MAINTENANCE

Lubrication

Jackshaft Bearing

Loosen the driven clutch retaining bolt and pull

the clutch outward to expose the bearing and

grease fitting. Inject grease into the grease fitting

in the flangette until grease purges from inside or

outside the bearing seal (may take only two

pumps). Push the clutch back onto the shaft and

replace the clutch retaining bolt. Torque to 18 ft.

lbs. (24.4 Nm).

Driveshaft Bearing

Inject grease into the fitting on the speedometer

drive adaptor until grease purges from inside or

outside the bearing seal (approximately two

pumps).

Throttle Cable

Lubricate the throttle cable (1) lightly

with grease or oil. With the engine off,

turn the handlebars to the left and

lubricate liberally as shown.

Choke and Cable

Lubricate the choke slide (2) and cables

lightly with oil or grease. Before

turning the engine off, operate the choke

intermittently to draw moisture out of

the choke plunger area and reduce the

possibility of the choke becoming

frozen.
