TIP
 Engine air filter and V-belt air filters
• This model’s engine air filter is equipped with a disposable oil-coated paper element, which must not be cleaned
with compressed air to avoid damaging it.
• The engine air filter element needs to be replaced and the V-belt air filter elements need to be serviced more fre-
quently when riding in unusually wet or dusty areas.
 Hydraulic brake service
• After disassembling the brake master cylinders and calipers, always change the fluid. Regularly check the brake fluid
levels and fill the reservoirs as required.
• Every two years replace the internal components of the brake master cylinders and calipers, and change the brake
6 fluid.
• Replace the brake hoses every four years and if cracked or damaged.

 Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine and radiator are hot. Scalding hot fluid and steam may be
blown out under pressure, which could cause serious injury. Be sure to wait until the engine has cooled.
 Place a thick rag, like a towel, over the radiator cap, and then slowly rotate the cap counterclockwise to the
detent to allow any residual pressure to escape. When the hissing sound has stopped, press down on the cap
while turning it counterclockwise, and then remove the cap.
