The throttle twistgrip must have a free play of 1.5 - 2 mm

/ 0.06-0.09 in. measured at the edge of the twistgrip, at

all positions of the handlebars. If it needs adjusting, use

the suitable adjuster (2, fig. 31) provided on the throttle

Checking battery electrolyte level (fig. 32)

Remove the r.h. body panel to check battery liquid level

(see page 38).

Battery liquid level must be maintained between the

maximum (UPPER LEVEL) and minimum (LOWER

LEVEL) marks on battery front.

If battery liquid level is too low, remove the caps (1) and

top up carefully with distilled water up to the upper level

line, using a small syringe or a plastic funnel.

When adding distilled water, make sure the breather tube

(2) is connected to battery breather outlet. The breather

tube must be so placed that it does not kink or twist.

Important

Add only distilled water to the battery.

Tap water may shorten battery life.

A kinked or twisted breather tube may lead to

overpressure and damage the battery.

Warning

The battery contains sulphuric acid (electrolyte).

Avoid contact with skin and eyes as it may cause severe

burns.

If you spill some electrolyte on your skin, wash the

affected area with abundant water and seek medical

advice.

Electrolyte is poisonous: if you swallow it accidentally,

drink abundant milk or water, eat some magnesia,

scrambled eggs or drink vegetable oil and seek medical

advice without delay.
