The recommended oil type is fully synthetic 10W-50 motorcycle oil. Always check the owner's manual for specific recommendations.
It is advised to change the oil every 15 hours of riding or after every race, whichever comes first.
For optimal performance, maintain a tire pressure of 12 psi in the front and 12 psi in the rear tires. Adjust according to terrain conditions.
To adjust the chain tension, ensure the bike is on a stand. Measure 55-58 mm of slack at the midpoint between the sprockets. Adjust using the chain adjusters on the swingarm.
Check the fuel supply, ensure the kill switch is off, inspect the spark plug for fouling, and verify the battery charge. If the issue persists, consult a professional.
Adjust the front and rear suspension based on your weight and riding style. Consult the manual for baseline settings and make incremental changes.
Clean the air filter every 15 hours of riding or more frequently in dusty conditions. Replace it if damaged.
To reset the service light, turn the ignition on, press and hold the mode button until the service interval resets on the display.
Use a high-quality ethylene glycol-based coolant with anti-corrosion properties, pre-mixed to a 50/50 ratio with distilled water.
Inspect the brake fluid reservoirs for both the front and rear brakes. Ensure the fluid is between the 'min' and 'max' markers. Refill with DOT 4 brake fluid if necessary.
