Emission Control Warranty Statement ....................................................Page 8

Congratulations on purchasing an S&S® engine! Your new engine is designed and manufactured with the same care and attention to detail as those used to set speed records and win races around the world.

This manual has been prepared to acquaint you with the operation, care, and required maintenance of your engine. It also notifies you of important safety information and provides authorized service personnel with necessary emissions control specifications. Other S&S publications discuss repairs and/or changes to the engine configuration. For information related to other components and systems on the motorcycle consult the manufacturer’s manuals.

This engine conforms to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the State of California applicable exhaust gas and evaporative emissions regulations effective on the date of manufacture. A small volume motorcycle manufacturer, kit manufacturer or assembler may use this engine without applying for a separate emission certificate.

Per the tampering and defeat device prohibitions, under the Clean Air Act and California State law, it is illegal to remove or render inoperative any device or element of an emissions control system, or to install any part or component that would bypass, defeat, or render inoperative any device or element of design installed on the vehicle under the Clean Air Act or California State law regulations. This includes but is not limited to any changes made to camshafts, fuel metering system, ignition, exhaust system or evaporative system.

ENGINE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER

The Engine Identification Number (EIN) is stamped on the left side of the crankcase below the front cylinder deck, and on the right side immediately forward of the front tappet guide. It consists of a seven-character code (see example below). The first and last characters are stars (*). The second character is a letter that designates the code for the model year of the engine. The final four characters before the star are the crankcase serial/ sequence number for that year. Some serial numbers will contain an eighth character between the year code and serial number.

Example: *G1234* represents crankcase sequence number 1234 that it was made in 2006.

CONTROLS AND GAUGES

The starter, key switch, engine-stop switch, throttle control grip, tachometer (if available), speedometer, oil pressure gauge, voltmeter, and fuel gauge are discussed in detail in the motorcycle owner’s manual.

Enrichment Device

The carburetor uses a mixture enrichment device instead of a choke, but it is operated in a similar manner. During starting and operation before the engine is warmed up, the lever located on the upper side of the air cleaner should be pulled up. When the engine is sufficiently warm, as described in the OPERATION section, the enrichment device lever is be pushed down.

Petcock

The petcock is located under the fuel tank as described in the motorcycle owner’s manual. On some motorcycles, the petcock operates automatically; on others, manual operation is required.

WARNING

Motorcycles with manual-operated petcock: petcock should always be closed when engine is not running to prevent accidental overflow of gasoline and possible fire hazard or damage to engine.

Further information about the petcock may be found in the motorcycle owner’s manual.

OPERATION

Engine Speed and Load

CAUTION

Exceeding 6,250 RPM under any circumstances may damage the engine.

An engine that is run long distances at high speed or under heavy load may overheat. Oil and spark plugs should be inspected more frequently when the engine is subjected to extreme temperatures.

Idle Speed

CAUTION

Do not idle engine more than five minutes with motorcycle stationary. Overheating may result.

Normal warm idle speed is 1,050 RPM. When the enrichment device lever is pulled up with a cold engine, the idle will be higher.

Oil Pressure

Engine oil pressure varies from 5 psi (.34 bar) at idle to 12-15 psi (.83-1 bar) at 50 mph (80 km/h) when the engine is at normal operating temperature.

Altitude

The engine should operate correctly between sea level and 3,000 feet without further adjustment. For operation above 3,000 feet see your authorized

S&S dealer for proper carburetor adjustments.

Engine Break-In

During the first 500 miles of operation, critical parts are “breaking-in” against each other. For this reason:

1- Avoid excessive heat build-up. Do not allow engine to idle for long periods of time.

2- Keep the outside of the engine clean.

3- Do not subject engine to unusual stress or load as with sidecar or trailer.

4- Avoid hard acceleration until the engine is warmed up.

5- Do not lug the engine. Vary the engine speed; avoid maintaining a steady speed for long distances.

First 50 Miles (80 Kilometers) –

1- Without lugging the motor, do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h).

2- Keep the engine speed below 2,500 RPM.

3- Change the oil and filter at 50 miles (80 kilometers).

Up to 500 Miles ( 800 Kilometers) –

1- Do not exceed 65 mph (105 km/h).

2- Keep the engine speed below 3,000 RPM.

3- Change the oil and filter at 500 miles (800 kilometers).

Up to 2,500 Miles (4000 Kilometers) –

1- Keep the engine speed below 3,500 RPM.

For motorcycles not equipped with tachometers, the following table may be used as a guide for estimating the engine RPM in each gear based on the road speed.

Pre-ride Checklist

Before riding, or with each tank of gas, confirm that your motorcycle is in good operating condition. The motorcycle owner’s manual has specific information regarding this subject.

To ensure safe, reliable engine operation:

1- Check oil level in oil tank.

2- Check for oil and fuel leaks.

Starting and Warm-Up

General:

1- Before starting engine, shift transmission into neutral.

2- Never allow engine to exceed 2,500 RPM immediately after cold start. Engine should be run slowly for 15 to 30 seconds. This allows engine to warm up, and oil to reach all surfaces requiring lubrication.

3- Idling with enrichment device lever in full-out position for longer than 30 seconds is not recommended. Lever may be set in intermediate position if engine will not run smoothly with it pushed all the way in.

4- Use oil meeting recommendations found in maintenance section of this owner’s manual for expected ambient temperature range and type of operation.

Cool Engine:

1- Open petcock if it is manual type.

2- Pull enrichment device lever to raised position.

3- Twist throttle one or two times.

4- Close throttle.

5- Turn Key to IGNITION.

6- Turn Engine-Stop Switch to RUN.

7- Press Start Switch.

8- After engine starts, adjust enrichment lever depending on ambient temperature: a- Below 70°F (21°C) - Push enrichment lever in as engine warms. If idle becomes slow or rough, pull lever up slightly. Enrichment lever should be pushed in completely after not more than 60 seconds of operation. b- 70°F (21°C) or Warmer - Push enrichment lever completely in after 10 to 30 seconds of operation.

Warm or Hot Engine:

1- Open petcock if it is manual type.

2- Pull enrichment lever to fully raised position.

3- Turn Key to IGNITION.

4- Turn Engine-Stop Switch to RUN.

5- Press Start Switch.

6- After engine starts, immediately push enrichment lever completely in.

For normal riding, the recommended shifting procedure to lower gears while decelerating is:

1- Disengage clutch.

2- As motorcycle slows, shift into appropriate gear for beginning next mode of operation.

3- When slowing to a stop, the clutch should be disengaged when: a- The motorcycle speed drops below approximately 15 mph (24 km/h). b- Rough engine operation is evident. c- When the engine is lugging.

4

The motorcycle should be shifted into neutral if it is going to be shut off or kept at an idle for more than a few seconds.

MAINTENANCE

To maintain your new engine warranty and to assure proper emissions system operation, regular inspections and servicing must be performed.

Periodic

The motorcycle should be checked frequently (for example, with each tank of gasoline) for fuel or oil leaks and oil level. After the engine is warm, the idle speed may occasionally require minor adjustment. The air cleaner should be inspected every few hundred miles. See the motorcycle owner’s manual for other recommended periodic maintenance.

During Break-In

At 50 Miles (80 Kilometers):

1- Change engine oil and filter.

2- Inspect for fuel and oil leaks.

3- Inspect air cleaner element and service as required.

4- Check tightness of exterior fasteners, except head bolts.

Engine Maintenance at 500 Miles (800 Kilometers):

Notes: • Use only API SG or SH rated oil. • S&S recommends regular oil changes every 1,000 miles (1600 kilometers) when using petroleum-based oil not specifically formulated for motorcycles.

NOTE: S&S® recommends using Mobil 1 V-Twin synthetic oil. S&S recommends regular oil changes every 1,000 miles (1,600 kilometers) when using petroleum-based oil not specifically formulated for motorcycles.

Checking, Adding & Changing Engine Oil

See the motorcycle owner’s manual for information on how to check, add, and change the oil and filter.

Hydraulic Lifter Oil Filter Screen

The access screw for this screen is located on the right side of the crankcase, beside the rear tappet block. Carefully remove the screw to expose the spring and filter screen. Remove the spring and filter screen from the crankcase. Clean or replace the screen. Reinstall the screen (open end down), spring, and screw.

Gas Tank Fuel Stainer & In-Line

Inspect and clean the gas tank fuel strainer according to the motorcycle owner’s manual. If an in-line filter is used (recommended), it should be replaced or cleaned according to manufacturer’s specifications.

Carburetor

The carburetor has been specifically set up for emissions control. All jets are fixed at the factory.

Idle Speed Adjustment

1- Operate motorcycle until engine is warmed up (typically 15 minutes).

2- The idle speed adjustment screw is located on top of the carburetor just under the throttle cable guide. Use a long, blade-type screwdriver to adjust the idle speed to 1,050 RPM.

Air Cleaner Element

The air cleaner element comes pre-oiled and does not need to be oiled before use. The element should be replaced every 5,000 miles (8,000 kilometers). If the element is torn, punctured, or has excessive oil build-up replace the element.

CAUTION

A damaged, torn, punctured, or crushed element may allow unfiltered air to enter the engine. In the event of a damaged air cleaner element, replace element immediately.

Replacement

1- Remove air cleaner cover and filter element from the backplate.

2- Install the filter element by stretching the smaller diameter around the hub of the backplate. It should be a tight fit. If not, turn it around.

6

WARNING

Improper installation of the filter could impede the rotation of the valve and cause the SAC not to function. Be sure that the smaller diameter of the filter is installed on the hub of the backplate.

3- Check to ensure that the cover o-ring is properly installed in the backplate groove. Apply BLUE Loctite® (242) to the 3 ¼-20 x 1” Phillips oval head screws. Install the cover with the three screws and tighten until they bottom out.

Hydraulic Lifters

Hydraulic lifters are self-adjusting. They automatically adjust length to compensate for engine expansion and valve train wear, keeping the valve train free of lash while the engine is running. When starting the engine, the valve train may be noisy until the lifters refill with oil. If the valve train remains noisy after twenty minutes of operation, this may be an indication that one or more of the lifters is not functioning properly. Remove and clean the hydraulic lifter oil filter screen. Consult an S&S service agent if further service is required.

Spark Plugs

Spark Plug Removal:

1- Disconnect spark plug wires from spark plugs by pulling on the molded connector boots. It may help to twist or rock the boots back and forth slightly while pulling.

2- Unscrew spark plugs.

Spark Plug Inspection:

If either of the following conditions occurs, further service is required.

1- A spark plug with a black, glossy-wet coating indicates that oil is entering the combustion chamber.

2- A spark plug that is wet with gasoline or has sooty deposits indicates either a faulty ignition or a problem with carburetion.

Spark Plug Installation:

Spark plugs must be screwed in correctly to avoid cross-threading, and tightened adequately to ensure proper heat transfer. Do not over-tighten.

CAUTION

Threads may strip in the aluminum cylinder heads if over-tightened. Repair will not be covered under warranty.

1- Inspect spark plug threads and clean if necessary.

2- Set plug gap 0.040”to 0.045.”

3- Apply anti-seize to threads of spark plugs.

4- Start screwing spark plugs in by hand. They should screw in easily.

5- Torque spark plugs to 18 to 22 lb-ft (24 to 30 N-m).

Ignition Timing

Timing advances electronically as the engine speed changes.

Ignition Timing Check:

1- With engine not running, connect inductive timing light to front spark plug wire.

2- Loosen timing plug from left side of crankcase where two cylinders meet.

WARNING

Oil mist will exit timing plug hole when engine is running. It is recommended that a transparent inspection plug (not provided) be installed prior to starting engine to prevent discomfort and possible injury to eyes.

3- Start engine and reach normal operating temperature. Set engine speed to RPM given in engine specifications.

NOTE: An inductive tachometer, attached to spark plug cable, may be helpful if the motorcycle is not equipped with a tachometer. Tachometers designed for "wasted spark" ignition systems may read half the actual engine speed.

4- Using dial-back timing light, set the amount of advance specified, found in the engine specifications or on the emission tune-up label for the engine.

5- Illuminate flywheel inside crankcase through transparent timing plug with timing light. The "T:F" mark stamped on the flywheel should be centered in the plug.

6- Stop engine, remove transparent timing plug and replace metal one supplied with engine.

Ignition Timing Adjustment

CAUTION

TO BE PERFORMED ONLY BY AN AUTHORIZED SERVICE AGENT. Ignition timing is not to be adjusted. Contact your authorized S&S dealer if service is required.

NOTE: Engines with Super Stock® ignition come timed from the factory and have a tamper proof seal. Breaking this seal will void the engine warranty.

Storage

If the motorcycle will be stored for several months, the carburetor float bowl should be drained to avoid a buildup of gum or varnish. The following procedure should be used:

1- Fully close the petcock.

2- Place small, open container below float bowl.

3- Unscrew drain plug to allow gasoline to drain into container.

WARNING

Gasoline is extremely flammable and vapors can be toxic or explosive. Adequate ventilation must be provided and sparks or open flame avoided when working with gasoline.

4- Reinstall and tighten drain plug.

S&S CYCLE, INC. EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT

The following warranty applies to the emission control system and is in addition to the S&S Cycle, Inc. LIMITED WARRANTY.

YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS

The following is an explanation of the emission control system warranty on your

2009 and later engine. New motor vehicles and engines must be designed, built, and equipped to meet stringent anti-smog standards. S&S must warrant the emissions control system parts on your engine for the period of time listed below, provided there has been no abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance of your engine.

The emission control system included with your new engine may include parts such as the carburetor, intake manifold, and evaporative components. Also included may be hoses, connectors, and other emission-related S&S assemblies or parts.

Where a warrantable condition exists, within the warranty period noted below, your authorized S&S dealer will repair your engine at no cost to you, including diagnosis, parts, and labor.

OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES

As the engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your owner’s manual. S&S recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your engine.

You are responsible for presenting your motorcycle to an S&S dealer as soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.

As the engine owner, you should be aware that S&S may deny your warranty coverage if your engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.

If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact S&S Cycle, Inc., 235 Causeway Blvd LaCrosse, WI 54603 or the

California Air Resources Board, P.O. Box 8001, 9528 Telstar Avenue, El Monte, CA

ADDITIONAL WARRANTY TERMS

The warranty period begins on the date the engine is delivered to the ultimate purchaser, or on the date it is first placed in service.

The emission control system of each new S&S engine was designed, built, and tested using only genuine S&S parts and with these parts the engine is certified as being in conformity with emission control regulations.

We recommend that you go only to an authorized S&S dealer for repairs under this warranty. He/she has factory-trained mechanics and genuine S&S parts.

However, in the case of an “emergency” (as define below), you could have repairs performed at any available service establishment or by the owner, using any replacement part. An authorized S&S dealer not being reasonably available, or a part not being available within a reasonable time period (not to exceed 30 days from the time the motorcycle is initially presented to an S&S dealer for repair) constitutes an emergency. S&S will reimburse the owner for such repairs, including diagnosis, only if it is established that the repairs are covered under this emission warranty. S&S’s parts reimbursement, however, will not exceed our suggested retail price for all warranted parts replaced and our labor reimbursement will be limited to our recommended time allowances for emission system repairs at the geographically appropriate hourly labor rate.

To obtain reimbursement from S&S for such emergency repairs, you must keep all failed parts and original receipts, so you can present them to an authorized

S&S dealer for his inspection. S&S recommends that you bring your engine to an authorized dealer for inspection to ensure that the emergency repairs were done properly.

The use of replacement parts which are not equal in quality to genuine S&S parts may impair the effectiveness of the emission control system or otherwise damage your engine. If other than genuine S&S parts are used for maintenance, replacement or repair of components affecting emission control, you should obtain written assurances that such non-S&S parts are warranted by their manufacturer to be equal in quality to genuine S&S parts in both performance and durability.

The use of non-S&S replacement parts does not invalidate the existing warranty, if any, on other S&S components unless the non-S&S parts cause damage to warranted parts or result in the creation of an emission non-compliant engine.

However, S&S ASSUMES NO LIABILITY UNDER THIS WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO

ANY PARTS WHICH ARE NOT GENUINE S&S PARTS, unless genuine S&S parts cause damage to non-genuine S&S parts.

MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY COVERAGE
