DRIVE CHAIN
This motorcycle has a master link type
drive chain. We recommend that you
take your motorcycle to an authorized
Suzuki dealer or qualified mechanic if
the drive chain needs replacing.
The condition and adjustment of the
drive chain should be checked each
day before you ride. Always follow the
guide lines for inspecting and servic-
ing the chain.
A WARNING
Riding with the chain in poor con-
dition or improperly adjusted can
lead to an accident.
Inspect, adjust, and maintain the
chain properly before each ride,
according to this section.
Inspecting the Drive Chain
When inspecting the chain,
look
for
the
following:
Loose pins
Damaged rollers
Dry or rusted links
Kinked or binding links
Excessive wear
Improper chain adjustment
If you find anything wrong with the
drive chain condition or adjustment,
correct the problem if you know how.
If necessary, consult your authorized
Suzuki dealer or qualified mechanic.
Damage to the drive chain means that
the sprockets may also be damaged.
Inspect the sprockets for the follow-
ing:
Excessively worn teeth
Broken or damaged teeth
Loose sprocket mounting nuts
If you find any of these problems with
your sprocket, consult your-Suzuki
dealer or qualified mechanic.
Good
Worn
NOTE: The two sprockets should be
inspected for wear when a new chain
is installed and replace them if nec-
essary.
DRIVE CHAIN CLEANING AND
OILING
This drive chain has special "0" rings
that permanently seal grease inside.
Clean and oil the chain periodically,
as follows:
1. Clean the chain with kerosene. If
the chain tends to rust, the interval
must be shortened. Kerosene is a
petroleum product and will provide
some lubrication as well as clean-
ing action.
A WARNING
Kerosene can be hazardous. Kero-
sene is flammable. Children or pets
may be harmed from contact with
kerosene.
Keep flames and smoking materi-
als away from kerosene. Keep chil-
dren and pets away from kerosene.
If swallowed, do not induce vomit-
ing. Call a physician immediately.
Dispose of used kerosene properly.
A CAUTION
Cleaning the chain with gasoline or
commercial cleaning solvents can
damage 0-rings and ruin the chain.
Clean the drive chain with kerosene
only.
2. After thoroughly washing the chain
and allowing it to dry, oil the links
with SUZUKI chain lube or an
equivalent.

A CAUTION
Some drive chain lubricants con-
tain solvents and additives which
could damage the 0-rings in your
chain.
Use Suzuki chain lube or an equiva-
lent that is specifically intended for
use with 0-ring chains.
DRIVE CHAIN ADJUSTMENT
Adjust the drive chain slack to the
proper specification. The chain may
require more frequent adjustments
than periodic maintenance schedule
depending upon your riding condi-
tions.
A WARNING
Too much chain slack can cause
the chain to come off the sprock-
ets, resulting in an accident or se-
rious damage to the motorcycle.
Inspect and adjust the drive chain
slack before each use.
