Foreword
This manual is designed primarily for use by trained mechanics in a properly equipped shop.
However, it contains enough detail and basic information to make it useful to the owner who desires to perform his own basic maintenance and repair work. A basic knowledge of mechanics, the proper use of tools, and workshop procedures must be understood in order to carry out maintenance and repair satisfactorily. Whenever the owner has insufficient experience or doubts his ability to do the work, all adjustments, maintenance, and repair should be carried out only by qualified mechanics.
In order to perform the work efficiently and to avoid costly mistakes, read the text, thoroughly familiarize yourself with the procedures before starting work, and then do the work carefully in a clean area. Whenever special tools or equipment are specified, do not use makeshift tools or equipment. Precision measurements can only be made if the proper instruments are used, and the use of substitute tools may adversely affect safe operation.
To get the longest life out of your vehicle:
•
Follow the Periodic Maintenance Chart in the
Service Manual.
•
Be alert for problems and non-scheduled maintenance.
•
Use proper tools and genuine Kawasaki Motorcycle parts.
Special tools, gauges, and testers that are necessary when servicing
Kawasaki motorcycles are introduced by the
Service Manual. Genuine parts provided as spare parts are listed in the Parts Catalog.
•
Follow the procedures in this manual carefully. Don’t take shortcuts.
•
Remember to keep complete records of maintenance and repair with dates and any new parts installed.

1-2 GENERAL INFORMATION
Before Servicing
Before starting to perform an inspection service or carry out a disassembly and reassembly operation on a motorcycle, read the precautions given below. To facilitate actual operations, notes, illustrations, photographs, cautions, and detailed descriptions have been included in each chapter wherever necessary. This section explains the items that require particular attention during the removal and reinstallation or disassembly and reassembly of general parts.
Especially note the following:
Edges of Parts
Lift large or heavy parts wearing gloves to prevent injury from possible sharp edges on the parts.
Solvent
Use a high flash-point solvent when cleaning parts. High flash-point solvent should be used according to directions of the solvent manufacturer.
Cleaning Vehicle before Disassembly
Clean the vehicle thoroughly before disassembly. Dirt or other foreign materials entering into sealed areas during vehicle disassembly can cause excessive wear and decrease performance of the vehicle.
Arrangement and Cleaning of Removed Parts
Disassembled parts are easy to confuse. Arrange the parts according to the order the parts were disassembled and clean the parts in order prior to assembly.
Before Servicing
Storage of Removed Parts
After all the parts including subassembly parts have been cleaned, store the parts in a clean area. Put a clean cloth or plastic sheet over the parts to protect from any foreign materials that may collect before re-assembly.
GENERAL INFORMATION 1-3
Inspection
Reuse of worn or damaged parts may lead to serious accident. Visually inspect removed parts for corrosion, discoloration, or other damage. Refer to the appropriate sections of this manual for service limits on individual parts. Replace the parts if any damage has been found or if the part is beyond its service limit.
Replacement Parts
Replacement parts must be KAWASAKI genuine or recommended by KAWASAKI. Gaskets, O-rings, oil seals, grease seals, circlips, cotter pins or self-locking nuts must be replaced with new ones whenever disassembled.
Assembly Order
In most cases assembly order is the reverse of disassembly, however, if assembly order is provided in this Service
Manual, follow the procedures given.
Tightening Sequence
Generally, when installing a part with several bolts, nuts, or screws, start them all in their holes and tighten them to a snug fit. Then tighten them according to the specified sequence to prevent case warpage or deformation which can lead to malfunction. Conversely when loosening the bolts, nuts, or screws, first loosen all of them by about a quarter turn and then remove them. If the specified tightening sequence is not indicated, tighten the fasteners alternating diagonally.
1-4 GENERAL INFORMATION
Before Servicing
Tightening Torque
Incorrect torque applied to a bolt, nut, or screw may lead to serious damage. Tighten fasteners to the specified torque using a good quality torque wrench.
Often, the tightening sequence is followed twice-initial tightening and final tightening with torque wrench.
Force
Use common sense during disassembly and assembly, excessive force can cause expensive or hard to repair damage. When necessary, remove screws that have a non
-permanent locking agent applied using an impact driver.
Use a plastic-faced mallet whenever tapping is necessary.
Gasket, O-ring
Hardening, shrinkage, or damage of both gaskets and O-rings after disassembly can reduce sealing performance.
Remove old gaskets and clean the sealing surfaces thoroughly so that no gasket material or other material remains. Install new gaskets and replace used
O-rings when re-assembling.
Liquid Gasket, Non-permanent Locking Agent
For applications that require Liquid Gasket or a
Non-permanent Locking Agent, clean the surfaces so that no oil residue remains before applying liquid gasket or non-permanent locking agent. Do not apply them excessively. Excessive application can clog oil passages and cause serious damage.
Press
For items such as bearings or oil seals that must be pressed into place, apply small amount of oil to the contact area. Be sure to maintain proper alignment and use smooth movements when installing.
Before Servicing
Ball Bearing and Needle Bearing
Do not remove pressed ball or needle unless removal is absolutely necessary. Replace with new ones whenever removed. Press bearings with the manufacturer and size marks facing out. Press the bearing into place by putting pressure on the correct bearing race as shown.
Pressing the incorrect race can cause pressure between the inner and outer race and result in bearing damage.
GENERAL INFORMATION 1-5
Oil Seal, Grease Seal
Do not remove pressed oil or grease seals unless removal is necessary. Replace with new ones whenever removed.
Press new oil seals with manufacture and size marks facing out. Make sure the seal is aligned properly when installing.
Apply specified grease to the lip of seal before installing the seal.
Circlips, Cotter Pins
Replace circlips or cotter pins that were removed with new ones. Take care not to open the clip excessively when installing to prevent deformation.
Lubrication
It is important to lubricate rotating or sliding parts during assembly to minimize wear during initial operation. Lubrication points are called out throughout this manual, apply the specific oil or grease as specified.
1-6 GENERAL INFORMATION
Before Servicing
Direction of Engine Rotation
When rotating the crankshaft by hand, the free play amount of rotating direction will affect the adjustment. Rotate the crankshaft to positive direction (clockwise viewed from output side).
Electrical Leads
A two-color lead is identified first by the primary color and then the stripe color. Unless instructed otherwise, electrical leads must be connected to those of the same color.
Instrument
Use a meter that has enough accuracy for an accurate measurement. Read the manufacture’s instructions thoroughly before using the meter. Incorrect values may lead to improper adjustments.

Torque and Locking Agent
Tighten all bolts and nuts to the proper torque using an accurate torque wrench. If insufficiently tightened, a bolt or nut may become damaged, strip an internal thread, or break and then fall out. The following table lists the tightening torque for the major bolts and nuts, and the parts requiring use of a non-permanent locking agent or silicone grease etc.
When checking the tightening torque of the bolts and nuts, first loosen the bolt or nut by half a turn and then tighten to specified torque.
Letters used in the “Remarks” column mean:
AL: Tighten the two clamp bolts alternately two times to ensure even tightening torque.
G: Apply grease.
L: Apply a non-permanent locking agent.
Lh: Left-hand Threads
MO: Apply molybdenum disulfide oil solution.
(mixture of the engine oil and molybdenum disulfide grease in a weight ratio 10:1)
R: Replacement Parts
S: Follow the specified tightening sequence.
Si: Apply silicone grease (ex. PBC grease).
T: First, tighten the stem nut with 39 N·m (4.0 kgf·m, 29 ft·lb) of torque, then loosen it and retighten it with 4.9 N·m (0.50 kgf·m, 43 in·lb) of torque.

Periodic Maintenance Procedures
Fuel System (DFI)
Fuel Hose and Connections Inspection
○
If the motorcycle is not properly handled, the high pressure inside the fuel line can cause fuel to leak [A] or the hose burst. Remove the fuel tank (see Fuel Tank Removal in the Fuel System (DFI) chapter) and check the fuel hose.
Replace the fuel hose if any fraying, cracks [B] or bulges
[C] are noticed.
•
Check that the fuel hose is routed according to Cable,
Wire, and Hose Routing section in the Appendix chapter.
•
When installing the fuel hose, avoid sharp bending, kinking, flattening or twist, and run the fuel hose with a minimum of bending so that fuel flow will not be obstructed.
Replace the hose if it has been sharply bent or kinked.
Throttle Grip (Throttle Cable) Free Play Inspection
•
Check the throttle grip free play [A] by lightly turning the throttle grip [B] back and forth.
Throttle Grip Free Play
Standard: 2
∼
3 mm (0.08
∼
0.12 in.)
If the free play is improper, adjust the throttle cable.
•
Check that the throttle grip moves smoothly from full open to close, and the throttle closes quickly and completely in all steering positions by the return spring.
If the throttle grip does not return properly, check the throttle cable routing, grip free play, and cable damage. Then lubricate the throttle cable.
•
Run the engine at the idle speed, and turn the handlebars all the way to the right and left to ensure that the idle speed does not change.
If the idle speed increase, check the throttle cable free play and the cable routing.
Throttle Grip (Throttle Cable) Free Play
Adjustment
•
Loosen the locknut [A] at the upper end of the throttle cable.
•
Screw the throttle cable adjuster [B] to give the throttle grip plenty of play.
•
Tighten the locknut.
If the throttle grip free play cannot be adjusted with the adjuster, replace the throttle cables.
•
Turn the handlebars from side to side while idling the engine. If idle speed varies, the throttle cable may be poorly routed or it may be damaged.
WARNING
Operation with improperly adjusted, incorrectly routed or damaged cables could result in an unsafe riding condition.
Follow the service manual to make sure to correct any of these conditions.
Periodic Maintenance Procedures
•
Throttle Body Cleaning
Check the throttle bore for cleanliness as follows.
○
Remove the throttle body assy (see Throttle Body Assy
Removal in the Fuel System (DFI) chapter).
○
Check the throttle bore [A] at the throttle valve for carbon deposits by opening the throttle valve.
If any carbon accumulates, wipe the carbon off the throttle bore and the throttle valve, using a lint-free cloth penetrated with a high flash-point solvent.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE 2-15
Fuel Hose Replacement
•
Remove the fuel tank (see Fuel Tank Removal in the Fuel
System (DFI) chapter).
•
Be sure to place a piece of cloth around each fuel hose joint.
•
Wipe off the dirt of the surface [A] around the connection using a cloth or a soft brush.
Throttle Body Assy Side
When removing with standard tip screwdriver:
•
Insert the standard tip screwdriver [A] into the slit [B] on the joint lock [C].
•
Turn the driver to disconnect the joint lock.
When removing with fingers:
•
Open and push up [A] the joint lock [B] with your fingers.
NOTICE
Prying or excessively widening the joint lock ends for fuel hose removal will permanently deform the joint lock, resulting in a loose or incomplete lock that may allow fuel to leak and create the potential for a fire explosion. To prevent fire or explosion from a damaged joint lock, do not pry or excessively widen the joint lock ends when removing the fuel hose. The joint lock has a retaining edge that locks around the housing.
2-16 PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Periodic Maintenance Procedures
•
Pull the fuel hose joint [A] out of the delivery pipe.
WARNING
Fuel is flammable and explosive under certain conditions and can cause severe burns. Be prepared for fuel spillage; any spilled fuel must be completely wiped up immediately. When the fuel hose is disconnected, fuel spills out from the hose and the pipe. Cover the hose connection with a clean shop towel to prevent fuel spillage.
•
Clean the delivery pipe.
•
Cover the delivery pipe with the vinyl bag to keep it clean.
Air Cleaner Side
When removing with standard tip screwdriver:
•
Insert the standard tip screwdriver [A] into the slit [B] on the joint lock [C].
•
Turn the driver to disconnect the joint lock.

Periodic Maintenance Procedures
•
Remove the vinyl bag on each delivery pipe.
•
Check that there are no flaws, burrs, and adhesion of foreign materials on each delivery pipe [A].
•
Replace the fuel hose with a new one.
•
Run the fuel hose correctly (see Cable, Wire, and Hose
Routing section in the Appendix chapter).
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE 2-17
•
Apply engine oil to the fuel outlet pipe [A] lightly.
•
Insert [A] the fuel hose joint [B] straight onto the delivery pipe until the hose joint clicks.

System (DFI) chapter).
•
Start the engine and check the fuel hose for leaks.
Idle Speed Inspection
NOTICE
This motorcycle is designed for competition use only. Therefore, the radiator does not incorporate a coolant reserve tank or cooling fan. Prolonged idling of the engine with no airflow through the radiator can cause coolant loss and engine overheating resulting in possible engine damage. Any riding conditions that increase engine temperature will further reduce idling time before coolant loss occurs.
These conditions include high ambient temperature, sandy or muddy terrain, or other conditions causing high engine loads at low speeds.
Furthermore, warming the engine up excessively before operation, or leaving idling with the hot engine temperature after operation results in the engine overheating, too.
•
Start the engine and warm it up thoroughly.
•
With the engine idling, turn the handlebars to both sides
[A].
If handlebars movement changes the idle speed, the throttle cable may be improperly adjusted or incorrectly routed, or it may be damaged. Be sure to correct any of these conditions before riding (see Cable, Wire, and
Hose Routing section in the Appendix chapter).
WARNING
Operation with improperly adjusted, incorrectly routed or damaged cables could result in an unsafe riding condition.
Follow the service manual to make sure to correct any of these conditions.
Periodic Maintenance Procedures
•
Check the idle speed, using the engine revolution tester
[A] for high accuracy.
If the idle speed is out of specified range, adjust it.
Idle Speed
Standard: 2 050 ±50 r/min (rpm)
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE 2-19
Idle Speed Adjustment
•
Start the engine and warm it up thoroughly.
•
Turn the idle adjusting screw [A] until the idle speed is correct.
To increase idle speed [B]
To decrease idle speed [C]
•
Open and close the throttle a few times to make sure that the idle speed is within the specified range. Readjust if necessary.
Air Cleaner Element Cleaning and Inspection
NOTE
○
In dusty areas, the element should be cleaned more frequently than recommended interval.
○
After riding through rain or on muddy roads, the element should be cleaned immediately.
○
Since repeated cleaning opens the pores of the element, replace it with a new one in accordance with the
Periodic Maintenance Chart. Also, if there is a break in the element material or any other damage to the element, replace the element with a new one.
WARNING
Gasoline and low flash-point solvents can be flammable and/or explosive and cause severe burns. Clean the element in a well-ventilated area, and take care that there is no spark or flame anywhere near the working areas. Do not use gasoline or low flash-point solvents to clean the element.

If the coolant level is low, add coolant through the filler opening to the bottom of the filler neck. Install the cap.
Recommended Coolant
Permanent type antifreeze (soft water and ethylene glycol plus corrosion and rust inhibitor chemicals for aluminum engines and radiators)
Water and Coolant Mixture Ratio
Soft Water: 50%
Coolant: 50%
Freezing Point: –35°C (–31°F)
Total Amount: 1.2 L (1.3 US qt)
NOTICE
For refilling, add the specified mixture of coolant and soft water.
Adding water alone dilutes the coolant and degrades its anticorrosion properties.
The diluted coolant can attack the aluminum engine parts. In an emergency, soft water alone can be added. But the diluted coolant must be returned to the correct mixture ratio within a few days.
Periodic Maintenance Procedures
Coolant Deterioration Inspection
•
Visually inspect the coolant.
If whitish cotton-like wafts are observed, aluminum parts in the cooling system are corroded.
If the coolant is brown, iron or steel parts are rusting. In either case, flush the cooling system.
If the coolant gives off an abnormal smell, check for a cooling system leak. It may be caused by exhaust gas leaking into the cooling system.
Water Hoses and Connections Inspection
•
Remove the radiator shrouds (see Radiator Shroud Removal in the Frame chapter).
○
The high pressure inside the water hoses [A] can cause coolant to leak [B] or the hose to burst if the line is not properly maintained. Visually inspect the hoses for signs of deterioration. Squeeze the hoses. A hose should not be hard and brittle, nor should it be soft or swollen.
Replace the hose if any fraying, cracks [C] or bulges [D] are noticed.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE 2-27
Cylinder Inside Diameter
Standard: 77.000
∼
77.012 mm (3.0315
∼
3.0320
in.), and less than 0.01 mm (0.0004
in.) difference between any two measurements.
Service Limit: 77.10 mm (3.035 in.), or more than 0.05

If any of the cylinder inside diameter measurements exceeds the service limit, the cylinder must be replaced with a new one.
○
Since the PLATING cylinder cannot be bored or honed.
Piston/Cylinder Clearance Inspection
The piston/cylinder clearance is measured whenever a piston or cylinder is replaced with a new one. The standard piston/cylinder clearance must be adhered to whenever the cylinder is replaced.
If only a piston is replaced, the clearance may exceed the standard slightly. But it must be within the standard, in order to avoid piston seizure.
The most accurate way to find the piston clearance is by making separate piston and cylinder diameter measurements and then computing the difference between the two values. Measure the piston diameter as just described, and measure the cylinder diameter at the very bottom of the cylinder.
Piston/Cylinder Clearance
Standard: 0.041

∼
68 mm (2.4
∼
2.7 in.) of slack whenever necessary.
2-38 PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Periodic Maintenance Procedures
Drive Chain Lubrication
○
The chain should be lubricated with a lubricant which will both prevent the exterior from rusting and also absorb shock and reduce friction in the interior of the chain.
If the chain is especially dirty, it should be washed in diesel oil or kerosene, and afterward soaked in a heavy oil. Shake the chain while it is in the oil so that oil will penetrate into the inside of each roller.
•
An effective, good quality lubricant specially formulated for chains is best for regular chain lubrication.
•
If a special lubricant is not available, a heavy oil such as
SAE90 is preferred to a lighter oil because it will stay on the chain longer and provide better lubrication.
•
Apply oil to the sides of the rollers so that oil will penetrate into the rollers and bushings.
•
Wipe off any excess oil.
Oil Applied Area [A]
Sprocket Wear Inspection
•
Visually inspect the front and rear sprocket teeth for wear and damage.
If they are worn as illustrated or damaged, replace the sprocket, and inspect the drive chain wear.

Periodic Maintenance Procedures
Brake Fluid Level Inspection
•
Check the brake fluid level in the front or rear brake reservoir [A] and the front or rear reservoir must be kept above the lower level line [B].
NOTE
○
Hold the reservoir horizontal when checking brake fluid level.
If the fluid level in front or rear reservoir is lower than the lower level line, fill the reservoir to the upper level line.
•
Inside the reservoir is stopped end showing the upper level line [C].
WARNING
Mixing brands and types of brake fluid can reduce the brake system’s effectiveness and cause an accident resulting in injury or death. Do not mix two brands of brake fluid. Change the brake fluid in the brake line completely if the brake fluid must be refilled but the type and brand of the brake fluid that is already in the reservoir are unidentified.
Periodic Maintenance Procedures
Brake Fluid Change
WARNING
When working with the disc brake, observe the precautions listed below.
1. Never reuse old brake fluid.
2. Do not use fluid from a container that has been left unsealed or that has been open for a long time.
3. Do not mix two types and brands of fluid for use in the brake. This lowers the brake fluid boiling point and could cause the brake to be ineffective. It may also cause the rubber brake parts to deteriorate.
4. Don’t leave the reservoir cap off for any length of time to avoid moisture contamination of the fluid.
5. Don’t change the fluid in the rain or when a strong wind is blowing.
6. Except for the disc pads and disc, use only disc brake fluid, isopropyl alcohol, or ethyl alcohol for cleaning of the brake parts. Do not use any other fluid for cleaning these parts. Gasoline, engine oil, or any other petroleum distillate will cause deterioration of the rubber parts.
Oil spilled on any part will be difficult to wash off completely and will eventually deteriorate the rubber used in the disc brake.
7. When handling the disc pads or disc, be careful that no disc brake fluid or any oil gets on them.
Clean off any fluid or oil that inadvertently gets on the pads or disc with a high flash-point solvent. Do not use one which will leave an oily residue. Replace the pads with new ones if they cannot be cleaned satisfactorily.
8. Brake fluid quickly ruins painted surfaces; any spilled fluid should be completely wiped up immediately.
9. If any of the brake line fittings or the bleed valve is opened at any time, the AIR MUST BE BLED
FROM THE BRAKE LINE.

DFI Servicing Precautions
DFI Servicing Precautions
There are a number of important precautions that should be followed servicing the DFI system.
○
Connect these connectors until they click [A].
○
Never any of the DFI electrical connectors are disconnected. The ECU memorizes service codes.
○
Do not spray water on the electrical parts, DFI parts, connectors, leads and wiring.
○
When any fuel hose is disconnected, do not start the engine. The fuel pump will operate and fuel will spout from the fuel hose.
○
Do not operate the fuel pump if it is completely dry. This is to prevent pump seizure.
○
Before removing the fuel system parts, blow the outer surfaces of these parts clean with compressed air.
○
When any fuel hose is disconnected, fuel may spout out by residual pressure in the fuel line. Cover the hose joint with a piece of clean cloth to prevent fuel spillage.
○
When installing the fuel hoses, avoid sharp bending, kinking, flattening or twisting, and run the fuel hoses with a minimum of bending so that the fuel flow will not be obstructed.
○
Run the hoses according to Cable, Wire, and Hose Routing section in the Appendix chapter.
○
To prevent corrosion and deposits in the fuel system, do not add to fuel any fuel antifreeze chemicals to fuel.
○
If the motorcycle is not properly handled, the high pressure inside the fuel line can cause fuel to leak or the hose to burst. Remove the fuel tank (see Fuel Tank Removal) and check the fuel hoses [A].
Replace the fuel hose if any fraying, cracks or bulges are noticed.
○
To maintain the correct fuel/air mixture (F/A), there must be no intake air leaks in the DFI system. Be sure to install the oil filler plug [A] after filling the engine oil.

Troubleshooting the DFI System
Outline
When an abnormality in the system occurs, the condition of the problem is stored in the memory of the ECU (Electronic Control Unit). With the engine stopped and conduct a self-diagnosis inspection, the service code is indicated by the number of times the orange FI warning indicator light
(LED) (option) blinks.
Ask the rider about the conditions [A] under which the problem occurred and try to determine the cause [B].
•
First, conduct a self-diagnosis inspection and then a non
-self-diagnosis inspection. The non-self-diagnosis items are not indicated by the orange FI warning indicator light
(LED). Don’t rely solely on the DFI self-diagnosis function, use common sense.
If the orange FI warning indicator light (LED) goes on by kicking the kick pedal about 10 times, these parts are broken.
Even when the DFI system is operating normally, the orange FI warning indicator light (LED) may light up under strong electrical interference. No repair needed.
When the orange FI warning indicator light (LED) goes on and the motorcycle is brought in for repair, check the service codes.
When the repair has been done, the light doesn’t go on.
But the service codes stored in memory are not erased to preserve the problem history, and the light can display the codes in the self-diagnosis mode. The problem history is referred when solving unstable problems.
Much of the DFI system troubleshooting work consists of confirming continuity of the wiring. The DFI parts are assembled and adjusted with precision, and it is impossible to disassemble or repair them.
FUEL SYSTEM (DFI) 3-19
3-20 FUEL SYSTEM (DFI)
Troubleshooting the DFI System
•
When checking the DFI parts, use a digital meter which can be read two decimal place voltage or resistance.
○
The DFI part connectors [A] have seals [B], including the
ECU. When measuring the input or output voltage with the connector joined, use the needle adapter set [C]. Insert the needle adapter inside the seal until the needle adapter reaches the terminal.
Special Tool - Needle Adapter Set: 57001-1457
NOTICE
Insert the needle adapter straight along the terminal in the connector to prevent short-circuit between terminals.
•
Make sure that measuring points are correct in the connector, noting the position of the lock [D] and the lead color before measurement. Do not reverse connections of a digital meter.
•
Be careful not to short-circuit the leads of the DFI or electrical system parts by contact between adapters.
•
Connect the power supply harness (option P/No. 26011
-0246) and the battery to the capacitor lead connector, and measure the voltage with the connector joined.
NOTICE
Incorrect, reverse connection or short circuit by needle adapters could damage the DFI or electrical system parts.
○
After measurement, remove the needle adapters and apply sealant to the seals [A] of the connector [B] for waterproofing.
Sealant - Liquid Gasket, TB1211: 56019-120
•
Always check the connected battery condition before replacing the DFI parts. A fully charged battery is a must for conducting accurate tests of the DFI system.
•
Trouble may involve one or in some cases all items.
Never replace a defective part without determining what
CAUSED the problem. If the problem was caused by some other item or items, they too must be repaired or replaced, or the new replacement part will soon fail again.
•
Measure coil winding resistance when the DFI part is cold
(at room temperature).
•
Make sure all connectors in the circuit are clean and tight, and examine leads for signs of burning, fraying, short, etc. Deteriorated leads and bad connections can cause reappearance of problems and unstable operation of the
DFI system.
If any wiring is deteriorated, replace the wiring.
Troubleshooting the DFI System
•
Pull each connectors [A] apart and inspect it for corrosion, dirt, and damage.
If the connector is corroded or dirty, clean it carefully. If it
• is damaged, replace it. Connect them securely.
Check the wiring for continuity.
○
Use the wiring diagram to find the ends of the lead which is suspected of being a problem.
○
Connect the hand tester between the ends of the leads.
Special Tool - Hand Tester: 57001-1394
○
Set the tester to the × 1
Ω range, and read the tester.
If the tester does not read 0
Ω
, the lead is defective. Replace the lead or the main harness.
○
If both ends of a harness [A] are far apart, ground [B] the one end [C], using a jumper lead [D] and check the continuity between the end [E] and the ground [F]. This enables to check a long harness for continuity. If the harness is open, repair or replace the harness.
FUEL SYSTEM (DFI) 3-21
○
When checking a harness [A] for short circuit, open one end [B] and check the continuity between the other end
[C] and ground [D]. If there is continuity, the harness has a short circuit to ground, and it must be repaired or replaced.
•
Narrow down suspicious locations by repeating the continuity tests from the ECU connectors.
If no abnormality is found in the wiring or connectors, the
DFI parts are the next likely suspects. Check the part, starting with input and output voltages. However, there is no way to check the ECU itself.
If an abnormality is found, replace the affected DFI part.
If no abnormality is found in the wiring, connectors, and
DFI parts, replace the ECU.

Self-Diagnosis
Note:
(1) D-J Method and
α
-N Method: When the engine load is light like at idling or low speed, the ECU determines the injection quantity by calculating from the throttle vacuum (intake air pressure sensor output voltage) and engine speed (crankshaft sensor output voltage). This method is called
D-J method (low-speed mode). As the engine speed increases, and the engine load turns middle to heavy, the ECU determines the injection quantity by calculating from the throttle opening (throttle sensor output voltage) and the engine speed. This method is called
α
-N method (high-speed mode).
Throttle Sensor (Service Code 11)
The throttle sensor is a rotating variable resistor that change output voltage according to throttle operating.
The ECU senses this voltage change and determines fuel injection quantity, and ignition timing according to engine rpm, and throttle opening.

Pv = Pl – Pg
For example, suppose the following data is obtained:
Pg = 8 cmHg (Vacuum Gauge Reading)
Pl = 70 cmHg (Barometer Reading)
Vv = 3.2 V (Digital Meter Reading) then
Pv = 70 – 8 = 62 cmHg (Absolute)

Refer to the Coolant Level Inspection in the Periodic Maintenance chapter.
Coolant Deterioration Inspection
•
Refer to the Coolant Deterioration Inspection in the Periodic Maintenance chapter.
Coolant Draining
WARNING
Coolant can be extremely hot and cause severe burns, is toxic and very slippery. Do not remove the radiator cap or attempt to change the coolant when the engine is hot; allow it cool completely.
Immediately wipe any spilled coolant from tires, frame, engine or other painted parts. Do not ingest coolant.
NOTICE
The coolant should be changed periodically to ensure long engine life.
•
Remove:
Right Radiator Shroud (see Radiator Shroud Removal in the Frame chapter)

Coolant
Coolant Filling
NOTICE
Use coolant containing corrosion inhibitors made specifically for aluminum engines and radiators in accordance with the instruction of the manufacture’s. Soft or distilled water must be used with the antifreeze (see below for antifreeze) in the cooling system.
If hard water is used in the system, it causes scale accumulation in the water passages, and considerably reduces the efficiency of the cooling system.

Cooling System Pressure Testing
NOTICE
During pressure testing, do not exceed the pressure for which the system is designed to work. The maximum pressure is 123 kPa (1.25 kgf/cm², 18 psi).
•
Remove the radiator cap, and install a cooling system pressure tester [A] and adapter [B] on the radiator filler neck [C].
NOTE
○
Wet the adapter cap sealing surfaces with water or coolant to prevent pressure leaks.
•
Build up pressure in the system carefully until the pressure reaches 123 kPa (1.25 kgf/cm², 18 psi).
•
Watch the gauge for at least 6 seconds.
If the pressure holds steady, the cooling system is all right.
If the pressure drops and no external source is found, check for internal leaks. Check the cylinder head gasket for leaks.
•
Remove the pressure tester, replenish the coolant, and install the radiator cap.
Cooling System Flushing
Over a period of time, the cooling system accumulates rust, scale, and lime in the water jacket and radiator. When this accumulation is suspected or observed, flush the cooling system. If this accumulation is not removed, it will clog up the water passages and considerably reduce the efficiency of the cooling system.
•
Drain the cooling system (see Coolant Draining).
•
Fill the cooling system with fresh water mixed with a flushing compound.
NOTICE
Avoid the use of a flushing compound which is harmful to the aluminum engine and radiators.

Camshaft Chain Tensioner Removal
NOTICE
This is a non-return type camshaft chain tensioner.
The push rod does not return to its original position once it moves out to take up camshaft chain slack.
Observe all the rules listed below:
When removing the tensioner, do not take out the mounting bolts only halfway.
Retightening the mounting bolts from this position could damage the tensioner and the camshaft chain. Once the bolts are loosened, the tensioner must be removed and reset as described in “Camshaft Chain Tensioner Installation”.
Do not turn over the crankshaft while the tensioner is removed. This could upset the camshaft chain timing and damage the valves.

Seat Cutter Operation Care
1. This valve seat cutter is developed to grind the valve for repair. Therefore the cutter must not be used for other purposes than seat repair.
2. Do not drop or shock the valve seat cutter, or the diamond particles may fall off.
3. Do not fail to apply engine oil to the valve seat cutter before grinding the seat surface. Also wash off ground particles sticking to the cutter with washing oil.
NOTICE
Do not use a wire brush to remove the metal particles from the cutter. It will take off the diamond particles.
4. Setting the valve seat cutter holder in position, operate the cutter in one hand. Do not apply too much force to the diamond portion.
NOTE
○
Prior to grinding, apply engine oil to the cutter and during the operation, wash off any ground particles sticking to the cutter with washing oil.
5. After use, wash it with washing oil and apply thin layer of engine oil before storing.
Marks Stamped on the Cutter
The marks stamped on the back of the cutter [A] represent the following.

Repair Operating Procedures
•
Clean the seat area carefully.
•
Coat the seat with machinist’s dye.
•
Fit a 45° cutter into the holder and slide it into the valve guide.
•
Press down lightly on the handle and turn it right or left.
Grind the seating surface only until it is smooth.
NOTICE
Do not grind the seat too much. Overgrinding will reduce valve clearance by sinking the valve into the head. If the valve sinks too far into the head, it will be impossible to adjust the clearance, and the cylinder head must be replaced.

Original Seating Surface [B]
NOTE
○
Remove all pittings of flaws from 45° ground surface.
○
After grinding with 45° cutter, apply thin coat of machinist’s dye to seating surface. This makes seating surface distinct and 32° and 60° grinding operation easier.
○
When the valve guide is replaced, be sure to grind with
45° cutter for centering and good contact.
If the outside diameter [A] of the seating surface is too large, make the 32° [B] grind described below.
If the outside diameter of the seating surface is within the specified range, measure the seat width as described below.
•
Grind the seat at a 32° angle until the seat outside diameter is within the specified range.
○
To make the 32° grind, fit a 32° cutter into the holder, and slide it into the valve guide.
○
Turn the holder one turn at a time while pressing down very lightly. Check the seat after each turn.
NOTICE
The 32° cutter removes material very quickly.
Check the seat outside diameter frequently to prevent overgrinding.
○
After making the 32° grind, return to the seat outside diameter measurement step above.
•
To measure the seat width, use a vernier caliper to measure the width of the 45° angle portion of the seat at several places around the seat.
If the seat width is too narrow, repeat the 45° grind until the seat is slightly too wide, and then return to the seat outside diameter measurement step above.

Vehicle operation with insufficient, deteriorated, or contaminated engine oil will cause accelerated wear and may result in engine seizure, accident, and injury. Check the oil level before each use and change the oil and filter according to the periodic maintenance chart.
The engine oil level indicated in the oil level inspection window is very sensitive to the motorcycle’s position and engine rpm at time of shut down. Because of the semi-dry sump lubrication system with separate oil chambers in the crank room and transmission room, under certain conditions oil can accumulate in the crank room and give a false low reading at the oil level inspection window, which indicates oil volume in the transmission room.
Engine Oil Level Inspection
•
Situate the motorcycle so that it is vertical.
•
Check that the engine oil level is between the upper [A] and lower [B] levels in the inspection window [C].
NOTE
○
If the motorcycle has just been used, wait several minutes for all the oil to drain down.
○
If no oil appears in the inspection window, tip the motorcycle slightly to the right until oil is visible then return to an upright position. If no oil appears even when tipped at an extreme angle, remove the drain bolt to empty any oil, reinstall the drain bolt and refill with the specified amount of oil.
○
If the oil has just been changed, start the engine and run it for several minutes at idle speed. This fills the oil filter with oil.
○
Do not run the engine at high engine speed. Stop the engine, then wait several minutes until the oil settles.
NOTICE
Racing the engine before the oil reaches every part can cause engine seizure.
If the oil level is too high, remove the excess oil through the filler opening, using a syringe or some other suitable device.
If the oil level is too low, add the correct amount of oil through the oil filler opening. Use the same type and make of oil that is already in the engine.
NOTE
○
If the engine oil type and make are unknown, use any brand of the specified oil to top off the level rather than running the engine with the oil level low. Then at your earliest convenience, change the oil completely.

Brake Fluid
WARNING
When working with the disc brake, observe the precautions listed below.
1. Never reuse old brake fluid.
2. Do not use fluid from a container that has been left unsealed or that has been open for a long time.
3. Do not mix two types and brands of fluid for use in the brake. This lowers the brake fluid boiling point and could cause the brake to be ineffective. It may also cause the rubber brake parts to deteriorate.
4. Don’t leave the reservoir cap off for any length of time to avoid moisture contamination of the fluid.
5. Don’t change the fluid in the rain or when a strong wind is blowing.
6. Except for the disc pads and disc, use only disc brake fluid, isopropyl alcohol, or ethyl alcohol for cleaning of the brake parts. Do not use any other fluid for cleaning these parts. Gasoline, engine oil, or any other petroleum distillate will cause deterioration of the rubber parts.
Oil spilled on any part will be difficult to wash off completely and will eventually deteriorate the rubber used in the disc brake.
7. When handling the disc pads or disc, be careful that no disc brake fluid or any oil gets on them.
Clean off any fluid or oil that inadvertently gets on the pads or disc with a high flash-point solvent. Do not use one which will leave an oily residue. Replace the pads with new ones if they cannot be cleaned satisfactorily.
8. Brake fluid quickly ruins painted surfaces; any spilled fluid should be completely wiped up immediately.
9. If any of the brake line fittings or the bleed valve is opened at any time, the AIR MUST BE BLED
FROM THE BRAKE LINE.
Brake Fluid Level Inspection
•
Refer to the Brake Fluid Level Inspection in the Periodic
Maintenance chapter.
Brake Fluid Change
•
Refer to the Brake Fluid Change in the Periodic Maintenance chapter.
Brake Fluid
Brake Line Bleeding
The brake fluid has a very low compression coefficient so that almost all the movement of the brake lever or pedal is transmitted directly to the caliper for braking action. Air, however, is easily compressed. When air enters the brake lines, brake lever or pedal movement will be partially used in compressing the air. This will make the lever or pedal feel spongy, and there will be a loss in braking power.
WARNING
Air in the brake lines diminish braking performance and can cause an accident resulting in injury or death. If the brake lever has a soft or "spongy" feeling mushy when it is applied, there might be air in the brake lines or the brake may be defective. Do not operate the vehicle and service the brake system immediately.
NOTE
○
The procedure to bleed the front brake line is as follows.
Bleeding the rear brake line is the same as for the front brake.
•
Level the brake fluid reservoir.
•
Remove:
Screws [A]
Reservoir Cap [B]
Diaphragm
•
Check that there is plenty of fluid in the reservoir.
•
Slowly pump the brake lever several times until no air bubbles rise up from the bottom of the reservoir.
○
Bleed the air completely from the master cylinder by this operation.
•
Remove the rubber cap [A] from the bleed valve on the caliper.
•
Attach a clear plastic hose [B] to the bleed valve on the caliper, and run the other end of the hose into a container.
BRAKES 12-11

Brake Fluid
•
Bleed the brake line and caliper as follows:
○
Repeat this operation until no more air can be seen coming out into the clear plastic hose.
1. Pump the brake lever until it becomes hard, and apply the brake and hold it [A].
2. Quickly open and close [B] the bleed valve while holding the brake applied.
3. Release the brake [C].
NOTE
○
The fluid level must be checked often during the bleeding operation and replenished with fresh brake fluid as necessary. If the fluid in the reservoir runs almost out any time during bleeding operation, the bleeding operation must be done over again from the beginning since air will have entered the line.
○
Tap the brake hose lightly from the caliper to the reservoir for easier bleeding.
•
Remove the clear plastic hose.
•
Tighten the bleed valve, and install the rubber cap.
Torque - Caliper Bleed Valve: 7.8 N·m (0.80 kgf·m, 69 in·lb)
•
Check the fluid level (see Brake Fluid Level Inspection in the Periodic Maintenance chapter).
•
Install the diaphragm and reservoir cap.
•
Tighten:
Torque - Brake Reservoir Cap Screws: 1.5 N·m (0.15 kgf·m,
13 in·lb)
•
After bleeding is done, check the brake for good braking power, no brake drag, and no fluid leakage.
WARNING
After servicing, it takes several applications of the brake lever before the brake pads contact the disc, which could result in increased stopping distance and cause an accident resulting in injury or death.
Do not attempt to ride the motorcycle until a firm brake lever is obtained by pumping the lever until the pads are against the disc.

Fluid Seal Damage Inspection
The fluid seal(s) [A] around the piston maintains the proper pad/disc clearance. If this seal is not in good condition, pad wear will increase, and constant pad drag on the disc will raise brake and brake fluid temperature.
•
Replace the fluid seals under any of the following conditions.
○
Fluid leakage around the pad
○
Brakes overheat
○
There is a large difference in left and right pad wear.
○
The seal is stuck to the piston.
If the fluid seal(s) is replaced, replace the dust seal(s) [B] as well. Also, replace all seals every other time the pads are changed.

Precautions
There are numbers of important precautions that are musts when servicing electrical systems. Learn and observe all the rules below.
○
The electrical parts should never be struck sharply, as with a hammer, or allowed to fall on a hard surface. Such a shock to the parts can damage them.
○
To prevent damage to electrical parts, do not disconnect any electrical connections while the engine is running.
○
Troubles may involve one or in some cases all items.
Never replace a defective part without determining what
CAUSED the failure. If the failure was caused by some other item or items, they too must be repaired or replaced, or the new replacement will soon fail again.
○
Make sure all connectors in the circuit are clean and tight, and examine leads for signs of burning, fraying, etc. Poor leads and bad connections will affect electrical system operation.
○
Measure coil and winding resistance when the part is cold
(at room temperature).
Electrical Wiring
Wiring Inspection
•
Visually inspect the wiring for signs of burning, fraying, etc.
If any wiring is poor, replace the damaged wiring.
•
Pull each connector [A] apart and inspect it for corrosion, dirt, and damage.
If the connector is corroded or dirty, clean it carefully. If it
• is damaged, replace it.
Check the wiring for continuity.
○
Use the wiring diagram to find the ends of the lead which is suspected of being a problem.
○
Connect the hand tester between the ends of the leads.
Special Tool - Hand Tester: 57001-1394
○
Set the tester to the × 1
Ω range, and read the tester.
If the tester does not read 0
Ω
, the lead is defective. Replace the lead or the wiring harness if necessary.

Flywheel Inspection
There are three types of magneto problems: short, open
(lead burned out), or loss in flywheel magnetism. A short or open in one of the coil leads will result in either a low output, or no output at all. A loss in flywheel magnetism, which may be caused by dropping or hitting the flywheel by leaving it near an electromagnetic field, or just by aging, will result in low output.
NOTE

If there is more resistance than shown in the table, or no hand tester reading (infinity), the stator has an open lead and must be replaced. Much less than this resistance means the stator is shorted, and must be replaced.
•
Using the highest resistance range of the hand tester, measure the resistance between each leads and chassis ground.
Any hand tester reading less than infinity (
∞
) indicates a short, necessitating stator replacement.
If the stator coil has normal resistance, but the voltage check showed the magneto to be defective; then the flywheel have probably weakened, and the flywheel must be replaced.

Ignition Coil Inspection
Measuring Arcing Distance
The most accurate test for determining the condition of the ignition coil is made by measuring arcing distance using the coil tester for the 3-needle method.
•
Remove the ignition coil (see Ignition Coil Removal).
•
Measure the arcing distance using the coil tester [A].
•
Connect the ignition coil (with the spark plug cap left installed on the spark plug lead) [B] to the tester and measure the arcing distance.
WARNING
To avoid extremely high voltage shocks, do not touch the coil or lead.
If the distance reading is less than the specified value, the ignition coil or spark plug cap is defective.
3 Needle Arcing Distance
Standard: 7 mm (0.28 in.) or more
•
To determine which part is defective, measure the arcing distance again with the spark plug cap removed from the spark plug lead.
If the arcing distance is subnormal as before, the trouble is with the ignition coil itself. If the arcing distance is now normal, the trouble is with the spark plug cap.
Measuring Coil Resistance
If the arcing tester is not available, the coil can be checked for a broken or badly shorted winding with the hand tester.
However, the hand tester cannot detect layer shorts and shorts resulting from insulation breakdown under high voltage.
Special Tool - Hand Tester: 57001-1394
