (3.74 – 4.13 in), when using spring pre-set to stiffen or soften rear suspension. If this is not possible, the next stiffer or softer accessory spring is needed.
• The rear shock compression damping can be used to fine tune suspension balance and is easy to access.

CLEANING
WARNING
Some carburetor cleaning chemicals, especially diptype soaking solutions, are very corrosive and must be handled carefully. Always follow the chemical manufacturer’s instructions on proper use, handling and storage.
• Clean all jets with a spray-type carburetor cleaner and dry them using compressed air.
• Clean all circuits of the carburetor thoroughly, not just the perceived problem area. Clean the circuits in the carburetor body with a spray-type cleaner and allow each circuit to soak if necessary to loosen dirt and varnish. Blow the body dry using compressed air.
CAUTION
Do not use a wire to clean the jets or passageways. A wire can damage the jets and passageways. If the components cannot be cleaned with a spray cleaner, it may be necessary to use a dip-type cleaning solution and allow them to soak. Always follow the chemical manufacturer’s instructions for proper use and cleaning on the carburetor components.
• After cleaning, reassemble the carburetor.
CAUTION
Replace the removed O-rings with new ones.
INSPECTION
Check the following parts for damage or clogging. If any damage is found, replace the parts with a new one.
• Throttle valve
• Jet needle
• Hoses
• Floats
• Main jet
• Needle jet holder
• Pilot jet
• Power jet
• Starter knob
FUEL SYSTEM 11-7
11-8 FUEL SYSTEM
NEEDLE VALVE INSPECTION
If foreign matter is caught between the valve seat and the needle valve, the fuel will continue flowing and overflow. If the valve seat and needle valve are worn beyond the permissible limits, similar trouble will occur. Conversely, if the needle valve sticks, the fuel will not flow into the float chamber. Clean the float chamber and float parts with gasoline. If the needle valve is worn, as shown in the illustration, replace it along with a new valve seat.
Clean the fuel passage of the mixing chamber using compressed air.
FLOAT HIGHT ADJUSTMENT
• Measure the float height with the vernier calipers. To measure the float height, tilt the carburetor until the float tip just contacts the needle valve.
