Pre-Operation Check Engine Stop/Run Switch Be sure the engine stop/run switch stops the engine, or prevents the engine from starting when set to the Stop position. Notice If you regularly use this switch to shut off the engine, you are already checking its operation each time you use the motorcycle. Check Engine Oil Level A dipstick attached to the oil fill cap registers the engine oil level. 1. With the transmission in neutral, start and run the engine for several minutes. 2. Shut the engine off and wait for 3-5 minutes. 3. Straddle the motorcycle on level ground and bring it to a vertical position. Remove the oil fill cap and wipe the dipstick clean. Reinstall the dipstick and turn the cap clockwise until it seats. 4. Remove the dipstick again and note the oil level. 5. If necessary, add or remove oil to bring the level into the area on the dipstick above the ADD mark and below the FULL mark (see "Engine Oil Specifications," page 139). Repeat steps 1-2 each time you adjust the oil level. 1 1 1. Oil Fill Cap/Dipstick 2 1. ADD Mark 2. FULL Mark 47
