CLUTCH ADJUSTMENT

At the 1000 mile (1600 km) service interval, and at every 5000 mile (8000 km) service interval thereafter, adjust the clutch as follows:
CAUTION
Perform the clutch adjustment with the motorcycle at room temperature. The clearance at the adjuster screw will increase as the powertrain temperature increases. If adjuster screw is adjusted while the powertrain is hot, clearance at push rod bearing could be insufficient with powertrain cold and clutch slippage could occur.
NOTE
Perform adjustment procedure whenever clutch components are replaced during normal servicing. Repeat adjustment after 500 miles (800 km) of use.
1. Stand vehicle upright and level.
2. Using a T27 TORX drive head, remove five screws (with captive washers) to free clutch inspection cover from pri­mary chaincase cover.
3. See Figure 1-6. Slide rubber boot off cable adjuster. Holding cable adjuster with 1/2 inch wrench, loosen jam nut using a 9/16 inch wrench. Back jam nut away from cable adjuster. Move adjuster toward jam nut to intro­duce a large amount of free play at hand lever.
4. See Figure 1-8. Loosen locknut on clutch adjuster screw. To take up all free play in push rods, turn screw inward (clockwise) until lightly seated.
8. Swab all lubricant from the quad ring groove. Install quad ring in primary chaincase cover with the nubs con­tacting the ring groove walls.
NOTE If lubricant is not thoroughly removed from both the quad ring and groove, compression of the ring during installation of the clutch inspection cover can cause lubricant to be squeezed to the outboard side of the ring groove, resulting in some temporary weepage around the inspection cover.
9. Using a T27 TORX drive head, install five screws (with
captive washers) to secure clutch inspection cover to the primary chaincase cover. Alternately tighten screws to 84-108
in-lbs
(10-12 Nm) in the pattern shown in Figure

1. Slide rubber boot off throttle cable adjuster. See Figure
1-21. Holding cable adjuster with a 3/8 inch wrench,
loosen jam nut turning in a clockwise direction. Back jam nut away from cable adjuster until it stops. Turn adjuster clockwise until it contacts jam nut. Repeat procedure on idle cable adjuster.
2. Point the front wheel straight ahead. Turn the throttle control grip so that the throttle is wide open (fully coun­terclockwise) and then hold in position. Now turn the throttle cable adjuster counterclockwise until the throttle cam stop just touches the stop plate on the carburetor. See Figure 1-22. Tighten jam nut against the throttle cable adjuster and then release the throttle control grip. Cover cable adjuster mechanism with rubber boot.
response is achieved. Tighten jam nut against the idle cable adjuster and cover cable adjuster mechanism with rubber boot.
4. Verify that the throttle control operates freely without binding. With the tension adjuster screw backed off, the throttle control grip must freely return to the closed (idle) position. The throttle control also must open and close freely when the front wheel is turned to both the right and left fork stops.
If the throttle grip does not return to the idle position freely, check the adjuster screw tension. If the adjuster screw is backed off, inspect the cables for short bends.

SPARK PLUGS

Inspect the spark plugs at every 5000 mile (8,000 km) ser­vice interval. Replace the spark plugs at every 10,000 mile (16,000 km) service interval. Proceed as follows:

Throttle
Stop Screw
The HD-6R12 plug has a resistor element to reduce radio interference originating in the motorcycle ignition system. Only resistor type plugs should be used with the electronic ignition system.
Table 1-5. Spark Plug Data
SIZE 12 mm
GAP 0.038-0.043 in. (0.97-1.09 mm)
TYPE HD-6R12 (No Substitute)
1. Remove plugs and examine immediately. The deposits on the plug base are an indication of the plug efficiency and are a guide to the general condition of rings, valves, carburetor and ignition system.
a. A wet black and shiny deposit on plug base, elec-
trodes and ceramic insulator tip indicate an oil fouled plug. The condition may be caused by worn rings and pistons, loose valves, weak battery or faulty ignition.
b. A dry fluffy or sooty black deposit indicates a too
rich carburetor air/fuel mixture or long periods of engine idling.
c. An overheated plug can be identified by a light
brown, glassy deposit. This condition may be accompanied by cracks in the insulator or by ero­sion of the electrodes. This condition is caused by too lean an air/fuel mixture, a hot running engine, valves not seating or improper ignition timing. The glassy deposit on the spark plug is a conductor when hot and may cause high speed misfiring. A plug with eroded electrodes, heavy deposits or a cracked insulator should be replaced.
d. A plug with a white, yellow or light tan to rusty brown
powdery deposit indicates balanced combustion. The deposits may be cleaned off at regular intervals if desired.
2. Set the spark plug gap using a wire-type gauge. Bend the outside of the electrode so only a slight drag on the gauge is felt when passing it between electrodes. Never make adjustments by bending the center electrode. Set gap on all plugs at 0.038-0.043 in. (0.97-1.09 mm)
3. Before installing spark plugs, check condition of threads in cylinder head and on plug. If necessary soften depos­its with penetrating oil and clean out with a thread chaser.
4. Install spark plug finger tight and then torque to 12-18 ft­lbs (16-24 Nm).

ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS

At the 1000 mile (1600 km) service interval, and at every 5000 mile (8000 km) service interval thereafter, inspect the operation of all electrical components and switches.
Figure 1-23. Idle Speed Adjustment

ENGINE IDLE SPEED

At the 1000 mile (1600 km) service interval, and at every 5000 mile (8000 km) service interval thereafter, inspect the engine idle speed as follows:
NOTES
The C.V. carburetor has an enrichener circuit that will cause the engine to idle at approximately 1500 rpm with the engine at normal operating temperature and the enrichener knob pulled fully out.
The increase in idle speed is intended to alert the rider
that the engine is warmed up to normal operating tem­perature and the enrichener knob should be pushed all the way in.
Continuing to use the enrichener when the engine is at
full operating temperature WILL CAUSE FOULED PLUGS.
TECHNICIAN – Be sure the engine is warmed up to nor­mal operating temperature and the enrichener knob is pushed all the way in BEFORE adjusting engine idle speed. Be aware that because there are variations in individual components, it is possible for a properly warmed up engine to idle at 2000 rpm with the enrichener knob pulled PARTIALLY OUT.
1. See Figure 1-23. With the engine at normal operating temperature and the enrichener all the way in (enrichener valve closed) adjust the throttle stop screw so the engine idles at 950-1050 rpm.
