AIR INTAKE SYSTEM System diagram
This system is designed to improve the power while riding a motorcycle at a high speed by increasing the air intake efficiency by means of pressurizing the air filter case 2 where the air is taken in via the air duct 1 from the air intake port located under the headlight. The system also delivers air pressure from the air filter case to the carburetor side. The air pressure is operated to the fuel level in the carburetor to supply the appropriate fuel to increase the power. The air chamber 3 is also installed between the air filter case and carburetor for delivery of stabilized air pressure to the carburetor. THERMOSTAT Coolant flow is controlled by the thermostat of which flow control valve 1 is newly developed for avoiding quick temperature change. (Refer to the graphs) 2 Notch groove

FEATURES
Flow control operation 1) When valve is closed The lip 1 seals the coolant. 2) When valve is set as low-lift The 2nd lip 2 seals the coolant. To reduce the water temperature change, the coolant starts flowing through the notch depending on its area at a section. 3) When the valve is set as middle-lift The 3rd lip 3 seals the coolant. The coolant flows through the notch depending on its area at b section. This flow rate is larger than the case of 2). 4) When the valve is set as high-lift In the same way as the regular thermostat control, the coolant flows through clearance c between the valve and flange. 1) 2)

4. Measure: S valve clearance Out of specification ! Adjust Valve clearance (cold) Intake valve 0.11 X 0.20 mm Exhaust valve 0.21 X 0.30 mm a. Turn the crankshaft clockwise. b. When piston #1 is at TDC on the compression stroke, align the TDC mark a on the pickup coil rotor with the crankcase mating surface b . NOTE: TDC on the compression stroke can be found when the camshaft lobes are turned away from each other. c. Measure the valve clearance with a thickness gauge 1 . NOTE: S If the valve clearance is incorrect, record the measured reading. S Measure the valve clearance in the following sequence. Valve clearance measuring sequence Cylinder #1 ! #2 ! #4 ! #3
A Front d. To measure the valve clearances of the other cylinders, starting with cylinder #1 at TDC, turn the crankshaft counterclockwise as specified in the following table. B Degrees that the crankshaft is turned counterclockwise C Cylinder D Combustion cycle

5. Remove: S timing chain tensioner S timing chain guide (exhaust side) S camshaft cap S timing chain (from the camshaft sprockets) S intake camshaft S exhaust camshaft NOTE: S Refer to CAMSHAFTS in chapter 4. S When removing the timing chain from camshafts, fasten the timing chain with a wire to retrieve it if it falls into the crankcase.
6. Adjust: S valve clearance a. Remove the valve lifter 1 and the valve pad 2. NOTE: S Cover the timing chain opening with a rag to prevent the valve pad from falling into the crankcase. S Make a note of the position of each valve lifter 1 and valve pad 2 so that they can be installed in the correct place. b. Select the proper valve pad from the following table. Valve pad thickness range Nos. 120 X 240 1.20 X 2.40 mm Available valve pads 25 thicknesses in 0.05 mm increments
NOTE: S The thickness a of each valve pad is marked in hundredths of millimeters on the side that touches the valve lifter. S Since valve pads of various sizes are originally installed, the valve pad number must be rounded in order to reach the closest equivalent to the original.

c. Round off the original valve pad number according to the following table. Last digit 0 or 2 5 8 Rounded value 0 5 10
EXAMPLE: Original valve pad number = 148 (thickness = 1.48 mm) Rounded value = 150 d. Locate the rounded number of the original valve pad and the measured valve clearance in the valve pad selection table. The point where the column and row intersect is the new valve pad number. NOTE: The new valve pad number is only an approximation. The valve clearance must be measured again and the above steps should be repeated if the measurement is still incorrect. e. Install the new valve pad 1 and the valve lifter 2 . NOTE: S Lubricate the valve pad with molybdenum disulfide grease. S Lubricate the valve lifter with molybdenum disulfide oil. S The valve lifter must turn smoothly when rotated by hand. S Install the valve lifter and the valve pad in the correct place. f. Install the exhaust and intake camshafts, timing chain and camshaft caps. Camshaft cap bolt 10 Nm (1.0 mSkg) NOTE: S Refer to CAMSHAFTS in chapter 4. S Lubricate the camshaft lobes and camshaft journals. S First, install the exhaust camshaft. S Align the camshaft marks with the camshaft cap marks. S Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise several full turns to seat the parts.

CHECKING AND CHARGING THE BATTERY

EB305020
CHK ADJ
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WARNING
Batteries generate explosive hydrogen gas and contain electrolyte which is made of poisonous and highly caustic sulfuric acid. Therefore, always follow these preventive measures: S Wear protective eye gear when handling or working near batteries. S Charge batteries in a well-ventilated area. S Keep batteries away from fire, sparks or open flames (e.g., welding equipment, lighted cigarettes). S DO NOT SMOKE when charging or handling batteries. S KEEP BATTERIES AND ELECTROLYTE OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. S Avoid bodily contact with electrolyte as it can cause severe burns or permanent eye injury. FIRST AID IN CASE OF BODILY CONTACT: EXTERNAL S Skin Wash with water S Eyes Flush with water for 15 minutes and get immediate medical attention. INTERNAL S Drink large quantities of water or milk followed with milk of magnesia, beaten egg or vegetable oil. Get immediate medical attention.
CAUTION:
S This is a sealed battery. Never remove the sealing caps because the balance between cells will not be maintained and battery performance will deteriorate. S Charging time, charging amperage and charging voltage for an MF battery are different from those of conventional batteries. The MF battery should be charged as explained in the charging method illustrations. If the battery is overcharged, the electrolyte level will drop considerably. Therefore, take special care when charging the battery.
3-59
CHK ADJ
NOTE: Since MF batteries are sealed, it is not possible to check the charge state of the battery by measuring 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: S rider seat Refer to SEATS. 2. Disconnect: S battery leads (from the battery terminals)
CAUTION:
First, disconnect the negative lead 2 , then the positive lead 1 . 3. Remove: S battery 4. Measure: S battery charge a. Connect a digital voltmeter to the battery terminals. Tester positive probe ! battery positive terminal Tester negative probe ! battery negative terminal
13.0 12.5 12.0 11.5 Relationship between the open-circuit voltage and the charging time at 20_C
NOTE: S The charge state of an MF battery can be checked by measuring its open-circuit voltage (i.e., the voltage when the positive terminal is disconnected). S No charging is necessary when the open-circuit voltage equals or exceeds 12.8 V. b. Check the charge of the battery, as shown in the charts and the following example. Example Open-circuit voltage = 12.0 V Charging time = 6.5 hours Charge of the battery = 20 X 30%

WARNING
Do not quick charge a battery.
Time (minutes) Check the open-circuit voltage.
CAUTION:
S Never remove the MF battery sealing caps. S Do not use a high-rate battery charger since it forces a high-amperage current into the battery quickly and can cause battery overheating and battery plate damage. S If it is impossible to regulate the charging current on the battery charger, be careful not to overcharge the battery. S 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.) S To reduce the chance of sparks, do not plug in the battery charger until the battery charger leads are connected to the battery. S Before removing the battery charger lead clips from the battery terminals, be sure to turn off the battery charger. S Make sure that the battery charger lead clips are in full contact with the battery terminal and that they are not shorted. A corroded battery charger lead clip may generate heat in the contact area and a weak clip spring may cause sparks. S If the battery becomes hot to the touch at any time during the charging process, disconnect the battery charger and let the battery cool before reconnecting it. Hot batteries can explode! S As shown in the following illustration, the open-circuit voltage of an MF battery stabilizes about 30 minutes after charging has been completed. Therefore, wait 30 minutes after charging is completed before measuring the open-circuit voltage.
