GENERAL INFORMATION 1-2

WARNING/CAUTION/NOTE

Please read this manual and follow its instructions carefully. To emphasize special information, the symbol

and the words WARNING, CAUTION and NOTE have special meanings. Pay special attention to the mes-

sages highlighted by these signal words.

Indicates a potential hazard that could result in death or injury.



Indicates a potential hazard that could result in motorcycle damage.

NOTE:

Indicates special information to make maintenance easier or instructions clearer.

Please note, however, that the warnings and cautions contained in this manual cannot possibly cover all

potential hazards relating to the servicing, or lack of servicing, of the motorcycle. In addition to the WARN-

INGS and CAUTIONS stated, you must use good judgement and basic mechanical safety principles. If you

are unsure about how to perform a particular service operation, ask a more experienced mechanic for

advice.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

* Proper service and repair procedures are important for the safety of the service mechanic and

the safety and reliability of the motorcycle.

* When 2 or more persons work together, pay attention to the safety of each other.

* When it is necessary to run the engine indoors, make sure that exhaust gas is forced out-

doors.

* When working with toxic or flammable materials, make sure that the area you work in is well-

ventilated and that you follow all of the material manufacturer’s instructions.

* Never use gasoline as a cleaning solvent.

* To avoid getting burned, do not touch the engine, engine oil and exhaust system until they

have cooled.

* After servicing the fuel or exhaust systems, check all lines and fittings related to the system

for leaks.

1-3 GENERAL INFORMATION



* If parts replacement is necessary, replace the parts with Suzuki Genuine Parts or their equiva-

lent.

* When removing parts that are to be reused, keep them arranged in an orderly manner so that

they may be reinstalled in the proper order and orientation.

* Be sure to use special tools when instructed.

* Make sure that all parts used in reassembly are clean. Lubricate them when specified.

* Use the specified lubricant, bond, or sealant.

* When performing service to electrical parts, if the service procedures do not require use of

battery power, disconnect the coupler from the battery.

* When tightening the cylinder head or case bolts and nuts, tighten the larger sizes first.

Always tighten the bolts and nuts diagonally from the inside toward outside and to the speci-

fied tightening torque.

* Whenever you remove oil seals, gaskets, packing, O-rings, locking washers, self-locking

nuts, cotter pins, circlips and certain other parts as specified, be sure to replace them with

new ones. Also, before installing these new parts, be sure to remove any left over material

from the mating surfaces.

* Never reuse a circlip. When installing a new circlip, take care not to expand the end gap larger

than required to slip the circlip over the shaft. After installing a circlip, always ensure that it is

completely seated in its groove and securely fitted.

* Use a torque wrench to tighten fasteners to the specified torque. Wipe off grease and oil if a

thread is smeared with them.

* After reassembling, check parts for tightness and proper operation.

* To protect the environment, do not unlawfully dispose of used motor oil: batteries and tires.

* To protect Earth’s natural resources, properly dispose of used motorcycle and parts.

FUEL AND OIL RECOMMENDATION

FUEL (FOR USA AND CANADA)

Use only unleaded gasoline of at least 87 pump octane (R/2 + M/2) or 91 octane or higher rated by the

Gasoline containing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether), less than 10 % ethanol, or less than 5 % methanol

with appropriate cosolvents and corrosion inhibitor is permissible.

FUEL (FOR OTHER COUNTRIES)

Gasoline used should be graded 91 octane (Research Method) or higher. Unleaded gasoline is recom-

mended.

ENGINE OIL (FOR USA)

Oil quality is a major contributor to your engine’s performance and life. Always select good quality engine oil.

Suzuki recommends the use of SUZUKI PERFORMANCE 4 MOTOR OIL or equivalent engine oil. Use of

SF/SG or SH/SJ in API with MA in JASO.

Suzuki recommends the use of SAE 10W-40 engine oil. If SAE 10W-40 engine oil is not available, select an

ENGINE OIL (FOR OTHER COUNTRIES)

Oil quality is a major contributor to your engine’s performance

and life. Always select good quality engine oil. Use of SF/SG or

SH/SJ in API with MA in JASO.

Suzuki recommends the use of SAE 10W-40 engine oil. If SAE

10W-40 engine oil is not available, select an alternative accord-

ing to the right chart.

BREAK-IN PROCEDURES

During manufacture only the best possible materials are used and all machined parts are finished to a very

high standard but it is still necessary to allow the moving parts to “BREAK-IN” before subjecting the engine

to maximum stresses. The future performance and reliability of the engine depends on the care and restraint

exercised during its early life. Refer to the following throttle position recommendations.

• Keep to these break-in throttle position:

Initial 10 hours: Less than 1/2 throttle

Up to 20 hours: Less than 3/4 throttle

10W-30

10W-40. 10W-50

15W-40. 15W-50

20W-50
