ground noise or ambient background noise is
eliminated. Turn the control knob fully counter-
clockwise, then slowly clockwise (or push the
up-down switch in either direction) until the re-
ceive noise disappears. In order to be heard,
any signal must now be slightly stronger that the
average received noise. Further clockwise set-
ting will increase the threshold level which a sig-
nal must overcome in order to be heard. Only
strong signals will be heard at the maximum set-
ting.

“mated” through normal wear.
Mated parts must always be reused or re-
placed as an assembly.
4. During disassembly, clean all of the parts
and place them in trays in the order of disas-
sembly. This will speed up assembly and al-
low for the correct installation of all parts.
5. Keep all parts away from any source of fire.

GENERAL TIGHTENING TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS

This chart specifies tightening torques for standard fasteners with a standard ISO thread pitch. Tight-
ening torque specifications for special components or assemblies are provided for each chapter of this
manual. To avoid warpage, tighten multi-fastener assemblies in a crisscross pattern and progressive
stages until the specified tightening torque is reached.
Unless otherwise specified, tightening torque specifications require clean, dry threads. Components
should be at room temperature.

signed only for tube tires to avoid tire fail-
ure and personal injury from sudden defla-
tion.
When using tube tires, be sure to install the
correct tube.
Always replace a new tube tire and a new
tube as a set.
To avoid pinching the tube, make sure that
the wheel rim band and tube are centered in
the wheel groove.
A B Patching a punctured tube is not recom-
mended. If it is absolutely necessary to do
so, use great care and replace the tube as
soon as possible with a good quality re-
placement.

CHECKING THE TIRES/CHECKING THE WHEELS ADJ
WARNING
After mounting a new tire, ride conserva-
tively for a while to become accustomed to
the “feel” of the new tire and to allow the
tire to seat itself properly in the rim. Failure
to do so could lead to an accident with pos-
sible injury to the rider or damage to the
motorcycle.
After a tire has been repaired or replaced,
be sure to tighten the tire valve stem lock-
nut 1 to specification.
NOTE:
For tires with a direction of rotation mark 1 :
Install the tire with the mark pointing in the
direction of wheel rotation.
Align the mark 2 with the valve installation
point.

CHECKING AND CHARGING THE BATTERY ADJ
EAS00178
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
CHECKING AND CHARGING THE BATTERY
WARNING
Batteries generate explosive hydrogen gas
and contain electrolyte which is made of poi-
sonous and highly caustic sulfuric acid.
Therefore, always follow these preventive
measures:
Wear protective eye gear when handling or
working near batteries.
Charge batteries in a well-ventilated area.
Keep batteries away from fire, sparks or
open flames (e.g., welding equipment,
lighted cigarettes).
DO NOT SMOKE when charging or han-
dling batteries.
KEEP BATTERIES AND ELECTROLYTE
OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
Avoid bodily contact with electrolyte as it
can cause severe burns or permanent eye
injury.
First aid in case of bodily contact:
External
SKIN – Wash with water.
EYES – Flush with water for 15 minutes and
get immediate medical attention.
Internal
Drink large quantities of water or milk fol-
lowed with milk of magnesia, beaten egg or
vegetable oil. Get immediate medical atten-
tion.
CAUTION:
This is a sealed battery. Never remove the
sealing caps because the balance between
cells will not be maintained and battery per-
formance will deteriorate.
Charging time, charging amperage and
charging voltage for a MF battery are differ-
ent from those of conventional batteries.
The MF battery should be charged as ex-
plained in the charging method illustra-
tions. If the battery is overcharged, the
electrolyte level will drop considerably.
Therefore, take special care when charging
the battery.
3-51
CHK
NOTE:
Since MF batteries are sealed, it is not possible
to check the charge state of the battery by mea-
suring the specific gravity of the electrolyte.
Therefore, the charge of the battery has to be
checked by measuring the voltage at the battery
terminals.
1. Remove:
rider seat
Refer to “RIDER SEATS”.
2. Disconnect:
battery leads
(fron the battery terminals)
CAUTION:
First, disconnect the negative lead 1 , then
the positive lead 2 .
3. Remove:

NOTE:
The charge state of a MF battery can be
checked by measuring its open-circuit voltage
(i.e., the voltage when the positive terminal is
disconnected).
No charging is necessary when the open-cir-
cuit voltage equals or exceeds 12.8 V.
b. Check he charge of the battery, as shown in

the charts and the following example.
Example
c. Open-circuit voltage = 12.0 V
d. Charging time = 6.5 hours
e. Charge of the battery = 20 30 %

(refer to the appropriate charging method il-
lustration)
WARNING
Do not quick charge a battery.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the battery breather hose
and battery vent are free of obstructions.
Never remove the MF battery sealing caps.
Do not use a high-rate battery charger.
They force a high-amperage current into
the battery quickly and can cause battery
overheating and battery plate damage.
If it is impossible to regulate the charging
current on the battery charger, be careful
not to overcharge the battery.
When charging a battery, be sure to remove
it from the motorcycle. (If charging has to
be done with the battery mounted on the
motorcycle, disconnect the negative lead
from the battery terminal.)
To reduce the chance of sparks, do not
plug in the battery charger until the battery
charger leads are connected to the battery.
Before removing the battery charger lead
clips from the battery terminals, be sure to
turn off the battery charger.
Make sure that the battery charger lead
clips are in full contact with the battery ter-
minal and that they are not shorted. A cor-
rected battery charger lead clip may gener-
ate heat in the contact area and a weak clip
spring may cause sparks.
If the battery becomes hot to the touch at
any time during the charging process, dis-
connect the battery charger and let the bat-
tery cool before reconnecting it. Hot batter-
ies can explode!
As shown in the following illustration, the
open-circuit voltage of a MF battery stabi-
lizes about 30 minutes after charging has
been completed. Therefore, wait 30 min-
utes after charging is completed before
measuring the open-circuit voltage.

ASSEMBLING THE MIDDLE DRIVEN SHAFT

ASSEMBLY
NOTE:
The following points are critical when assem-
bling the middle gears:
S The collapsible collar must be replaced when-
ever the middle driven shaft assembly is re-
moved from the middle driven shaft bearing
housing.
S When performing this procedure for the first
time, be sure to have at least one extra collaps-
ible collar on hand.
S If there is insufficient preload on the bearings,
the middle driven shaft can move slightly, al-
lowing oil to leak past the seal. In addition to
torquing the middle driven shaft nut to specifi-
cation, you must also check the spinning
torque (bearing preload).
1. Install:
S bearing outer race
(into the middle driven shaft bearing hous-
ing)
WARNING
Do not press the bearing outer race. During
installation, always press the bearing inner
race carefully.
2. Tighten:
S middle driven shaft nut
CAUTION:
Apply LOCTITER on to the middle driven
shaft nut.
While holding the universal joint driven yoke with

the univesal joint holder 1 , tighten the middle
driven shaft nut.
4-109
MIDDLE GEAR ENG
CAUTION:
Tighten the middle driven shaft nut in small
increments, checking the torque it takes to
keep the middle driven gear turning in the
middle driven shaft bearing housing – not
the torque it takes to start it turning.

YM-04062, 90890-04062
3. Measure:
middle driven gear spinning torque
(with the beam-type torque wrench)
Under specification Repeat steps (2) and
(3).
CAUTION:
Never exceed the standard spinning
torque.
If the spinning torque is not high enough,
tighten the middle driven shaft nut slightly
and check the spinning torque again. Re-
peat these steps until the proper spinning
torque is obtained.
If the spinning torque specification is ex-
ceeded, remove the middle driven shaft as-
sembly, install a new collapsible collar, and
repeat steps (1) – (3).
Middle driven gear spinning

torque
0.40.5 Nm (0.040.05 mkg,
0.29 0.36 ftlb)
4. Install:
universal joint driven yoke/cross joint (into
the universal joint drive yoke)
CAUTION:
Do not hammer the universal joint drive
yoke or the collapsible collar may be dis-
torted. This will result in a change in the
standard spinning torque, requiring re-
placement of the collapsible collar and reas-
sembly of the middle driven shaft assembly.
4-110
MIDDLE GEAR ENG
5. Install:
bearings
(onto the universal joint driven yoke/cross
joint)
CAUTION:
Then needles can easily fall out of their
races, so check each bearing carefully. Slide
the universal joint driven yok assembly
back and forth on the bearings. If a needle is
out of place, the yoke will not go all the way
onto the bearings.
6. Press each bearing into the universal joint

driven yoke assembly with a socket of the
proper size.
NOTE:
The bearings must be inserted far enough into
the universal joint driven yoke assembly so that
circlips can be installed.
ALIGNING THE MIDDLE GEAR

1. Select:
middle drive gear shim(-s)
NOTE:
Select the proper middle drive gear shim(-s)
whenever the crankcase or the middle gears
are replaced.
4-111
MIDDLE GEAR ENG
Example
Shim thickness =
Distance “A” – Distance “B”
A = 54.5 (constant number)
B = 53 + (a/100)
a. If the left crankcase is stamped “96”, then:
B = 53 + (96/100)
= 53 + 0.96
= 53.96
Therefore:
T= A – B
= 54.5 – 53.96
= 0.54 mm
b. Then calculated shim thickness is 0.54 mm.
Shims can only be selected in 0.05 mm incre-
ments, therefore round off to the hundredths
digit of the calculated thickness and select
the appropriate shim(-s) with the following
chart.
Hundredths digit Rounded value

0, 1, 2 0
3, 4, 5, 6 5
7, 8, 9 10
c. Using the above example, the calculated
shim thickness of 0.54 mm is rounded off to
0.55 mm. Therefore, you may choose
0.15 mm and 0.4 mm shim as selected from
the shim thickness chart below.
Shim sizes are supplied in the following
thickness:
Middle drive pinion shim
Thickness (mm) 0.15 0.30 0.40 0.50

Middle gear backlash tool

90890-04080
2. Loosen:
3. Remove:
shim(-s)
4. Tighten:
CAUTION:
Do not overtighten the middle driven shaft
bearing housing bolts or you may obtain too
little middle gear backlash and damage the
middle gears. If the bolts are overtightened,
loosen them until the crankcase-to-middle-
driven-shaft-bearing-housing clearance is
within specification, as stated below. Then,
repeat all of the previous steps.
NOTE:
Tighten the middle driven shaft bearing hous-
ing bolts carefully, one thread turn at a time
only. Push in the middle driven shaft bearing
housing and then tighten the bolts to specifica-
tion.
Clearance between the crankcase and the
middle driven shaft bearing housing should be
approximately 2 mm (0.08 in), when measured
with a thickness gauge 1 .
5. Turn:
universal joint drive yoke
NOTE:
While carefully tightening the middle driven
shaft bearing housing bolts in stages and in a
crisscross pattern, turn the universal joint drive
yoke back and forth until the dial gauge reads
0.05 0.12 mm (0.002 0.005 in).
6. Measure:
crankcase-to-middle-driven-shaft-bearing-
housing clearance
(with a thickness gauge)
4-113
MIDDLE GEAR ENG
7. Select:
S shim(-s) 1
a. Shims can only be selected in 0.05 mm incre-

ments, therefore round off to the hundredths
digit of the calculated thickness and select
the appropriate shim(-s) with the following
chart.
b. For example, the clearance between the
crankcase and the middle driven shaft bear-
ing housing is 0.42 mm. Therefore, the chart
instructs you to round off the 2 to 0. Thus, you
should use one 0.40 mm shim.

AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM CARB

AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM(AIS)

AIR INJECTION
This system burns the unburned exhaust gases
by injecting fresh air (secondary air) at the ex-
haust port. This is to reduce the output of the hy-
drocarbons.
When there is negative pressure around the ex-
haust port, the reed valve opens and the sec-
ondary air flows into the exhaust port.
The required temperature for burning the un-
burned exhaust gases is approximately 600_ to
700_C.
AIR CUT-OFF VALVE

The air cut-off valve is operated by intake gas
pressure through the diaphragm. Normally, this
valve is opened in order to allow fresh air to flow
into the exhaust port.
When the throttle is rapidly closed, negative
pressure is generated and the valve closes in
order to prevent after-burning.

TROUBLESHOOTING
The following conditions may indicate damaged shaft drive components:
A Symptoms B Possible Causes

1.A Pronounced hesitation of jerky movement A. Bearing damage
during acceleration, deceleration, or sustained B. Improper gear lash
speeds (This must not be confused with C.Damaged gear teeth
engine surging or transmission-related D.Broken drive shaft
movements.) E. Broken gear teeth
2.A rolling “rumble” noticeable at low speeds, a F. Seizure due to lack of lubrication
high-pitched whine, or a “clunk” from a shaft G.Small foreign objects lodged between
drive component or area moving parts
3.A locked-up condition of the shaft drive mecha-
nism or no power transmitted from the engine
to the rear wheel
NOTE:
Causes A, B and C may be extremely difficult to diagnose. The symptoms are quite subtle and difficult
to distinguish from normal operating noises. If there is reason to believe these components are dam-
aged, remove them for individual inspection.
7-74
SHAFT DRIVE CHAS
Inspection notes
1. Investigate any unusual noises.
The following noises may indicate a me-

chanical defect:
a. A rolling “rumble” during coasting, accelera-
tion, or deceleration. The noise increases
with rear wheel speed, but does not increase
with higher engine or transmission speeds.
Diagnosis: Possible wheel bearing damage
b. A whining noise that varies with acceleration
and deceleration.
Diagnosis: Possible incorrect reassembly,
too little gear lash
CAUTION:
Insufficient gear lash is extremely destruc-
tive to the gear teeth. If a test ride following
reassembly indicates this condition, stop
riding immediately to minimize gear dam-
age.
c. A slight “clunk” evident at low speed opera-

tion. This noise must be distinguished from
normal motorcycle operation.
Diagnosis: Possible broken gear teeth
WARNING
Stop riding immediately if broken gear teeth
are suspected. This condition could result
in a locking of the shaft drive assembly,
causing loss of control of the motorcycle
and possible injury to the rider.
2. Check:
drained oil
Drained oil contains a large amount of metal
particles Check the bearing for seizure.

ALIGNING THE FINAL DRIVE PINION GEAR

AND RING GEAR
NOTE:
Aligning the final drive pinion gear and ring gear
is necessary when any of the following parts are
replaced:
final drive housing
any bearing
1. Select:
final drive pinion gear shim(-s) 1
ring gear shim(-s) 2
a. Position the final drive pinion gear and the
ring gear with shims 1 and 2 . Calculate the
respective thicknesses from information
marked on the final drive housing and the
drive pinion gear.
1 Final drive pinion gear shim
2 Ring gear shim
3 Thrust washer
b. To find final drive pinion gear shim thickness
“A”, use the following formula:
Final drive pinion gear shim thickness

A = (87 + a /100) - (86 + b /100)
7-87
FINAL DRIVE CHAS
Where:
a = a numeral (positive or negative) on the ring
gear, to be divided by 100 and added to “87”
b = a numeral on the final drive housing, to be
divided by 100 and added to “86”
Example:
If the final drive pinion gear is marked “+01” and
the final drive housing is marked “50”:
A = (87 + 1/100) - (86 + 50/100)
= (87 + 0.01) - (86 + 0.05)
= 87.01 - 86.50
= 0.51
Therefore, the calculated final drive pinion gear
shim thickness is 0.51 mm.
Shim sizes are supplied in the following thick-
nesses.
Final drive pinion gear shims
Thickness (mm) 0.30, 0.40 0.50
Since the final drive pinion gear shims are only

available in 0.10-mm increments, round off to
the hundredths digit.

0, 1, 2, 3, 4 0
5, 6, 7, 8, 9 10
In the example above, the calculated final drive
pinion gear shim thickness is 0.51 mm. The
chart instructs you to round off the 1 to 0. Thus,
you should use a 0.50-mm final drive pinion
gear shim.
c. To find ring gear shim thickness “B”, use the
following formula:
Ring gear shim thickness

B = (45 + c /100) + (3 + d /100) -
[(35.40 + e /100) + f]
Where:
c = a numeral on the final drive housing, to be
divided by 100 and added to 45
d = a numeral usually on the outside of the ring
gear bearing housing, to be divided by 100 and
added to 3
e = a numeral (positive or negative) on the in-
side of the ring gear, to be divided by 100 and
added to “35.40”.
f = the ring gear bearing thickness constant
7-88
FINAL DRIVE CHAS
Ring gear bearing thickness “f”

13 mm (0.51 in)
Example:
If the final drive housing is marked “51” the ring
gear bearing housing is marked “35”, the ring
gear is marked “-05”, and “f” is 13.00:
B = (45 + 51/100) + (3 + 35/100) - [35.40 - 5/
100) + 13]
= (45 + 0.51) + (3 + 0.35) - [(35.40 - 0.05) + 13]
= 45.51 + 3.35 -[(35.40 - 0.05) + 13]
= 48.86 - [35.35 + 13]
= 48.86 - 48.35
= 0.51
Therefore, the calculated ring gear shim thick-
ness is 0.51 mm.
Shim sizes are supplied in the following thick-
nesses.
Ring gear shims
Thickness (mm) 0.30, 0.40, 0.50
Since the ring gear shims are only available in

0.10-mm increments, round off the hundredths
digit.

0, 1, 2, 3, 4 0
5, 6, 7, 8, 9 10
In the example above, the calculated ring gear
shim thickness is 0.51-mm. The chart instructs
you to round off the 1 to 0. Thus, you should use
a 0.50-mm ring gear shim.

Bulbs A and B are used for headlights and
usually use a bulb holder which must be de-
tached before removing the bulb. The majority
of these bulbs can be removed from their re-
spective socket by turning them counterclock-
wise.
Bulb C is used for turn signal and tail/brake
lights and can be removed from the socket by
pushing and turning the bulb counterclock-
wise.
Bulbs D and E are used for meter and indica-
tor lights and can be removed from their re-
spective socket by carefully pulling them out.

Since the headlight bulb gets extremely hot,
keep flammable products and your hands
away from the bulb until it has cooled down.
CAUTION:
Be sure to hold the socket firmly when re-
moving the bulb. Never pull the lead, other-
wise it may be pulled out of the terminal in
the coupler.
Avoid touching the glass part of the head-
light bulb to keep it free from oil, otherwise
the transparency of the glass, the life of the
bulb and the luminous flux will be adverse-
ly affected. If the headlight bulb gets soiled,
thoroughly clean it with a cloth moistened
with alcohol or lacquer thinner.

ERATION
If the engine stop switch is set to “ ” and the
main switch is set to “ON” (both switches are
closed), the starter motor can only operate if at
least one of the following conditions is met:
The transmission is in neutral (the neutral
switch is closed).
The clutch lever is pulled to the handlebar (the
clutch switch is closed) and the sidestand is up
(the sidestand switch is closed).
The neutral relay prevents the starter motor
from operating when neither of these conditions
has been met. In this instance, the neutral relay
is open so current cannot reach the starter mo-
tor. When at least one of the above conditions
has been met the neutral relay is closed and the
engine can be started by pressing the start
switch.

CHECKING THE FUEL PUMP

WARNING
Gasoline is extremely flammable and under
certain circumstances there can be a danger
of an explosion or fire. Be extremely careful
and note the following points:
Stop the engine before refuelling.
Do not smoke, and keep away from open
flames, sparks, or any other source of fire.
If you do accidentally spill gasoline, wipe it
up immediately with dry rags.
If gasoline touches the engine when it is
not, a fire may occur. Therefore, make sure
that the engine is completely cool before
performing the following test.
1. Check:
fuel pump operation
a. Fill the fuel tank.

b. Put the end of the fuel hose into an open con-
tainer.
c. Connect the battery (12 V) to the fuel pump
coupler as shown.
Battery positive lead blue/black 1

Battery negative lead black 2
d. If fuel flows out of the fuel hose, the fuel pump
is OK.
If fuel does not flow, replace the fuel pump.

SELF DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION OF THE

CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM
The cruise control system has a self diagno-
sis function.
Use of the function allows the self diagnosis
about the following:
1. Trouble diagnosis of the cancel switch sig-
nal.
2. Trouble diagnosis of the brake light signal.
3. Trouble diagnosis of the throttle drive sys-
tem.
Operating procedure for the self diagnosis
mode
1) Turn on the main switch.
2) Set the “CRUISE” switch to the “ON” position.
3) Start the engine.

4) Use the engine stop switch and stop the en-
gine.
5) Wait for 10 seconds.
6) Push the cruise control switch to the “SET”
and “RES” alternatively three times (total of 6
times) within 2 seconds while pressing the
cancel switch.
Then the indicator light will be lit and the

cruise control system will enter the self
diagnosis mode.
1) The “SET” and “RES” indicator lights will
then blink alternatively three times.
NOTE:
When the cruise control system is not failure,
the “SET” and “RES” indicator lights will be re-
mained on.
Exiting the self diagnosis mode

Perform any one of the four steps shown below.
The system will then exit the self diagnosis
mode.
1) Start the engine.
2) Turn the rear wheels.
3) Turn off the main switch.
4) Push the “CRUISE” switch to “OFF”.

18 Rear brake light switch
and clutch switches.
19 Front brake light switch
If the “SET” indicator light is not extinguished
after any one of these switches is operated, it
mean that the relevant switch is in failure.
Example:
If the cancel switch is operated and the “SET”
indicator light is not extinguished, it means
that the cancel switch is in failure.
8-74
2. Trouble diagnosis of the brake light sig-

nal
1) The “RES” indicator light is lit.
2) Operate the following front brake and rear
switches.
If the RES indicator light is not extinguished
after either of these switches is operated, it
means that the relevant switch is in failure.
Example:
If the front brake switch is operated and the
“RES” indicator light is not extinguished, it
means that the front brake switch is infailure.
3. Trouble diagnosis of the throttle drive

1) Push the cruise control switch to ”RES”.
The throttle will be then opened fully in
approx. 2.5 seconds and kept fully open for 3
seconds.
The throttle will be fully closed approx. 2.5
seconds later.
Check the closing throttle for noises and op-
eration.
If noise is heard from the vacuum pump but

the throttle is not operating, it means that the
throttle cable is in failure.
If no noises are heard from the vacuum
pump, it means that the vacuum pump is in
failure.
