PERIODIC MAINTENANCE 2-27
Periodic Maintenance Procedures
Engine Lubrication System
Engine Oil and/or Oil Filter Change
Warm up the engine so that the oil will pick up any sedi-
ment and drain easily.
Place an oil pan beneath the engine.
Remove the engine oil drain plug [A], and let the oil drain
completely.
If the oil filter is to be changed, replace it with a new one
(see Oil Filter Removal/Installation).
Replace the gasket with a new one.
After the oil has completely drained out, install the drain
plug with the gasket.
Torque - Engine Oil Drain Plugs: 34 N·m (3.5 kgf·m, 25 ft·lb)
CAUTION
To avoid engine damage, do not fill the engine oil
above the full level. If the oil level in the cylinder
head cover gets too high because of filling too fast,
oil may over flow from the filler opening and/or may
flow through the crankcase breather hose into the
inlet manifold. Oil in the inlet manifold may flow
into the combustion chambers and cause hydraulic
lock, resulting in severe engine damage.
Remove the oil filler cap, and pull the dipstick out a little
(about 5 cm, 2 in.) to allow the air in the crankcase to
escape.
Slowly and evenly fill the engine with a good quality oil as
specified in the table.
Check the oil level.

NOTE
Although 10W-40 engine oil is the recommended oil

changed to accommodate atmospheric conditions in
your riding area.
