Emission Control Systems


The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and California Air Resources Board (CARB) require manufacturers to certify
that their motorcycles comply with applicable exhaust emissions standards during their useful life, when operated and
maintained according to the instructions provided. and that motorcycles built after January 1, 1983 comply with appli-
cable noise emission standards for one year or 6,000 km (3,730 miles) after the time of sale to the ultimate purchaser,
when operated and maintained according to the instructions provided. Compliance with the terms of the Distributor's
Warranties for Honda Motorcycle Emission Control Systems is necessary in order to keep the emissions system warranty
in effect.

Source of Emissions

The combustion process produces carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons. Control of hydrocarbons is very important be-
cause, under certain conditions, they react to form photochemical smog when subjected to sunlight. Carbon monoxide
does not react in the same way, but it is toxic.

Honda Motor Co., Ltd. utilizes lean carburetor settings as well as other systems, to reduce carbon monoxide and hydro-
carbons.

Crankcase Emission Control System

The crankcase emission control system routes crankcase emissions through the air cleaner and into the combustion cham-
ber.

General Information

Exhaust Emission Control System (Secondary Air Supply System) [U.S.A. only]

The exhaust emission control system consists of a secondary air supply system which introduces filtered air into the ex-
haust gases in the exhaust port. Fresh air is drawn into the exhaust port whenever there is a negative pressure pulse in
the exhaust system. This charge of fresh air promotes burning of the unburned exhaust gases and changes a considerable
amount of hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide into relatively harmless carbon dioxide and water vapor.
The pulse secondary air injection check valves prevents reverse air flow through the system. The pulse secondary air in-
jection control valve reacts to high intake manifold vacuum and will cut off the supply of fresh air during engine decelera-
tion, thereby preventing afterburn in the exhaust system.

No adjustments to the secondary air supply system should be made, although periodic inspection of the components is
recommended.

Evaporative Emission Control System


{'91-'93: Standard California Type and U.S.A. ABS/TCS Typel
(After '93: California Typel
This vehicle complies with the California Air Resources Board requirements for evaporative emission regulations.

Fuel vapor from the fuel tank and carburetors is routed into the evaporative emission canister where it is absorbed and
stored while the engine is stopped. When the engine is running and the evaporative emission purge control diaphragm
valve is open, fuel vapor in the evaporative emission canister is drawn into the engine through the carburetor. At the
same time, the evaporative emission carburetor air vent control valve is open and air is drawn into the carburetor through
the valve.

Spark Plugs
Remove the maintenance cover (page 2-5).

Disconnect the spark plug caps and clean any dirt from
around the spark plug bases.
Remove the spark plugs.

Visually inspect the spark plug electrodes for wear. The


center electrode should have square edges and the side
electrode should have a constant thickness. Discard the
spark plug if there is apparent wear or if the insulator is
cracked or chipped.

For recommended spark plug, see page 1-15.

Measure the spark plug gaps using a wire-type feeler (1) SIDE

Maintenance

Turn the crankshaft clockwise and align the T1 mark on


(1) INDEX MARK
the timing belt drive pulley guide plate with the timing
belt cover Index mark.

Make sure the No.1 piston is at Top Dead Center (TDC)


on the compression stroke and the RIGHT camshaft index
lines align with the top of the cylinder head and face (2) T1 MARK
OUT as shown.

If the No. 1 piston is not at TDC on the compression


stroke, turn the crankshaft clockwise one full turn and
realign the T1 mark with the index mark.

Measure the No. 1 cylinder valve clearances for the


intake and exhaust valves by inserting a feeler gauge
between the cam lobes and the valve lifters.

Valva clearance:
IN: 0.13-0.19 mm (0.005-0.007 in)
EX: 0.22-0.28 mm (0.009-0.11 in)

Record the clearance for each valve for reference, if shim


selection is needed.
(1) INDEX LINE {FACING OUT)
Turn the crankshaft clockwise 1/4 turn to align the T4
mark with the index mark. The LEFT camshaft index lines
should align with the top of the cylinder head and face
IN.

Measure and record the No.4 cylinder valve clearances.

Turn the crankshaft clockwise 3/4 turn to align the T1


mark. The RIGHT camshaft index lines should align with
the top of the cylinder head and face IN.

Measure and record the No.3 cylinder valve clearances.

Turn the crankshaft clockwise 1/4 turn to align the T4


mark. The LEFT camshaft index lines should align with
the top of the cylinder head and face OUT.
(1) FEELER GAUGE
Measure and record the No.2 cylinder valve clearances.

Shim Selection

If the valve clearance is not correct:


Remove the camshaft (page 8-4), valve lifter and shim
(page 8-8).

NOTE
Be careful not to allow the shims to fall into the
crankcase. The shim may occasionally stick to the
valve lifter.
Mark the positions of all valve lifters and shims to
ensure correct reassembly.
Remove the shim with tweezers or a magnet.

Clean the valve lifter with compressed air.

3-7
Maintenance

Clean the shim with a clean shop towel.


Measure the shim thickness with a micrometer and record (1) SHIM
it.

NOTE
Sixty-five different shims are available in thickness
,
o

intervals of 0.025 mm. The thinnest is 1.200 mm


and the thickest is 2. BOO mm.

To select' the shim needed to bring the valve clearance


within the specification, use the following formula:

a=b-c+d
a: new shim thickness
b: recorded valve clearance
c: specified valve clearance
d: old shim thickness

Example
b: recorded valve clearance = 0.18 rnm
c: specified valve clearance = 0.16 mm
d: old shim thickness = 1.850 mm
a=0.18-0.16+ 1.850
a = 1.B70
New shim thickness = 1.875 mm

NOTE
If the required thickness of the new shim is more than
2.800 mm, the valve seat is probably heavily
carboned. Reface the seat, recheck valve clearance
and reselect the shim.

Service Information III


;' If the engine must be running to do some work, make sure the area is well ventilated. Never run the engine in
an enclosed area. The exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas that can cause loss of consciousness
and may lead to death. Run the engine in an open area or with an exhaust evacuation system in an enclosed area.
Used engine oil may cause skin cancer if repeatedly left in contact with the skin for prolonged periods. Although
this is unlikely unless you handle used oil on a daily basis, it is still advisable to thoroughly wash your hands with
soap and water as soon as possible after handling used oil.
When removing and installing the oil pump use care not to allow dust or dirt to enter the engine.
If any portion of the oil pump is worn beyond the specified service limits, replace the oil pump as an assembly.
After the oil pump has been installed, check that there are no oil leaks and that oil pressure is correct.
For oil pressure check, refer to section 4 of the Common Service Manual; for the switch location, see page 21-2 of this
manual.
For oil pressure light inspection, refer to section 25 of the Common Service Manual.

Troubleshooting
Oil level low Low oil pressure
Oil consumption. Pressure relief valve stuck open.
External oil leak. Clogged oil filter screen.
Worn piston ring or incorrect piston ring installation. Oil pump worn or damaged.
Worn valve guide or seal. Internal oil leak.
Incorrect oil being used.
Oil contamination (White appearance) Low oil level
Coolant mixing with oil.
-Faulty head gasket. No oil pressure
-Water leak in crankcase Oil level too low
Oil pump drive chain or drive/driven sprocket broken.
High oil pressure
Pressure relief valve stuck closed.
Plugged oil filter, gallery, or metering orifice.
Incorrect oil being used.

Troubleshooting
Engine top-end problems usually affect engine performance. These can be diagnosed by a compression or leak down
test, or by tracing noises to the top-end with a sounding rod or stethoscope.
If performance is poor at low speeds, check for white smoke in the crankcase breather tube. If the tube is smokey,
check for a seized piston ring.

Service Information
DOT 4 brake fluid is used for the hydraulic clutch and is referred to as clutch fluid in this section. Do not use other
types of fluid as they are not compatible.
Engine oil viscosity and level and the use of oil additives have an effect on dutch disengagement. Oil additives of any
kind are specifically not recommended. When the clutch does not disengage or the vehicle creeps with clutch disen-
gaged, inspect the engine oil for proper level and the presence of additives before servicinq the clutch system.
Clutch maintenance can be done with the engine in the frame.

Troubleshooting
Clutch lever soft or spongy Clutch lever too hard
Air in hydraulic system Sticking master piston
Low fluid level Sticking slave cylinder piston
Leaking hydraulic system Clogged hydraulic system

Service Information
A contaminated brake disc or pad reduces stopping power. Discard contaminated pads and clean a contaminated
disc with a high quality brake degreasing agent.
Brake dust may contain asbestos. inhaled asbestos fibers have been found to cause respiratory disease and cancer.
Never use an air hose or dry brush to clean brake assemblies. Use an OSHA-approved vacuum cleaner or alternate
method approved by OSHA. designed to minimize the hazard of airborne asbestos fibers.

Spilled brake fluid will severely damage instrument lenses and painted surfaces. It is also harmful to some rubber
parts. Be very careful whenever you remove the reservoir cap; make sure the front reservoir is horizontal first.
Never allow contaminants (dirt, water, etc.) to get into an open reservoir.
Once the hydraulic system has been opened, or if the brakes feel spongy, the system must be bled.
The brake fluid air bleeding procedure on the ABS/TCS ('92-95) model must be performed in the same manner as in
the ordinal air bleeding procedure. Note that replacement and bleeding air from the brake fluid in the modulator is ~
not necessary, as it is sealed in the modulator. On the LBS-ABSfTCS model (After '95), refer to page 15-2. ~
Always use fresh DOT 4 brake fluid from a sealed container when servicing the system. Do not mix different types of
fluid as they may not be compatible.
Always check brake operation before riding the motorcycle.

Troubleshooting
Brake lever/pedal soft or spongy Brake lever/pedal hard
Air in the hydraulic system Clogged/restricted brake system

Brake System

Brake Fluid Filling/Bleeding


(LBS-ABS/TCS model)

A contaminated brake disc or pad reduces stopping


power. Discard contaminated pads and clean a
contaminated disc with a high quality brake
degreasing agent.

CAUTION
Do not allow foreign material to enter the system when
filling the reservoir.
Avoid spilling fluid on painted, plastic or rubber parts.
Place a rag over these parts whenever the system is
serviced. (1) SCREWS

NOTE
On the LBS-ABSiTCS model, note that there is no brake
fluid in the modulator (except in the modulator head),
because the modulator is the motor-driven hydraulic
pressure type. Therefore, brake fluid replacement and
bleeding air from the modulator body is not necessary.
Once the hydraulic system has been opened, or if the
brake feels spongy, the system must be bled.
When using a commercially available brake bleeder,
follow the manufacturer's operating instructions.
(2) CAP

Lever Brake Line (1) LEFT (2) RIGHT

FLUID FEEDING
Support the motorcycle on its center stand.
Turn the handlebar to the left until the reservoir is level before
removing the reservoir cap.

Remove the reservoir cap, set plate and diaphragm.

Connect a commercially available brake bleeder {example,


Mityvac PIN 6826) to the outer bleed valve (upper side of the
each front caliper).

Fill the reservoir with DOT 4 brake fluid from a sealed


container.

CAUTION
Use only DOT 4 brake fluid from a sealed container.
Do not mix different types of fluid. They are not
compatible.

Operate the brake lever several times to bleed air from the
master cylinder.

15-2
Brake System

1. Pump the brake bleeder and loosen the bleed valve.


Add brake fluid when the fluid level in the reservoir is low.
(1) Until sufficient amount of fluid
flows out.
NOTE
Check the fluid level often while bleeding the brake to
prevent air from being pumped into the system.

Repeat the above procedure until sufficient amount of the


fluid flows out from the bleed valve.
Close the bleed valve.

NOTE

It is not a problem if the fluid flowing out from the bleed


valve contains air bubbles because the lines will be bled
in later steps.
If air is entering the bleeder from around the bleed valve
threads, seal the threads with teflon tape.

2. Perform step 1 for the other side bleed valve.

Next, periorm the air bleeding from the system (page 15-4).

(2) BLEEDER

If a commercial brake bleeder is not available, use the

Brake System

NOTE
Check the fluid level often while bleeding the brake to
prevent air from being pumped into the system.

1. Connect a commercially available brake bleeder


(example, Mityvac PIN 6826) to the left front caliper lower
side bleed valve.

Pump the brake bleeder and loosen the bleed valve.


Add brake fluid when the fluid level in the reservoir is low.
Repeat the above procedure until sufficient amount of the
fluid flows out from the bleed valve.
Close the bleed valve.

NOTE

It is not a problem if the fluid flowing out from the bleed


valve contains air bubbles because the lines will be bled
in later steps.
If air is entering the bleeder from around the bleed valve
threads, seal the threads with teflon tape.

2. Repeat step 1 for each valve in the sequence as follows:


• the right front caliper lower-side bleed valve
• the rear caliper front-side bleed valve
• the rear caliper rear-side bleed valve

Next, perform the air bleeding from the system (page 15-7).

If a commercial brake bleeder is not available, use the


following procedure:
1. Connect a transparent bleed hose to the left front caliper
lower-side bleed valve.

Pump the brake pedal several (5-10) times quickly, then


depress the brake pedal all the way and loosen the bleed
valve 1/4 turn. Wait several seconds and close the bleed

Service Information
CAUTION
Use a fully charged battery for troubleshooting. Do not diagnose the ABS with a charger connected to the battery.
On removal and installation of the wheels and wheel sensors, be careful not to damage the wheel sensors and'
pulser rings.

NOTE
Check the following before performing any ASS troubleshooting.
- Pre-start self-diagnosis of ABS
- ABS indicator light
If an abnormality is found during the above checks, perform the ASS troubleshooting following the Symptom-to-
System Chart (page 16-A-8). The ASS is normal if no trouble is found. Go to the checks on the other basic systems (e.q.,
brake system).
Troubles not resulting from a faulty ASS, i.e. brake disc squeak, unevenly worn brake pad, etc., cannot be recognized by
the ASS diagnosis system. (See the Common Service Manual.)
Record the symptom ofthe problem and the problem code in MEMO before troubleshooting.
When the ASS is faulty, the ASS indicator light blinks or it comes on. The ASS does not function at this time; take care
during the test ride.
Do not disassemble the modulator assembly. If it is faulty, replace it as an assembly.
After replacing the modulator, bleed air from the brake fluid according to the standard air bleeding procedure. Note that
replacement and bleeding air from the brake fluid is not possible, as it is sealed in the modulator.
When the rear wheel sensor or rear pulsar ring is replaced, perform the air gap inspection (page 16-A-51).
The ASS indicator light might blink in the following cases. If the indicator light blinks, clear the problem code and l'1:li.
perform the pre-start self-diagnosis of the ASS (page 16-A-5). The ASS is normal if the ASS indicator light goes oft.
- The motorcycle has continuously run on the bumpy road.
u:.
- The ASS control unit (ECU) was disrupted by extremely powerful radio wave (Electromagnetic Interference).
- After riding {i.e. after the pre-start self-diagnosis), the engine was kept running and the rear wheel turning (for more
than 30 seconds) with the motorcycle on the center stand.
The ASS indicator light might blink in the following cases. If the indicator light blinks, service the faulty parts, clear the
problem code, and perform the pre-start self-diagnosis of the ASS (page 16-A-5). The ASS is normal if the ASS indicator
light goes off.
- Incorrect tire pressure
- Tires not recommended for the motorcycle were installed.
- Deformation of the wheel
After troubleshooting, clear the problem code and perform the pre-start self-diagnosis again to be sure that the ASS
indicator light is operating normally.

Troubleshooting
Before Beginning Troubleshooting:

Summary of ABS pre-start self-diagnosis system


The ASS pre-start self-diagnosis system diagnoses the electrical system as well as the hydraulic system operation in the
modulator. When there is any abnormality, the problem and the problem part can be detected by outputting the problem
code.

After starting the engine, the ASS pre-start self-diagnosis system operates the pump motor and solenoid valve inside the
modulator, checks the limit switch ON/OFF condition with the ECU and detects whether the hydraulic operation is normal.
Then, the diagnosis system enters the stand-by phase for receiving the signal from the wheel sensor, and it completes the
pre-start self-diagnosis when the wheel sensor signal is input in the ECU at approximately 10 km/h (6 mile/h) or more of
the vehicle speed.

If the ASS is normal, the ASS indicator light goes off just after starting the engine and the motorcycle is in motion indicating
that the dignosis is completed.
If a problem is detected, the ASS indicator light blinks or comes on and stays on to notify the rider of the problem.The
self-diagnosis is also made while the motorcycle is running, and the indicator light blinks when a problem is detected.
When the indicator light blinks, the cause of the problem can be identified by retrieving the problem code following the
specified retrieval procedure. (page 16-A-6)

Retrieval of/Clearing Problem Code ABS/TCS INDICATOR LIGHT SWITCH

NOTE
The ASS indicator light indicates the problem code by
its number of blinks {see the next page).
The problem code is not cleared when the ignition
switch is turned OFF during output of the problem
code. However, output cannot be restarted by turn- -,
ing the ignition switch ON. Restart the output follow-
ing the problem code retrieval procedure.
After retrieving the problem code, be sure to record it
in MEMO, etc. Clear the problem code after trouble-
shooting.

After troubleshooting, perform the pre-start self-diagnosis again to be sure that there is no problem in the ASS indicator
lights and the problem code is cleared.
See page 16-A-46 for the problems that are not represented with the problem codes.
Check the following before performing ASS troubleshooting:
- Pre-start self-diagnosis of ASS
- ASS indicator light
If an abnormality is found during the above checks, perform the ASS toubleshooting following the Symptom-to-

Service Information
CAUTION
Use a fully charged battery for troubleshooting. Do not diagnose the ABS with a charger connected to the battery.
On removal and installation of the wheels and wheel speed sensors, be careful not to damage the wheel speed sensors
and pulser rings.

NOTE
Check the following before performing any ASS troubleshooting.
- Pre-start self-diagnosis of ASS
- ASS indicator light
If an abnormality is found during the above checks, perform the ASS troubleshooting following the Symptom-to-
System Chart (page 16-B-8). The ASS is normal if no trouble is found. Go to the checks on the other systems {e.g., LBS
or basic brake system}.
Troubles not resulting from a faulty ASS, l.e. brake disc squeak, unevenly worn brake pad, etc., cannot be recognized by
the ABS diagnosis system. (See the Common Service Manual.)
Record the symptom of the problem and the problem code in MEMO before troubleshooting.
When the ASS is faulty, the ABS indicator light blinks or it comes on. The ASS does not function at this time; take care
during the test ride.
Do not disassembly the modulator assembly. If 'It is faulty, replace it an assembly.
Refer to page 15-2 for brake fluid filling and bleeding. Note that there is no brake fluid in the modulator (except in the
modulator head), because the modulator is the motor-driven hydraulic pressure type. Therefore, brake fluid
replacement and bleeding air from the modulator body is not necessary.
When the wheel is removed, perform the air gap inspection (page 16-B-51).
The ASS indicator light might blink in the following cases. If the indicator light blinks, clear the problem code and
perform the pre-start self-diagnosis ofthe ABS (page 16-5). The ABS is normal if the ABS indicator light goes off.
- The motorcycle has continuously run on the bumpy road.
- The ABS control unit (ECU) was disrupted by extremely powerful radio were (Electromagnetic Interference).
- After riding Ii.e. after the pre-start self-diagnosis), the engine was kept running and the rear wheel turning (for more
than 30 seconds} with the motorcycle on the center stand.
The ASS indicator light might blink in the following cases. If the indicator light blinks, service the faulty parts, clear the
problem code, and perform the pre-start self-diagnosis of the ABS (page 16-S-5}. The ASS is normal if the ABS indicator
light goes off.
- Incorrect tire pressure
- Tires not recommended for the motorcycle were instailed.
- Deformation ofthe wheel
After troubleshooting, clear the problem code and perform the pre-start self-diagnosis again to be sure that the ASS
indicator light is operating normally.

Summary of ABS pre-start self-diagnosis system


The ASS pre-start self-diagnosis system diagnoses the electrical system as well as the operating status of the modulator.
When there is any abnormality, the problem and the problem part can be detected by outputting the problem code.

When the vehiclespeed is approximately 10 km/h (6 mile/h) or more, thewheel speed sensor signal is inputto the ASS control
unit (ECU), then the ASS pre-start self-diagnosis system operates the control motor inside the modulator, checks the crank
angle condition with ASS control unit (ECU) and thereby it detects whether the modulator operation is normal, and it
completes the pre-start self-diagnosis.

When the ASS is normal, the ASS indicator light goes off just after starting up indicating that the diagnosis is completed.
If a problem is detected, the ASS indicator light blinks or comes on and stays on to notify the rider of the problem. The self-
diagnosis is also made while the motorcycle is running, and the indicator light blinks when a problem is detected.
When the indicator light blinks, the cause of the problem can be identified by retrieving the problem code following the
specified retrieval procedure. {page 16-S-6}

Retrieval of/Clearing Problem Code ASS/Tes INDICATOR LIGHT SWITCH

NOTE
The ASS indicator light indicates the problem code
by its number of blinks (see the next page).
The problem code is not cleared when the ignition
switch is turned OFF during output of the problem
code. However, output cannot be restarted by
turning the ignition switch ON. Restart the output
following the problem code retrieval procedure.
After retrieving the problem code, be sure to record it ,
in MEMO, etc. Clear the problem code after \
troubleshoot! ng.
TCS ON/OFF SWITCH
Retrieval:
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Turn the ignition switch ON while pressing the ASS/
TCS indicator light switch. The ASS indicator light 1
and 2 should come ON. (The ASS indicator light 2 is
OFF this ttrne.)
3. Hold the ASS/TCS indicator light switch pressed (for
approximately 5 seconds). The ASS indicator light 1
should go OFF.
4. Release the ASS/TCS indicator light switch
immediately (within 1 second) after the ASS indicator
light go OFF.
~. Output of the problem code starts and the ASS
indicator light 1 blinks.

Clearing:
5. Press the ABS/TCS indicator light switch during output
of the problem code (while the ASS indicator light is ASS INDICATOR LIGHT 1 ASS INDICATOR LIGHT 2
blinking).
<::. The Problem code is cleared and the ASS indicator
light 1 and 2 comes ON and stay ON.

NOTE
The ECU can store up to two problem codes. The latest problem code is output first, then the previous one is output.
When the two problem codes are output, diagnose on the latest problem code (i.e. code output first).
After troubleshooting, perform the pre-start self-diagnosis again to be sure that there is no problem in the ABS indicator
lights and the problem code is cleared.
See page 16-B-33 for the problems that are not represented with the problem codes.
Check the following before performing ABS troubleshooting:
- Pre-start self-diagnosis of ABS
- ASS indicator light
If an abnormality is found during the above checks, perform the ABS troubleshooting following the Symptom-to-
System Chart (see the following paqe). The ABS is normal if no trouble is found. Go on to the check the other basic
systems (e.g., LBS or basic brake system).

Service Information

The battery gives off explosive gases; keep sparks. flames, and cigarettes away_ Provide adequate ventilation
when charging or using the battery in an enclosed space.
• The battery contains sulfuric acid (electrolyte). Contact with skin or eyes may cause severe burns. Wear
protective clothing and a face shield.
- If electrolyte gets on your skin. flush with water.
- If electrolyte gets in your eyes. flush with water for at least 15 minutes and call a physician immediately.
Electrolyte is poisonous. If swallowed, drink large quantities of water or milk and follow with milk of magne-
sia or vegetable oil and call a physician.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
-------

• Always turn off the ignition switch before disconnecting any electrical component.

I.
CAUTION
So~e electrical components may be damaged if terminals or connectors are connected or disconnected while
the ignition switch is ON and current is present.

For extended storage, remove the battery. give it a full charge. and store it in a cool, dry place.
• For battery remaining in a stored motorcycle, disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery terminal.

NOTE
• The maintenance free battery must be replaced when it reaches the end of its service life.
~~~~------

CAUTION
The battery caps should not be removed. Attempting to remove the sealing caps from the cells may damage the
battery.

• Battery can be damaged if overcharged or undercharged, or if left to discharge for long periods.These same conditions
contribute to shortening the "lite span" of the battery. Even under normal use, the performance of a battery deteriorates
after 2-3 years.
Battery voltage may recover after battery charging, but under heavy load. battery voltage will drop quickly and
eventually die out. For this reason, the charging system is often suspected to be the problem. Battery overcharge often
results from problems in the battery itself, which may appear to be an overcharge symptom. If one of the battery cells is
shorted and battery voltage does not increase, the regulator/rectifier supplies excess voltage to the battery. Under
these conditions, the electrolyte level goes down quickly.
Before troubleshooting the charging system, check for proper use and maintenance of the battery. Check if the battery
is frequently under heavy load, such as having the headlight and taillight ON for long periods of time without riding the
motorcycle.
• The battery will self-discharge when the motorcycle is not in use. For this reason, charge the battery every two weeks
to prevent sulfation from forming.
• Filling a new battery with electrolyte will produce some voltage, but in order to achieve its maximum performance,
always charge the battery. Also, the battery life is lengthened when it is initial-charged.
• When checking the charging system, always follow the steps in the troubleshooting flow chart (page 17-4).
• For battery testing/charging, refer to section 22 of the Common Service Manual.
• For charging system location. see page 17-2.

Service Information
• When checking the ignition system, always follow the steps in the troubleshooting flow chart (page 18-4).
The digital transistorized ignition system uses an electrically controlled ignition timing system. No adjustments can be
made to the ignition timing.
• A rough diagnosis can be made by identifying the cylinder whose spark timing is incorrect.
• The ignition control module (leM) may be damaged if dropped. Also, if the connector is disconnected when current is
flowing, the excessive voltage may damage the unit. Always turn off the ignition switch bercre servicing.
A faulty ignition system is often related to poorly connected connectors. Check those connections before proceeding.
Make sure the battery is adequately charged. Using the starter motor with a weak battery results in a slower engine
cranking speed as well as no spark at the spark plugs.
• Use spark plugs of the correct heat range. Using spark plugs with an incorrect heat range can damage the engine.
Refer to section 2 of the Common Service Manual.
For neutral switch inspection, refer to section 25 of the Common Service Manual; for switch location, see page 18-2 or
18-3 of this manual (System Location).
For the ignition switch and engine stop switch inspection, check for continuity on the continuity chart of the Wiring
Diagram (section 22). Refer to page 21-4 for side stand switch inspection.

Service Information
CAUTION
Use the fully charged battery for troubleshooting. Do not diagnose the TeS with a charger connected to the
battery .
On removal and installation of the wheel sensors/wheels. be careful not to damage the wheel sensors and pulser
rings.

NOTE
Check the following before performing any TCS troubleshooting.
res
- Pre-start self-diagnosis of
res
- Check on all lights and indicators of
If an abnormality is found during the above checks, perform the TCS troubleshooting following the Symptom-to-
System Chart (page 19-6). The TCS is normal if no trouble is found. Go on to the check the other basic systems (e.
g. fuel system, ignition system, etc.).
Record the symptom of the problem and the problem code in MEMO before troubleshooting.
When the TCS is faulty, the TCS indicator light blinks or it comes on. The TCS does not function this time; take care
during the test ride.
The TCS OFF indicator turns on when the TCS ON/OFF switch connector is disconnected and then reconnected with i
the ignition switch ON. The TCS can be recovered this time by pushing the TCS ON/OFF switch. Take care when
removing the left side pocket.
When the rear wheel sensor or rear purser ring is replaced, perform the air gap inspection (16-51).
The TCS indicator light might blink in the following cases. If the indicator light blinks, turn the ignition switch OFF and
perform the pre-start self-diagnosis (page 19-5}. The TCS is normal if the TCS indicator light goes off.
The lCS/ignition control module was disrupted due to an extremely powerful radio wave (Electromagnetic Interfer-
ence).
After riding (i.e. after the pre-start self- diagnosis), either front or rear wheel was stopped and the other wheel was
turned (for more than 10 seconds) with the engine kept running.
Example:' Only the rear wheel was turned with the motorcycle set on the main stand.
o Only the front wheel was turned for inspection of the meter.
• When, after the test ride (i.e. after pre-start self- cnaancstsj.the motorcycle is set on the center stand with the engine
running and the throttle is opened quickly with the gear engaged (rear wheel idles), the ignition timing is retarded
because of the difference in wheel speed between the front and rear wheels, which might cause afterfire and afterburn .. ~
• The TCS indicator light might blink under the following conditions. Turn the ignition switch OFF to return to the normal ~
condition and perform the pre-start self-diagnosis (page 19-5) of the TCS. The TCS is normal if the TCS indicator goes
off:
Improper tire air pressure
Tire not recommended for the motorcycle is installed.

Troubleshooting
Before Beginning Troubleshooting:

Summary of TCS pre-start self-diagnosis system

The TCS pre-start self-diagnosis system diagnoses inside the TCS/ignition control module (leM) and the electrical circuit
of the wheel sensors.

When the ignition switch is turned ON, the TCS starts the pre-start self-diagnosis to check inside the TCS/ICM for condi-
tion. Then it g08S to the stand-by mode for the wheel sensor signal. After starting the motorcycle, the pre-start self-diag-
nosis completes when the wheel sensor signal is transmitted to the TCSjlCM with the front/rear wheel rotating at the speed
of approximately 10 km/h (6 mile/h) or above.

If the TCS is normal, the indicator light goes off after the motorcycle starts notifying the rider that the pre-start self-diagnosis
is completed. When a problem is detected, the indicator light blinks or stays ON to notify the rider. The self-diagnosis is made
while the motorcycle is moving, too, and the indicator light blinks when a problem is detected. (The TCS OFF indicator
comes ON simultaneously.) The probable cause of the trouble can be detected from the lighting condition of the TCS
indicator light, indicator, etc. (see the following page).

ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) ['92-'95]


Summary
The Anti-lock Brake System (ASS) is designed to help prevent wheel lock up during hard braking or braking on loose or
slippery surfaces. ASS momentarily reduces the brake caliper fluid pressure when the wheels are about to lock. When the
system senses that the tendency for wheel lock is reduced, brake caliper fluid pressure is restored. ABS repeats this cycle
as required for secure brake performance with minimum possibility of wheel lock.

23-1
Technical Features

The braking effectiveness and balance of the motorcycle can be significantly affected by the way the front and rear brakes
are applied. This ABS system is characterized by high deceleration and follow-up performance thanks to its quick response
to a variety of road surface conditions. It is also characterized by its compact size, which is achieved by collective
arrangement of the hydraulic control components in the modulator.

System Construction

Modulator:
The modulator controls and supplies the brake fluid that is essential for the ABS operation. The motorcycle is equipped with
separate and independent front and rear modulators.
The modulators are sealed type containing the brake fluid and constituent parts, and are maintenance free. Additionally. they
have no reservoir pipe and are light-weight and compact. These features make the modulators well suited for motorcycles.

The modulator consists of the following parts;


Expander piston: Operates in accordance with the change in the piston fluid pressure and adjusts the caliper fluid
pressure.
Back-up piston: Pushes the expander piston up when fault occurs.
Limit switch: Detects the pressure in the system by detecting the back-up piston position.
Pump motor: Drives the pump to generate puressre in the system.
Inlet valve/Outlet valve: Adjusts the puressure in the system.

Technical Features

• Self-diagnosis function
When the engine starts, the ASS control unit evaluates the hydraulic circuit condition by activating the pump motors and
solenoid valves and receiving the signal from the limit switch, The ASS indicator light blinks when an abnormality is detected
in the circuit. When the circuit is normal, the ASS indicator light stays ON indicating that the control unit is in the stand-by
mode for the wheel sensor signal. The wheel sensors send signals to the ECU after the motorcycle starts to move (approxi-
mately 10km/h or above}. The ASS indicator light goes off when the ECU receives signals from the wheel sensor and the
wheel sensor system is found to be normal.
The ASS control unit monitors the main function while the motorcycle is moving, too.
When it detects a problem with the system, it blinks the ASS indicator light and stops the system immediately. When the
control unit detects a problem while the ASS is active, it stops the system and blinks the ASS indicator light, notifying the
rider of the problem and that the system is diactivated.

• Change-over function to the regular system


When the ASS contol unit detects a problem in the system by the self-diagnosis function, the control unit activates the ASS
main relay and shuts off the ground circuits of the front and rear solenoid valves to stop the solenoid valve. The ASS stops
its function when the system is faulty and switches to the regular brake system.

• Problem code storage function


The problems can be memorized and stored in the control unit (up to two codes), and can be retrieved and indicated by the
number of blinks of the ASS indicator light (page 16-A-6).

ASS Operation

Regular brake system operation:

Brake fluid pressure is accumulated fully in the system. When the pressure drops, the pump motor operates to accumulate
pressure. The expander piston and back-up piston are supported by this brake fluid pessure. The cut-off valve is pushed by
the expander piston as it opens at this time and the master cylinder and caliper are interconnected with a passage. The fluid
pressure in the master cylinder is transmitted to the caliper by way of the cut-off valve; allowing the brake to operate.
As the outlet valve closes, the high pressure of the brake fluid is maintained in the chamber and the expander piston is not
affected by the operation of the regular brake system.
This condition is the same as when the ASS is in the stand-by mode.

Technical Features

When ABS is working:


• Pressure DECREASE
When the control unit detects that the wheels are about to lock, the control unit sends signals to activate the pump motor
and to open the outlet valve, while closing the inlet valve. The brake fluid in chamber B flows through the outlet valve into
the reservoir side and pushes the expander piston back. Then, the cut-off valve, supported by the expander piston, is closed
by the spring force shutting the passage between the master cylinder and caliper. Simultaneously, as the expander piston
moves backward, the volume of chamber A increases and, the caliper fluid pressure is reduced.

• Pressure HOLD
When both the outlet valve and inlet alve are closed, the brake fluid pressure in chamber A is maintained.
The caliper fluid pressure can then be maintained at a given level.

• Pressure INCREASE
When the pressure is increasing, the outlet valve closes and the inlet valve opens; this allows the brake fluid from the pump
to flow through the inlet valve to chamber B. The brake fluid then pushes the expander piston forward and fluid flows to the
caliper.
The ABS control unit controls the brake fluid pressure and prevents a wheel from locking by performing the sequential
operations of the above "Pressure Decrese", "Pressure Hold" and "Pressure Increase" in accordance with the wheel rotation.
When the control unit senses that the possibility of wheel lock has passed, it closes the outlet valve and opens the inlet valve
to move the expander piston to the forward-most position. This in turn opens the cut-off valve and the passage between the
master cylinder and caliper to restore regular brake operation (page 23-7).

Technical Features

When trouble occurs:


When the fluid pressure in the chambr (page 23-7) cannot be maintained for some reason, the back-up piston is pushed
forward by the mechanical back-up spring force, which in turn pushes the expander piston up and the cut-off valve opens
fully. Fluid pressure in the master cylinder can then be transmitted by way of the cut-off valve to the caliper. Regular brake
operation can then be maintained.
As the back-up piston spring is preloaded enough to with stand the maximum brake pressure from the master cylinder the
expander piston cannot move backward during regular brake operation.

ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) [After '951


Summary
The ASS is designed to help prevent wheel lock up during hard braking or braking on loose or slippery surfaces. ASS
momentarily reduces the brake caliper fluid pressure when the wheels are about to lock. When the system senses that the
tendency for wheel lock is reduced, brake caliper fluid pressure is restored. ASS repeats this cycle as required for secure
brake performance with rnlrurnurn possibrlrtv of wheel lock.

The conventional ASS is composed of the modulator with controlled hydraulic pressure circuit consisting of the pump and
inlet/outlet solenoid valves. The system indirectly controls brake fluid pressure that regulates the fluid pressure inside the
controlled hydraulic circuit by actuating the solenoid valves.
In this ASS, brake fluid pressure is directly controlled by motor's regulating of the rotational angle of piston-crank mecha-
nism, which in turn controls the brake fluid. Therefore, in comparison with conventional systems, the modulator size. number
of parts required, and weight are all substantially reduced. In addition, the fluid pressure can be regulated continuously,
unlike the conventional ASS which has staqed control. This ASS embodies such a high accuracy control system in a more
simplified system.

The control unit also includes a change-over function to the standard LBS operation that monitors the system condition by

Technical Features

• Modulator motor control


The ABS control unit monitors both front and rear wheel speed sensors and the modulator crank angle sensors that provide
precise readings of each modulator's crankshaft positioning (i.e., control piston position). The ASS control unit directs its
control signals to the motor driver that delivers high-amperage electrical power output to the control motors and operate the
system.

• Self-diagnosis function
When the ignition switch is ON, the ASS control unit evaluates the control motor relays. The indicator light blinks when an
abnormality is detected in the system. When the system is normal, the ASS indicator light stays ON indicating that the ASS
control unit is in the stand-by mode for the wheel speed sensor and modulator crank angle sensor signals. The wheel speed
sensors send signals to the ASS control unit after the motorcycle starts to move (approximately 10 km/h or above), then the
ASS control unit evaluates the system condition by activating the modulator control motors and receiving the signal from the
crank angle sensors. The ABS indicator light goes off when the system is found to be normal.
The ASS control unit monitors the main function while the motorcycle is moving, whether the brakes are engaged or not.
When it detects a problem with the system, it blinks the ABS indicator light and stops the system immediately. When the
control unit detects a problem while the ASS is active, it stops the system and blinks the ASS indicator light, notifying the rider
of the problem and that the system is deactivated.

• Change-over function to the standard (LBS) system


When the ASS control unit detects a problem in the system by the self-diagnosis function, the control unit stops the ABS
function. The back-up spring pushes the control piston automatically to open the cut-off valve and restore standard LBS
operation {page 23-16}.

• Problem code storage function


The problems can be memorized and stored in the ASS control unit {up to two codes), and can be retrieved and indicated by
the number of blinks of the ASS indicator light (page 16-B-6).

Another function of the ABS/TCS indicator light switch is to retrieve the problem codes that are stored in the ASS control unit
according to the problem code storage function explained above. The problem codes are indicated by the number of times the
ASS indicator light blinks. When two problem codes are stored, the last problem code is output first.

3-Stage Cut-off Valve:
In conventional ASS configurations, a ball-type cut-off valve is used to cut hydraulic pressure to the brake calipers. in thls
ASS, an additional orifice valve is positioned directly behind the cut-off valve to realize three stages of valve operation.

tst stage
When the ASS is enabled, the control piston moves down to close both the cut-off valve and the orifice valve, cutting the
hydraulic line between the master cylinder and the brake caliper.
• 2nd stage
The control piston moves up slightly to open only the cut-off valve, leaving the orifice valve closed. This stage permits only a
small amount of hydraulic pressure to seep through the center of the orifice valve to the brake caliper.
• 3rd stage
The control piston returns to its uppermost position, opening both the cut-off valve and the orifice valve, and restoring the full
hydraulic pressure needed for standard lBS brake operation.

ABS Operation
• Pressure DECREASE
When the ABS control unit (ECU) detects any tendency towards wheel lock, it rapidly reduces hydraulic pressure to the brake
caliper by rotating the crankshaft to lower the control pistons, closing the 3-stage cut-off valves.

• Pressure HOLD
Following a predetermined decompression interval, the crankshaft is rotated up slightly to move the control pistons into the
pressure HOLD position, which permits the slipping wheel to recover its rotational speed.

Pressure INCREASE
One the ABS control unit detects full wheel speed recovery, it rotates the crankshaft back into its highest position. This rapid
cycle of pressure DECREASE, HOLD, and INCREASE makes possible nearly instantaneous correction of changes in wheel
rotation while ensuring highly accurate control of hydraulic pressure to both independent sets of brake caliper pistons.

During conventional braking operation, the modulator's control piston remains in its uppermost position to hold the cut-off

piston's position, thus maintaining standard LBS operation. During ABS operation, if any malfunction-such as loss of the
modulator motor's power-is detected, the control piston back-up spring pushes the control piston into its upper most
position to open the cut-off valve and restore standard LBS operation.

lBS (linked Brake System) [After '951


Summary
The Linked Brake System (LBS} was designed to engage both front and rear brakes when either the front brake lever or rear
brake pedal is used.
Not merely a linked system that divides pedal braking force between the rear caliper and one of the front calipers, this system
features a set of a-piston calipers that are connected to two independent hydraulic systems. These combine to provide an
optimal balance offront and rear braking forces whenever either the brake lever and and/or the brake pedal is used. Featuring
no electronic control about the LBS, the completely hydraulic system's key component is a mechanical linkage that transmits
front caliper braking force to a secondary master cylinder mounted on the left fork slider.

Delay Valve:
The delay valve positioned between the pedal brake master cylinder and the center pistons of the front calipers, the delay
valve engages only the left front caliper at first, effectively reducing the initial front wheel braking force (Fig. A-B).
As pedal pressure gradually increases, the delay valve introduces pressure to the right front caliper, which increases to match
the pressure to the left front caliper at a predetermined level {Fig. C}. The resulting feel is of comfortably even deceleration that
begins at the rear, with little of the rapid forward dive that is usually brought on when the front brakes are suddenly applied.

Technical Features

Link Mechanism/Secondary Master Cylinder:


The system's servomechanism uses the rotational torque exerted on the front caliper when they are engaged to actuate a
secondary master cylinder by way of its caliper mounting linkage.
This secondary master cylinder then applies a corresponding amount of pressure to the rear brake caliper.

LINK MECHANISM CALIPER CALIPER
PCV

Proportional Control Valve (PCV):


The pev installed between the secondary master cylinder and the outer pistons of the rear caliper, regulates pressure in three
stages of operation.
Initially, the PCV's output pressure increases in direct proportion to the increasing input pressure originating from the
secondary master cylinder (Fig. Al.
As input pressure continues to increase, the cut piston activates, closing the valve and causing the output pressure to hold
(Fig. B).
A further increase in input pressure forces the decompression piston down, which expands a sub-chamber that draws
pressure off the output side of the pev (Fig. C)

Technical Features

LBS Operation
When hand brake is applied:
On initial operation, the hand brake works like any conventional motorcycle front brake system. A squeeze on the brake lever
pressurizes the master cylinder which transmits its increased hydraulic pressure to the two outer pistons of the front calipers,
causing a corresponding braking force to be applied to the front wheel.
In response to the braking force applied by the front caliper onto the spinning brake rotor, the caliper is pulled in the direction
of wheel rotation, around its lower caliper pivot. This forward caliper motion also acts on the link arm which is connected to
the secondary master cylinder. This direct pressure on the secondary master cylinder is regulated by the PCV which then
transmits its hydraulic pressure to the outer pistons of the rear caliper.

Technical Features

When foot brake is applied:


When the brake pedal is pressed, hydraulic pressure from the rear master cylinder is routed through two lines. One connects
directly to the rear caliper and acts on the center piston. The other line runs to the center pistons of the front calipers by way
of the delay valve that slows front brake engagement to minimize its associated dive. As during hand brake operation,
hydraulic pressure from the secondary master cylinder passes through the PCV, and acts on the outer pistons of the rear
caliper. Because hydraulic pressure from the rear master cylinder is also being applied by the rear cali per's center piston, the
braking force applied to the rear wheel is greater than that applied when using the brake lever only.

The system offers the same braking feel as conventional brake systems, but adds a more progressive range of brake control
and enhanced balance of braking capability. Because the two systems are independent of each other, both the brake pedal
and the lever can be used in any combination without resulting in excessive braking force or other unusual responses.

Technical Features

TCS (Traction Control System) [After '91]


Summary

The Traction Control System (TCSj is designed to help prevent excessive rear wheel slippage during hard acceleration or
acceleation on loose or slippery surfaces. TCS helps maintain rear wheel traction by controlling the ignition timing when it
senses rear wheel slippage. The system alerts the rider that TCS is active by turning the TCS activation light on.

Technical Features

The TCS/ignition control module (lCM) judges the rear tire traction conditions as it receives the signal from the front and
rear wheel sensors.
When the rcs is activated the TCS/ICM turns on the rcs activation light and controls engine power through changes in
ignition timing. The TCS automatically turns ON by turning the ignition switch ON, and can be turned OFF manually as
the rider wishes by pushing the TCS ON/OFF switch.
Note that the TCS cannot be turned OFF when it is active or while the motorcycle is moving.

Technical Features

System Construction

TCS/ignition control module (ICM):


The TCS/ICM detects front and rear wheel speed by receiving signals from the wheel sensors. When the rear wheel speed
exceeds a given ratio of front-to-rear wheel speed, the TCS/ICM judges that the rear driving wheel is beginning to slip and
it activates the TCS.
The TCS/ICM body is the ECU that is integrated with the spark unit. As the ignition CPU and the traction control CPU
communicate with each other and the ignition CPU monitors the traction control CPU, the engine will operate normally
even if the TCS becomes inoperative due to a problem in the system.
When the TCS in inoperative, the TCS indicator light and TCS OFF indicator turn ON.

The TCS/ICM constantly monitors the input signal inside the TCS/ICM, and shuts off the TCS when it detects a prob-
lem with the system.
Simultaneously, the TCS/ICM turns ON or makes the TCS indicator light blink notifying the rider of the problem with the
system, and turning the TCS OFF indicator ON to notify the rider of the inoperative state of the TCS.

. Self-diagnosis function
The TCS/ICM starts self-diagnosis as the ignition switch is turned ON. It diagnoses the TCS/ICM itself and the wheel sen-
sor power source. When it detects a problem, it stops TCS operation, makes the TCS indicator light blink and turns on the
TCS OFF indicator light to notify the rider of a fault in the TCS. When the TCS/ICM is found to be normal, it moves to the
stand-by mode for the wheel sensor signal and the TCS indicator light turns ON. (The TCS does not function when the
TCS indicator light is ON).
The wheel sensors send signals to the TCS/ICM after the motorcycle is in motion [approximately 1Okm/h(6 mile/h) or abo-
ve] , and the TCS indictor light goes OFF after the wheel sensor signal is input and the wheel sensors are found to be as
normal.
If the TCS indicator light stays ON, there is an abnormality with the wheel sensors.

Technical Features

TCS Operation
When TCS is active:
After receiving the signal from the front and rear wheel sensors, the TCS/ICM judges whether traction control is required
by detecting the rear wheel speed and comparing it to the front wheel speed (i.e vehicle speed). The engine will operate
normally when the TCS is not active. When the rear wheel speed exceeds a given ratio of the front-to-rear wheel speed,
the TCS/ICM judges that the rear wheel is slipping excessively and controls the engine power by determining the suitable
ignition timing. The TCS performs the above operations instantaneously to help prevent the skid from becoming excessive
and to hold it within a specified range .

When a problem occurs:


When the TCS/ICM detects a problem with the TCS, it makes the TCS indicator light blink, turns the TCS OFF indicator
ON, and immediately shuts off the rcs function. When the TCS/ICM detects a problem while the TCS is active, it returns
the engine slowly to regular ignition timing, then deactivates the TCS.
