We would like to congratulate you on your purchase of a Husaberg motorcycle.

You are now the owner of a state-of-the-art sport motorcycle that guarantees to bring you lots
of fun and enjoyment, provided that you clean and maintain it appropriately. Before you go

for your first ride, be sure to read this manual carefully and thoroughly in order to fami­liarize yourself with how to operate your new motorcycle and with its characteristics,
even if this means that you will have to dedicate some of your valuable time to this
task. Only by doing so will you learn how to tune your motorcycle to your specific
needs and how to protect yourself against injury. Besides, this manual contains impor­tant information on motorcycle maintenance. At the time this manual was typeset, it was

up-to-date with the latest state of this production series. Please note that motorcycle features
may vary according to the effective legal provisions. It cannot be completely ruled out, howe­ver, that minor discrepancies may exist resulting from further design upgrades of these
motorcycles.This manual is an important part of your motorcycle and should be passed on to
any subsequent owner in case you decide to sell it.

The work marked with an * in the chapter "Servicing the chassis and engine" must be perfor­med by an authorized Husaberg dealer. If such service work becomes necessary during a
competition, it must be performed by a trained mechanic.

For your own safety, use Husaberg-approved parts and accessories only. Husaberg
is not liable for damage that arises in connection with the use of other products.

Take special care to follow the recommended run in, inspection, and maintenance intervals.
Heeding these guidelines will significantly increase the life of your motorcycle. Be sure to
have your motorcycle serviced by an authorized Husaberg dealer to maintain the validity of
your warranty.

Off-road / Supermoto motorcycle driving is a wonderful sport and we hope that you will be
able to enjoy it to the full. It may, however, involve potential problems for the environment or
lead to conflicts with others. These problems or conflicts can be avoided if the motorcycle is
used responsibly. To safeguard the future of motorcycle sports, make sure that you use the
motorcycle in accordance with the law, show that you are environmentally conscious and res­pect the rights of others.

We wish you a lot of fun when driving !

IMPORTANT LIMITED WARRANTY AND LIMITED GUARANTEE

INFORMATION

Husaberg sports motorcycles are designed and constructed to resist the usual wear and tear
of normal use in competitions.
The motorcycles comply with the regulations and categories currently in effect with the leading
international motorcycle associations.

Observance of the service, maintenance and tuning instructions for the engine and chassis
specified in the Owner's Manual is a prerequisite for faultless operation and the avoidance of
premature wear. An improperly tuned chassis can lead to damage and breakage of the chas­sis components (see chapter on checking the basic chassis setting).

The service work described in the "Lubrication and maintenance chart" must be carried out
and confirmed by an authorized Husaberg dealer, otherwise your warranty will become void.

The fuels and lubricants specified in the Owner's Manual or fluids with equivalent specificati­ons must be used in accordance with the maintenance schedule.

No claims can be filed under the warranty for damage or consequential damage caused by
manipulations or conversions to the motorcycle.

The use of the motorcycle under extreme conditions, e.g. on extremely muddy and wet ter­rain, can lead to higher than average wear on components such as the drive train or the bra­kes. In this case it may become necessary to service or replace wear parts before the service
limit specified in the maintenance schedule has been reached.

MODELS FE

“On the road“ approved models are only allowed on public roads in the original homologated
(throttled) version. Without this performance restriction (i.e. de-throttled), these models
are only allowed to be driven off-road and not on public roads.The FE models are desi­gned for off-road sports endurance competitions(enduro) and not suitable for predominant
motocross use.

MODELS FS

The FS models are only allowed on public roads in the original homologated (throttled) ver­sion. Without this performance restriction (i.e. dethrottled), these models are only allo-

wed to be driven in Supermoto competitions but not on public roads.

No warranty will be assumed if the bike is used in races or competitions.

In accordance with the international quality management ISO 9001 stan­dard, Husaberg uses quality assurance processes that lead to the hig­hest possible product quality.

ENGLISH

CLUTCH LEVER

The clutch lever (1) is located on the left side of the handlebar. The adjust­ing screw (A) is used to change the original position of the clutch lever
(see maintenance work on chassis and engine).

HAND DECOMPRESSION LEVER

The hand decompression lever (2) is needed only if the carburetor over­flows after a fall. To "pump the engine free", pull the hand decompression
lever during the starting procedure.
The outer end of the lever must provide for a backlash of approx. 10 mm
(0.4 in) at all times. Only thereafter may it cause valve motion (to be recog­nized by the stronger resistance which the hand decompression lever
encounters).

HAND BRAKE LEVER

The hand brake lever (3) is located on the right side of the handlebar and
actuates the front brake. The basic setting of the hand brake lever can
be adjusted (see maintenance work).

DAMPING ACTION DURING COMPRESSION OF
SHOCK ABSORBER

The shock absorber can synchronize the compression
damping in the low and high-speed range separately (Dual Compression
Control).
Low and high speed refers to the movement of the shock absorber during
compression and not to the speed of the motorcycle.
The low and high-speed technology overlaps.
The low-speed setting is primarily for slow to normal shock absorber
compression rates.
The high-speed setting is effective at fast compression rates.
Turning in a clockwise direction will increase the damping, turning
counterclockwise will decrease the damping.

STANDARD LOW-SPEED SETTING:
– turn the adjusting screw (1) to the limit in a clockwise direction using

a screwdriver .

– unscrew the respective number of clicks for the specific type of shock

absorber in a counterclockwise direction.

Typ WP Suspension 12457B02 ..........22 clicks

TIPS AND WARNINGS FOR STARTING THE MOTORCYCLE

- 19 -

ENGLISH

INSTRUCTIONS FOR INITIAL OPERATION

– Verify that your Husaberg dealer performed the PREPARATION

OF VEHICLE jobs (see Customer Service Manual).
– Read these operating instructions carefully before your first ride.
– Familiarize yourself with the operating elements.
– Set the clutch lever, the handbrake lever, and the footbrake

pedal to the positions that are most convenient for you.
– Get used to handling the motorcycle on an empty parking lot

or open space, before starting on a longer drive. Also try to

drive as slowly as possible and in a standing position, to

improve your feeling for the vehicle.
– Do not drive along off-road tracks which go beyond your abitily

and experience.
– Hold the handlebars with both hands and leave your feet on

the foot rests while driving.
– Remove your foot from the foot brake lever when you are not

braking. If the foot brake lever is not released the brake pads

rub continuously and the braking system is over-heated.
– Do not make any alterations to the motorcycle and always use

ORIGINAL Husaberg SPARE PARTS. Spare parts from other

manufacturers can impair the safety of the motorcycle.
– Motorcycles are sensitive to alterations in the distribution of

weight. If you are taking luggage with you, this should be secu-

red as close as possible to the middle of the vehicle; distribute

the weight evenly between the front and rear wheel. Never

exceed the maximum permissible laden weight and the axle

weights. The maximum permissible laden weight is comprised

of the following components:

– Motorcycle ready for operation and tank full

– Luggage

– Driver with protective clothing and helmet.
– Pay attention to the running-in procedure.

RUNNING IN THE HUSABERG MODELS

Even very precisely machined sections of engine components
have rougher surfaces than components which have been sliding
across one another for quite some time. Therefore, every engine
needs to be broken in.
For this reason, do not load the engine more than 50% of its capa­city during the first 3 operating hours. Besides, the engine speed
must not exceed 7000 rpm. Avoid going full-throttle!
In the following 12 operating hours, you may load the engine up
to 75% of its capacity. Use the motorcycle on various types of ter­rain (road, easy off-road trails).

CAUTION: The Husaberg models were uncompromi-

singly designed for off-road competition purposes
only. “On the road“ approved models FE/FS are only
allowed on public roads in the original homologated
(throttled) version. Avoid extended on-road rides at full
throttle.

WARNING: Wear suitable clothing when driving a

motorcycle. Clever Husaberg drivers always wear a hel­met, boots, gloves and a jacket, regardless of whether
driving all day or just for a short trip. The protective
clothing should be brightly colored so that other
vehicles can see you as early as possible.

Always turn on the light to make sure that other dri­vers become aware of you as early as possible.

Do not drive after having consumed alcohol.
Only use accessories recommended by Husaberg. For

example, front panelling can impair the driving pro­perties of the motorcycle. Cases, extra tanks, etc. can
alter the weight distribution and thus also impair the
vehicles driving properties.

The front and rear wheel may only be fitted with tires
that have the same profile type.

The Husaberg models are designed and dimensioned
for 1 person only. Never take another rider along.

Observe the traffic regulations, drive defensively and
try to look ahead as far as possible so that any hazards
can be recognized as early as possible.

Adjust your driving speed according to the conditions
and your driving skills.

Drive carefully on unknown roads or on unfamiliar
trials.

When driving off-road, always have a friend on a second
motorcycle to keep you company, so that you can help
each other should difficulties arise.

Replace the helmet visor or goggle lens when scrat­ched or damaged. if bright light shines through a scrat­ched visor or lens, the operator will be blinded.

Never leave your motorcycle without supervision if the
engine is running.

When riding your motorcycle, please bear in mind that
other people may feel molested by excessive noise.

DRIVING INSTRUCTIONS

ENGLISH

CHECK THE FOLLOWING BEFORE EACH START

When you start off, the motorcycle must be in perfect technical
condition. For safety reasons, you should make a habit of performing an
overall check of your motorcycle before each start.
The following checks should be performed:

1 CHECK THE OIL LEVEL

Insufficient oil results in premature wear and consequently to engine
damage. Too much engine oil will lead to higher oil consumption and
will clog the carburetor.

2 FUEL

Check that there is sufficient fuel in the tank; when closing the
filler cap, check that the tank venting hose is free of kinks.

3 CHAIN

A loose chain can fall from the chain wheels; an extremely worn chain
can tear, and insufficient lubrication can result in unnecessary wear
to the chain and chain wheels. Excessive tensioning of the chain will
put additional load on the components of the secondary drivetrain (chain,
bearings of transmission and rear wheel). Aside from resulting in pre­mature wear, if worst comes to worst the chain may rupture or the coun­tershaft of the transmission may break.

4 TIRES

Check for damaged tires. Tires showing cuts or dents must be repla­ced. The tread depth must comply with the legal regulations. Also check
the air pressure. Insufficient tread and incorrect air pressure deterio­rate the driving performance.

5 BRAKES

Check correct functioning of the braking system. Check for
sufficient brake fluid in the reservoir. The reservoirs have been desi­gned in such a way that brake fluid does not need to be refilled even
when the brake pads are worn. If the level of brake fluid falls below
the minimum value, this indicates a leak in the braking system or com­pletely worn out brake pads. Arrange for the braking system to be che­cked by a Husaberg specialist, as complete failure of the braking sys­tem can be avoided.
Also check the state of the brake hose and the thickness of the brake
linings.
Check free travel at the hand brake lever and foot brake lever.

6 CABLES

Check correct setting and easy running of all control cables.

7 COOLING FLUID

Check the level of the cooling fluid when the engine is cold.

8 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Check correct functioning of headlamps, tail-lights, brake lights,
indicators, control lamps and horn while the engine is running.

9 LUGGAGE

If you are taking luggage with you, check that this is securely faste­ned.

10 REAR MIRROR

Checking the rear mirror setting.

ENGLISH

STARTING WHEN THE ENGINE IS COLD

1 Open the fuel taps (1).
2 Swing up the side stand or center stand.
3 Put the gear in neutral.
4 Operate the choke (2).
5 Leave throttle closed and kick the kickstarter briskly ALL THE WAY or

actuate the E-starter.

WARNING: If you want to start the engine, make sure that you

always put on sturdy motorcycle boots in order to avoid inju­ries. You might slip off the kickstarter, or the engine may kick
back and propel your foot upward with great force.

Always kick the kickstarter briskly all the way without ope­ning the throttle. If you do not Kick hard enought, with an open
throttle grip, the kick-back hazard will be higher.

Do not start the engine and allow it to idle in a closed area.
Exhaust fumes are poisonous and can cause loss of cons­ciousness and death. Always provide adequate ventilation
while the engine is running.

Always verify that the transmission has been set to idle (neu­tral) before actuating the starter button. If you start the
motorcycle with a gear engaged, the motorcycle will move
forward.

CAUTION: Be sure to kick up the side stand before you start

the engine to avoid any damage.
Maximal period for continuous starting: 5 seconds. Wait at

least 5 seconds before trying again.
Don’t ride your motorcycle with full load and don’t rev up the

engine when cold because the piston is warming up faster
than the water cooled cylinder and can cause engine damage.

NOTE: If it is difficult to start the engine, this could be due

to old fuel in the float chamber. The highly inflammable con­stituents in the new fuel volatilize if left standing over longer
periods of time. If the motorcycle was not used for over 1 week,
drain the old fuel from the float chamber. The engine will start
immediately after the float chamber is filled with fresh igni­table fuel.

STARTING WHEN THE ENGINE IS WARM

1 Open the fuel tap (1).
2 Swing up the side stand.
3 Put the gear in neutral.
4 Leave throttle closed and kick the kickstarter briskly ALL THE WAY or

actuate the E-starter.

NOTE: Pull the hot start knob if the engine won't start.

WHAT TO DO WHEN THE ENGINE IS “FLOODED”

In the event of a fall, more fuel than necessary may get into the engine.
In order to "pump the engine free", pull the hand decompression lever,
fully rev up the engine, actuate the kickstarter 5 to 10 times or actuate
the E-starter 2 times for 5 seconds each. Then, start the engine as des­cribed above.
If the engine fails to start, unscrew the spark plug and dry it.

NOTE: The carburetor has an accelerator pump. Every time

you open the throttle, fuel will be injected into the intake pas­sage. When starting, be sure that you open the throttle com­pletely only once.

BRAKING

Close the throttle and apply the hand and foot brake simultane­ously. Be especially careful when applying the brakes on sandy,
wet or slippery surfaces. Always brake with feeling, locked wheels
will cause the motorcycle to skid or crash. Always shift down the
gears in accordance with the speed. Always finish braking before
you enter a curve.

When driving down hill, use the braking effect of the engine.
Change down one or two gears but do not overspeed the engine.
In this way, you will not need to brake so much and the brakes will
not overheat.

WARNING: In case of rain, after washing the motorcy-

cle, after rides through water and in case of rides on
wet off-road tracks, humid or dirty brake discs can delay
the braking effect. The brakes must be pulled until
they are dry or clean.

Rides on salt-strewed or dirty roads can also delay the
braking effect. The brakes must be pulled until they
are clean.

Dirty brake discs cause increased tear of brake pads
and brake discs.

When you brake, the brake discs, brake pads, brake
caliper and brake fluid heat up. The hotter these parts
get, the weaker the breaking effect. In extreme cases,
the entire braking system can fail.

If the resistance in the hand brake lever or foot brake
pedal feels “spongy” (too much play), this is an indi­cation that something is wrong with the brake system.
Don’t ride your motorcycle anymore without first having
the brake system looked over by a Husaberg dealer.

STARTING OFF

Pull the clutch lever, engage 1st gear, slowly release the clutch
lever while you open the throttle.

WARNING: Always make sure the side stand is folded

all the way up before driving off. The motorcycle can
go out of control if the side stand touches the ground.

SHIFTING/RIDING

You are now in first gear, refered to as the drive or uphill gear. Depen­ding on the conditions (traffic, hill size, etc.), you can shift to a hig­her gear. Close throttle, at the same time pull clutch lever in and
shift to the next higher gear. Let clutch lever go again and acce­lerate. If you turned on the choke, make sure you turn it off again
as soon as engine is warm.
When you reach full speed through opening the throttle all the way,
turn throttle back to 3/4; the speed hardly decreases although the
engine will use less gas. Only give as much gas as the engine
can handle. Through quick and high revving of the throttle, the fuel
usage increases.
By shifting down, use the brakes if necessary and close the throttle
at the same time. Pull the clutch lever and shift down to the next
gear. Let clutch lever go slowly and open the throttle or shift down
again

NOTE: Dedicated to nothing but offroad racing, Hus-

aberg models make no compromises in their design.
As such, they do not include any radiator fan, and the
size of the radiator is dimensioned for optimum ergo­nomics. In normal racing, the cooling system is suffi­cient. If you use your motorbike in other conditions,
please note that: the E-starter allows you to start FS
models again at any time. Therefore, turn off the engine
if you intend to run your motorcycle in idle or at a stand­still for longer periods of time (more than 2 minutes).
Avoid letting the clutch slip frequently and for exten­ded periods. This would cause the engine oil to heat
up, thereby heating up the cooling system. You should
drive at low speeds (4-stroke style - letting the engine
pull you) and not at high speeds not by letting the clutch
slip (2-stroke style).

WARNING: After falling with the motorcycle, check all

functions thoroughly before starting up operations
again.

A twisted handlebar must always be replaced. Do not
adjust the handlebar, it will lose stability.

CAUTION: High rpm rates when the engine is cold
have an adverse effect on the life of your engine. We
recommend you run the engine in a moderate rpm
range for a few miles giving it a chance to warm up.
After that no further precautions in this respect need
to be taken. The engine has reached its operating tem­perature as soon as the radiators become warm.

Never have the throttle wide open when changing
down to a lower gear. The engine will over-rev, dama­ging the valves. In addition, the rear wheel locks so
that the motorcycle can easily get out of control.

If any abnormal vibrations occur while driving, check
that the engine fastening bolts are tight.

In the event that, while riding on your motorcycle, you
notice any unusual operation-related noise, stop imme­diately, turn the engine off, and contact an authorized
Husaberg dealer.

ENGLISH

STOPPING AND PARKING

Decelerate and switch the engine into neutral. To switch off the engine at
idling speed, press the short-circuit switch or the emergency off switch
until the engine is off. Close the fuel taps, park the motorcycle on a firm
surface and lock.

WARNING: Motorcycle engines produce a great amount of heat

while running. The engine, exhaust pipe, muffler, brake rotors,
and shock absorbers can become very hot. Do not touch any
of these parts after operating the motorcycle, and take care
to park it where pedestrians are not likely to touch it and get
burned.

CAUTION: Do not use the hand decompressor lever to switch

off the engine. Always use the short-circuit switch, the emer­gency off switch.

Close the fuel tap when leaving your vehicle.Otherwise the
carburettor can flood and fuel will enter the engine.

Never park your motorcycle in places where there are fire
hazards due to dry grass or other easily flammable
materials.

NOTE REGARDING THE SIDE STAND: Use your foot to kick

side stand forward up to the stop and lean the motorcycle
sideways. Make sure that the ground is solid and that your
motorcycle is standing securely. Just in case, you can shift
into first gear.For off-road riding, you can use the rubber
band to additionally secure the center stand in its folded-up
position

CAUTION: The side stand is designed to bear only the load

of the motorcycle. The side stand and/or the frame can be
damaged and the motorcycle can fall over if you mount the
motor-cycle, thus putting an additional load on the side stand.

FUEL

The engine needs unleaded fuel with at least RON 95 (USA = Premium
RON 91).

CAUTION: Use leaded or unleaded premium grade gasoline

(95 octanes). Never use gasoline having less than 95 octa­nes because it may damage the engine.

WARNING: Gasoline is highly flammable and poisonous.

Extreme caution should be used when handling gasoline. Do
not refuel the motorcycle near open flames or burning ciga­rettes. Always switch off the engine before refuelling. Be
careful not to spill gasoline on the engine or exhaust pipe while
the engine is hot. Wipe up spills promptly. If gasoline is swal­lowed or splashed in the eyes, seek a doctor’s advice imme­diately.

Fuel expands when its temperature rises. Therefore do not fill the tank to
the top (see fig.).

CHECKING AND ADJUSTING THE STEERING HEAD
BEARING *

The steering head bearing should be checked regularly for play. For this
purpose, jack up the motorcycle by the frame so that the front wheel is in
the air. Now try to move the fork forward and backward. There should be
no clearance. For readjustment, release the 4 clamp screws (1) of the
top triple clamp and the steering head nut (2). Turn the adjusting nut (3)
until almost no play is left. Do not tighten the adjusting nut! Tightening the
adjusting nut can damage the bearings! Keep in mind that tightening the
steering head nut (2) reduces the play of the bearing. Slightly tap the top
triple clamp with a rubber hammer to prevent jamming. Then tighten the
4 clamp screws with 20 Nm(FE)/ 17 Nm(FS).

WARNING: If the steering head bearing is not adjusted to be

free of play, the motorcycle will exhibit unsteady
driving characteristics and can get out of control.

CAUTION: If you drive with play in the steering head

bearing for longer periods, the bearings and subsequently
the bearing seats in the frame will be destroyed.

The steering head bearings should be regreased at least once a year (e.g.
Motorex Long Term 2000).

WARNING: MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTING WORK MARKED WITH AN ASTERISK (*) REQUIRES EXPERT SKILLS

AND TECHNICAL KNOW-HOW. FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, ALWAYS HAVE SUCH WORK PERFORMED BY A SPECIA­LIZED HUSABERG DEALER WHERE YOUR MOTORCYCLE WILL BE OPTIMALLY SERVICED BYAPPROPRIATELY QUA­LIFIED, SKILLED STAFF.

CAUTION: When cleaning the motorcycle, do not use a high pressure cleaning unit if possible, otherwise water will

penetrate the bearings, carburetor, electric connectors, etc.
When transporting your Husaberg, ensure that it is held upright with restraining straps or other mechanical fastening

devices and that the fuel tap is in the OFF position - if the motorcycle should fall over, no fuel can leak from the car­buretor or fuel tank

Do not use toothed washers or spring rings with the engine fastening screws, as these work into the frame parts and
keep working loose. Instead, use self-locking nuts.

Let your motorcycle cool down before beginning any maintenance work in order to avoid getting burned.
Dispose oils, fatty matters, filters, fuels, washing detergents etc. properly.
Under no circumstances may used oil be disposed of in the sewage system or in the open countryside.

1 liter of used oil contaminates 1,000,000 liters of water.

BREATHER PLUG FRONT FORK

After every 5 hours of use for competitive racing, slacken the breather
plugs (1) a few turns in order to relieve excess pressure from the inside
of the fork. To do this, place the motorcycle on a stand with the front wheel
lifted off the ground. When riding the motorcycle mainly on the road, it will
suffice to have this job performed in the course of the periodical mainte­nance service.

CAUTION: Excessive pressure in the interior of the fork can

cause leaks in the fork. If your fork is leaking, it is recommended
to open the breather plugs before having the seals replaced.

CLEANING THE DUST SLEEVES OF THE TELESCO­PIC FORK

The dust-protection bellows (2) are to remove dust and coarse dirt parti­cles from the fork tube. However, after some time, dirt may also get in
behind the dust-protection bellows. If this dirt is not removed, the oil sea­ling rings located behind it may start to leak.
Use a screwdriver to lift the dust-protection bellows out of the outer tubes
and slide them downward.

Pry the dust boots out of the outer pipes with a screwdriver and slide down.
Clean dust boots, outer pipes and fork tubes thoroughly. Oil generously
with Universal oil spray (Motorex Joker 440) or engine oil. Press the dust
boots into the outer pipes by hand.

WARNING: No oil may reach the front tire or the brake disk

since this would considerably reduce the tire's road grip and
the braking effect of the front brake.

BASIC SUSPENSION SETUP FOR THE WEIGHT OF
THE DRIVER

To achieve maximum handling performance and to prevent the fork, shock
absorber, swing arm and frame from being damaged, the basic setup of
the suspension components must be suitable for your weight. At delivery,
Husaberg's offroad motorcycles are set to accommodate a driver weig­hing 70 - 80 kg (wearing full protective clothing). If your weight exceeds
or falls short of this range, you will need to adjust the basic setup for the
suspension components accordingly. Minor deviations in weight can be
compensated by adjusting the spring preload. Different springs must be
installed for larger deviations.

CHECKING THE SHOCK ABSORBER AND SPRING

You can establish whether or not the shock absorber spring is
suitable for your weight by checking the riding sag. The static slag must
be correctly adjusted before the riding sag can be determined.

DETERMINING THE STATIC SAG OF THE SHOCK
ABSORBER

The static sag should be as close as possible to 35 mm. Deviations of
more than 2 mm can strongly influence the motorcycle's performance.
Procedure:
– Jack up the motorcycle until the rear wheel no longer touches the ground.
– Measure the vertical distance between the rear wheel axle and a

fixed point (e.g. a mark on the side cover) and write it down as

dimension A.
– Place the motorcycle on the ground again.
– Ask a helper to hold the motorcycle in vertical position.
– Measure the distance between the rear axle and the fixed point again

to establish dimension B.
– The static sag is the difference between dimensions A and B.

EXAMPLE:

Motorcycle jacked up (dimension A) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .600 mm

Motorcycle on ground, unloaded (dimension B)

. . . . . . . . . . .– 565 mm

Static sag . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .35 mm

If the static sag is lower, the spring preload of the shock absorber must
be reduced, if the static sag is higher, the spring preload must be incre­ased. See chapter "Changing the spring preload of the shock absorber."

DETERMINING THE RIDING SAG OF THE SHOCK
ABSORBER

– Have a helper hold the motorcycle while you sit on the bike in a

normal seating position (feet on the footrests) wearing full protective

clothing and bounce up and down a few times to allow the rear wheel

suspension to become level.
– Stay on the bike and have another person measure the distance bet-

ween the same two points and write it down as dimension C.
– The riding sag is the difference between dimensions A and C.

EXAMPLE:

Motorcycle jacked up (dimension A) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .600 mm

Motorcycle on ground, loaded (dimension C)

. . . . . . . . . . . . .– 510 mm

The riding sag should lie between 90 and 105 mm.
If the riding sag is less than 90 mm, the spring is too hard (the spring rate
is too high). If the riding sag is more than 105 mm, the spring is too soft
(the spring rate is too low).
The spring rate is written on the outside of the spring (e.g. 88/250). The
type number of the shock absorber is embossed on the bottom of the tank.
The illustrations show which spring should be installed. The standard spring
is shown in bold print. After installing a different spring, readjust the sta­tic sag to 35 mm (± 2 mm).According to our experience, the damping rate
of the compression stage can remain unchanged. The damping rate of
the rebound stage can be reduced by a few clicks for a softer spring or
increased by a few clicks for a harder spring.

CHECKING THE BASIC SETUP OF THE TELESCOPIC
FORK

The precise riding sag of the telescopic fork cannot be determined for
various reasons. Similar to the shock absorber, smaller deviations in your
weight can be compensated by adjusting the spring preload. However, if
your telescopic fork bumps frequently (hard end stop during compression),
you should install harder fork springs to avoid damaging the telescopic
fork and frame.

CHANGING THE SPRING PRELOAD ON THE TELES­COPIC FORK

The telescopic forks for these models must be partly disassembled to adjust
the spring preload (see WP manual). Pretension spacers are available in
heights of 1.5, 2.5 and 5 mm (see spare parts catalog). The fork springs
may not be pretensioned by more than 20 mm.

NOTE: WP precisely adjusts the spring pressure by

inserting pretension spacers. Fluctuations in production are
compensated with pretension spacers in various heights.
This can cause the fork springs in the fork legs to have
different degrees of pretension. Fork springs and pretension
spacers should always stay together.

REPLACING FORK SPRINGS

If you weigh less than 70 kg or more than 80 kg, you should install the
respective fork springs. The correct spring rate is shown in the illustra­tions. The standard spring is shown in bold print. The type number of the
telescopic fork is embossed on the caps on the top of the telescopic fork.
If you are uncertain which spring to use, contact your Husaberg
workshop.

According to our experience, the damping rate of the compression stage
can remain unchanged. The damping rate of the rebound stage can be
reduced by a few clicks for a softer spring or increased by a few clicks for
a harder spring.

CHANGING THE FORK OFFSET (CASTER) (FS) *

The fork offset (A) in the FS models (center fork legs - center steering
head angle) can be set to either 16 or 18 mm. This allows you to optimize
the handling to match the race course.

You can see which offset is preset when you remove the end screw (1).
If the flat area (B) is in the rear, the offset is 16 mm. This setting will improve
driving stability on fast race courses.

If the flat area (B) is in the front, the offset is 18 mm. This setting will improve
the handling in curves.

The offset is set to 16 mm in the condition at delivery.

To adjust the offset, dismount the front wheel and remove the front wheel
fender.
Remove the headlight mask and disconnect the plug connector from the
brake light switch and speedometer sensor.
Remove the clamp screws on the hand brake cylinder and fasten the hand
brake cylinder to the left fork leg with a cable tie to keep the brake line
from kinking (see illustration).

Loosen the clamp screws and take the fork legs out of the triple clamps.
Loosen the collar screw (2) on the lower triple clamp 2 turns.
Remove the end screw (1) from the upper triple clamp and rest the upper
triple clamp on the tank. Remove the adjusting nut (3) and protection
ring (4).
Tap gently on the lower triple clamp with a rubber hammer to loosen the
steering stem (5) out of the bearing seat. Take the lower triple clamp with
the steering stem out of the steering head.

WARNING:A plastic insert in the collar screw thread makes

the collar screw self-locking. Replace if the collar screw can
be screwed in by hand.

Do not confuse the collar screw with the blind screw. The collar
screw is self-locking.

Grease the steering head bearing and sealing elements.

Mount the lower triple clamp, protection ring, adjusting nut, upper triple
clamp and the end screw.
Tighten the collar screw on the lower triple clamp to 80 Nm.

HOW TO CHANGE THE HANDLEBAR POSITION

The handlebar position can be readjusted by 22 mm. Thus, you can put
the handlebar in the position that is the most convenient for you. The upper
triple clamp (1) includes 2 bores arranged at a distance of 15 mm (0.6 in)
from one another. The bores at the handlebar support (2) are offset from
the center by 3.5 mm (0.13 in). Accordingly, you can mount the handle­bar in 4 different positions.

For this purpose, remove screws (3) of the handlebar clamps and screws
(4) of the handlebar support. Position the handlebar support, and tighten
screws (4) to 40 Nm. Mount handlebar and handlebar clamps, and tigh­ten screws (3) to 20 Nm. The gap between the handlebar support and
the handlebar clamps should be the same in the front and in the rear.

WARNING: The screws (4) must be secured with Loctite 243.

CHANGING THE SPRING PRELOADING OF THE
SHOCK ABSORBER

The spring preload can be changed by turning the adjusting ring (5). For
this purpose, you should dismount the shock absorber and clean it
thoroughly.

NOTE:
– Before changing the spring preload note down the basic setting, e.g.

how many threads are visible above the adjusting ring.
– One rotation of the adjusting ring (5) changes the spring pretension

by approximately 1.75 mm (0.07 in).

Loosen the clamping screw (6) and use the hook wrench contained in the
vehicle tool set to turn the adjusting ring as desired. Turning it counter­clockwise will reduce the preload, turning it clockwise will increasethe
preload.
After readjusting the clamping screw (6), tighten it to 8 Nm.

CHECK CHAIN TENSION

Jack the motorcycle up on its frame so that the rear wheel no longer tou­ches the ground.
Press the chain upward at the end of the chain sliding component. The
distance between the chain and the swing arm should be approx. 8 - 10
mm (0.31 - 0.39 in). In the course of this procedure, the upper chain
portion (A) must be taut (see drawing). If necessary, correct the chain
tension.

WARNING: Excessive tensioning of the chain will put addi-

tional load on the components of the secondary drivetrain
(chain, bearings of transmission and rear wheel). Aside from
resulting premature wear, if worst comes to worst the chain
may rupture or the countershaft of the transmission may
break.

Too much slack in the chain, on the other hand, can result in
the chain jumping off the chain wheels. If this happens, the
chain could also block the rear wheel or damage the engine.

In either case the operator is likely to lose control of the
motorcycle.

CORRECT CHAIN TENSION

Loosen collar nut (1), loosen lock nuts (2), and turn right and left adjus­ting screws (3) equally far. Tighten lock nuts.
To ensure the correct alignment of the rear wheel, the marks at the left
and right chain adjusters must be positioned identically in relation to the
reference marks (B). Tighten the counter nut of the adjusting screws.
Before tightening thr collar nut, verify that the chain adjusters (4) are sit­ting close to the adjusting screws and that the rear wheel has been alig­ned with the front wheel.
Tighten collar nut (1) to 80 Nm.

WARNING: If you don’t happen to have a torque wrench at

hand, make sure you have the tightening torque
corrected by a Husaberg dealer as soon as possible. A loose
axle may lead to an unstable driving behavior of your
motorcycle.

Tighten the collar nut with the required torque. A loose
wheel spindle may lead to an unstable behavior of your
motorcycle.

NOTE: The large adjusting range of the chain adjusters (32mm)

allows you to use different secondary ratios in combination
with the same chain length. The chain adjusters (4) can be
rotated by 180°.

CHAIN MAINTENANCE

For a long chain life, good maintenance is very important. Chains without
X-rings should be cleaned in fireproof solvent regularly and afterwards
treated with hot grease or chain spray (e.g. Motorex Chainlube 622).
X-ring chains on the other hand are very simple to clean. The best way
is to use lots of water, but never use brushes or cleaning liquids. After let­ting the chain dry, you can use a special X-ring chain spray (e.g. Moto­rex Chainlube 622).

WARNING: No lubrication is allowed to reach the rear tire or

the brake disks, otherwise the road adherence and the rear
wheel braking effects would be strongly reduced and the
motorcycle could easily lose control.

CAUTION: mounting the chain masterlink clip, the closed

side of the masterlink clip must point in running direction.

Also check sprockets and chain guides for wear and replace if necessary.

CHAIN WEAR

To check the chain wear, observe the following indications:
Shift the gear into idling and pull the upper chain strand with approx. 10­15 Kilograms (33 lb) upwards (see figure). Now one can measure a space
of 18 chain reels at the lower chain strand. The chain should be replaced
at the latest when a space of 272 mm (10.70 in) is measured. Chains do
not always wear off evenly, therefore repeat the measurement at diffe­rent places on the chain.

NOTE: If you mount a new chain, the sprockets should also

be replaced. New chains wear faster if used on old used
sprockets.

CAUTION: Secure the screws of the chain wheel by

applying Loctite and fasten them in a crosswise order. Tigh­tening torque for nuts: 35 Nm. Tightening torque for screws:
50 Nm.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT HUSABERG DISC
BRAKES

BRAKE CALIPERS:
Tighten the screws on the brake caliper support or the brake caliper to
25 Nm + Loctite 243(FE) or to 40 Nm(FS).

BRAKE PADS:
The brake pads are fitted with TOSHIBATT 2701(FE), BERINGER 1100S
(FS) sintered lining at the front and ID450 sintered lining at the back. These
linings provide an optimal combination of dosing, brake performance and
life cycle. The lining type is stated on the back of the brake pad and also
recorded in the homologation papers.
Other brake pads are available for competition sports.

BRAKE DISCS:
Wear will reduce the thickness of the brake disk around the
mounting face (1) of the brake pads.

WARNING: Brake disks with less than the minimum thickn-

ess are a safety risk. Have the brake disk replaced as soon
as it reaches the wear limit.

Always have repairs to the brake system performed by an aut­horized Husaberg shop.

WEAR LIMIT (A) BRAKE DISKS:

front FE . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2.5 mm

front FS . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .5 mm

rear FE/FS . . . . . . . . . . . . .3.5 mm

BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIRS:
The brake fluid reservoirs on the front and rear wheel brakes have been
designed in such a way that even if the brake pads are worn it is not
necessary to top up the brake fluid. If the brake fluid level drops below
the minimum level either the brake system has a leak or the brake pads
are completely worn.In this case, consult an authorized Husaberg dea­ler immediately.

BRAKE FLUID:
Husaberg fills the brake systems with Motorex Brake Fluid DOT 5.1 brake
fluid, one of the best brake currently available. We recommend that you
continue to use it. DOT 5.1 brake fluid is based on glycol ether and of an
amber color. If you do not have any DOT 5.1 for refilling, you may use
DOT 4 brake fluid. However, you should replace it as soon as possible
with DOT 5.1.
Never use brake fluid DOT 5. The color of this silicon oil-based
product is purple red. The gaskets and brake hoses of Husaberg motor­cycles are not designed for DOT 5 brake fluid.

WARNING: Have the brake fluid changed at least once annually.

If you wash your motorcycle often, the brake fluid should be
changed even more frequently. Brake fluid tends to absorb
water. Therefore, vapor pockets may form in "old" brake fluids
even at low temperatures, causing the brake system to fail.

CHANGING THE BASIC POSITION THE HAND BRAKE
LEVER (FE)

Free travel at the hand brake lever may be readjusted by using adjust­ment screw (1). In this way, the position of the point of pressure (e.g. the
resistance you feel on the hand brake lever when the brake pads are pres­sed against the brake disc) can be adjusted for any hand size.When you
press the hand brake lever forwards, you should have at least 3 mm free
travel. Turn the adjusting screw (1) if necessary.

CAUTION: At the hand brake lever, free travel must at least

be 3 mm (0.1 in). Only then may the piston in the hand brake
cylinder be moved (to be recognized by the greater resistance
of the hand brake lever). If this free travel is not provided, pres­sure will build up in the braking system, and the front-wheel
brake may fail due to overheating.

CHANGING THE BASIC POSITION THE HAND BRAKE
LEVER (FS)

The adjusting screw (2) allows you to change the basic position of the
handbrake lever (3).
Press the handbrake lever's outer end forward, and, at the same time,
turn the adjusting screw.

CHECKING THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL - FRONT
BRAKE

The brake fluid reservoir is linked with the hand brake cylinder at the handle­bar and the reservoir is provided with an inspection glass. With the reser­voir in a horizontal position, the brake fluid level should not drop below
the middle of the glass.

WARNING: If the brake fluid level drops below the minimum

either the brake system has a leak or the brake pads are com­pletely worn. In this case, consult an authorized Husaberg
dealer immediately.

REFILLING THE FRONT BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR *

Loosen screws (4) and remove lid (5) and membrane (6).
Place hand brake cylinder in a horizontal position and fill the brake fluid
reservoir to 5 mm (0.2 in) below the rim with clean brake fluid DOT 5.1
(e.g. Motorex Brake Fluid DOT 5.1). Replace membrane and lid, tighten
screws. Rinse off spilled or overflowing brake fluid with water.

WARNING: Never use DOT5 brake fluid! It is based on silicone

oil and of a purple color. Seals and brake hoses must be
especially adapted to it.

Store brake fluid out of reach of children.

WARNING: Brake fluid can cause skin irritation. Avoid contact

with skin and eyes. If you get brake fluid in your eyes, rinse
with plenty of water and consult a doctor

CAUTION: Don’t let brake fluid get in contact with paint, it is

an effective paint remover.
Use only clean brake fluid taken from a tightly sealed

container.

CHECKING THE FRONT BRAKE PADS

The brake pads can be seen from the bottom (FS from the rear). The lining
thickness should not be less than 1 mm.

WARNING:At their most worn point brake pad linings should

not be thinner than 1 mm, otherwise they could lead to brake
failure. For your own safety don’t put off having your brake
pads changed.

CAUTION: If the brake pads are replaced too late so that the

lining is partly or entirely worn, the steel components of the
brake pad will rub against the brake disc, thereby imparing
the braking effect and destroying the brake disc.

REPLACING THE FRONT BRAKE PADS (FE) *

Press the brake caliper toward the brake disk, to put the brake piston in
its basic position. Remove clips (1) and pull out bolt (2). Remove brake
pads from the brake caliper. Clean the brake caliper and the brake cali­per support with compressed air. Check the sleeves of the guide bolts for
damage, and grease guide bolts if necessary.
Mount the right brake pad and fix it with the bolt. Mount the left brake pad
and insert the bolt until it stops. Mount the clips.
When mounting the brake pads, be sure to check for correct fit of the sli­ding metal-sheet in the caliper support and of the leaf spring.

WARNING: It is very important to keep the brake disk free from

oil and fatty matters. Otherwise, the braking effect would be
strongly reduced.

After assembly, check if circlips have been fitted correctly.
After working on the braking system, always actuate the hand

brake lever or foot brake lever, respectively to ensure that the
brake pads will lie against the brake disk and the pressure
point is established.

REPLACING THE FRONT BRAKE PADS (FS) *

Remove the screw (3). Carefully press against the brake pads with a screw­driver to move the brake pistons in their basic position. Remove the brake
pads from the brake caliper and clean the brake caliper thoroughly with
compressed air. Mount the brake pads, mount the screw (3) and hold in
place with the securing clip.

WARNING: It is very important to keep the brake disk free from

oil and fatty matters. Otherwise, the braking effect would be
strongly reduced.

After working on the braking system, always actuate the hand

CHANGING THE BASIC POSITION OF THE FOOT
BRAKE PEDAL *

The basic position of the foot brake pedal can be altered by turning the
stop screw (1). The free play at the foot brake pedal must then be adjus­ted by means of the piston rod (2).
Measured on the outside, the foot brake pedal must have 3-5 mm (0.12–

0.20 in) of free play before the piston rod can move the piston in the brake
cylinder (to be recognised from the resistance on the foot brake pedal).

CAUTION: If this free play is not present, then pressure can

build up in the brake system when driving, causing the rear
wheel to brake.The braking system overheats and may even
fail completely in extreme cases.

The reservoir for the rear disc brake is located above the main brake cylin­der. The level of brake fluid may not fall below the „MIN” mark when the
vehicle has been left standing upright.

WARNING: If the brake fluid level drops below the minimum

either the brake system has a leak or the brake pads are com­pletely worn. In this case, consult an authorized Husaberg
dealer immediately.

REFILLING THE REAR BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR *

When the brake fluid level has dropped to the MIN mark, you need to refill
the brake fluid reservoir.
For easier access to the brake fluid reservoir it is recommended to remove
the hexagon screw. Then move the container outwards as indicated in
the illustration. Remove plug (3) with rubber boot (4) and add brake fluid
DOT 5.1 (Motorex Brake Fluid DOT 5.1) up to the „MAX“ mark. Replace
rubber boot and plug. Overflown or spilled brake liquid must be rinsed off
with water. Mount the screw and fix the brake fluid reservoir to the frame,
always making sure to prevent kinks in the connecting hose.

WARNING: Never use DOT5 brake fluid! It is based on silicone

oil and of a purple color. Seals and brake hoses must be
especially adapted to it.

Store brake fluid out of reach of children.
Brake fluid can cause skin irritation. Avoid contact with skin

and eyes. If you get brake fluid in your eyes, rinse with plenty
of water and consult a doctor.

CAUTION: Don’t let brake fluid get in contact with paint, it

is an effective paint remover.
Use only clean brake fluid taken from a tightly sealed

container!

CHECKING THE REAR BRAKE PADS

The brake pads can be inspected from the rear. The thickness of the linings
may not be less than 1 mm (0.04 in).

WARNING:At their most worn point brake pad linings should

not be thinner than 1 mm, otherwise they could lead to brake
failure. For your own safety don’t put off having your brake
pads changed.

CAUTION: If the brake pads are replaced too late so that the

lining is partly or entirely worn, the steel components of the
brake pad will rub against the brake disc, thereby imparing
the braking effect and destroying the brake disc.

REPLACING THE REAR BRAKE PADS *

Push the brake caliper (1) toward the chain wheel in order to move the
brake piston into its basic position. Remove the clip (2), pull out the bolt
(3), and remove the brake pads. Thoroughly clean the brake caliper with
compressed air and check the sleeves of the guide bolts for damage.

Insert the left brake pad into the brake caliper and secure it with the bolt.
Insert the right brake pad and push the bolt (3) into the brake caliper up
to the stop. Reattach clip (2).

WARNING: It is very important to keep the brake disk free from

oil and fatty matters. Otherwise, the braking effect would be
strongly reduced.

After assembly, check if the clip has been fitted correctly.
After working on the braking system, always actuate the hand

brake lever or foot brake lever, respectively to ensure that the
brake pads will lie against the brake disk and the pressure
point is established.

DISMOUNTING AND MOUNTING THE FRONT WHEEL

To remove the front wheel, jack the motorcycle up on its frame so that the
front wheel no longer touches the ground. Loosen the 2 clamping screws
(1) on the left side of the fork fists. Loosen and remove the collar nut (2),
loosen the clamping screws (3) on the right side of the fork fist. Hold the
front wheel, pull out the wheel spindle (4).

CAUTION: Do not operate the hand brake when the front

wheel has been dismounted.
Make sure the brake disc is always on top when you lay down

the wheel, otherwise the brake disc can be damaged.

Before remounting the front wheel, clean and grease the shaft seal rings
(A) and the bearing surface (B) of the distance bushings and mount the
distance bushings

To install the front wheel, lift it into the fork, position and mount the axle
shaft (4). Mount the collar nut (2), tighten the clamping screws (3) on the
right fork leg axle passage to prevent the axle shaft from turning and tigh­ten the collar nut to 40 Nm.
Loosen the clamp screws on the right fork leg. Take the motorcycle down
from its stand. Press the front wheel brakes and push down on the fork
a few times vigorously so that the fork legs come into alignment.
Only after this has been accomplished, tighten the clamp screws on both
fork legs with 15 Nm.

WARNING: If you don’t happen to have a torque wrench at

hand, make sure you have the tightening torque corrected
by a Husaberg dealer as soon as possible. A loose axle may
lead to an unstable driving behavior of your motorcycle.

After mounting the front wheel, keep operating the hand brake
until the pressure point returns.

It is very important to keep the brake disk free from oil and

caliper support is still held.
Push the rear wheel as far forward as possible, take the chain from the
chain wheel and carefully take the rear wheel out of the swingarm.

CAUTION: Do not operate the rear brake when the rear wheel

has been dismounted.
Make sure the brake disc is always on top when you lay down

the wheel, otherwise the brake disc can be damaged.
If the axle is dismounted, clean the thread of the wheel spindle

and collar nut thoroughly and apply a new coat of grease to
prevent the thread from jamming.

The rear wheel is remounted in the reverse order. Before tightening the
collar nut to 80 Nm, push the rear wheel forwards so that the chain
tensioners lie on the tension screws.

WARNING: If you don’t happen to have a torque wrench at

hand, make sure you have the tightening torque
corrected by a Husaberg dealer as soon as possible. A loose
axle may lead to an unstable driving behavior of your
motorcycle.

After mounting the rear wheel, keep operating the rear brake
until the pressure point returns.

It is very important to keep the brake disk free from oil and

CHECKING THE SHOCK ABSORPTION RUBBERS IN
THE REAR HUB*

The FS models have a damped rear wheel hub. For this purpose, the engine
power is conveyed from the rear sprocket via 6 shock absorption rubbers
(1) to the rear wheel. These 6 absorption rubbers wear with increasing
operation time, and should be checked for wear whenever the rear wheel
is dismounted.

For this purpose, lie the rear wheel on a work bench with the rear spro­cket upwards, and put the wheel spindle in the hub. Now hold the rear
wheel firmly and try to turn the rear sprocket. The rear sprocket may not
turn more than maximum 5 mm (0,2 in) measured on the outside. If the
play in the chain wheel is larger, all 6 shock absorption rubbers are to be
replaced.
Check the shock absorption rubbers for signs of damage and dirt.

CAUTION: If the shock absorption rubbers are not replaced

in good time, the rear sprocket carrier and the rear hub will
be damaged. Allways replace all 6 absorption rubbers, never
single rubbers.

CHECKING SPOKE TENSION

The correct spoke tension is very important for the stability of the wheels
and thus for riding safety. A loose spoke causes the wheel to become unbal­anced and before long other spokes will have come loose. Check spoke
tension, especially on a new motorcycle, at regular intervals. For checking,
tap on each spoke with the blade of a screwdriver (see photo). A clear
tone must be the result. Dull tones are indicators of loose spokes. If
necessary, have the spokes retightened and the wheel centered by a Hus­aberg dealer.

WARNING: Spokes can tear if you continue to ride with them

loose. This may lead to an unstable handling of your
motorcycle.

Excessively tensioned spokes may rupture due to local over­loading.The spokes must be tensioned to 5 Nm

max. 5 mm

TIRES, AIR PRESSURE

Tire type, tire condition, and air pressure level affect the way your motor­cycle rides and must therefore be checked whenever you are getting ready
to go anywhere on your motorcycle.
– Tire size can be found in the technical specifications and in the homo-

logation certificate

– Tire condition has to be checked every time you want to ride your motor-

cycle. Before leaving, check tires for punctures and nails or other sharp
objects that might have become embedded in them.

– Refer to the specific regulations in your country for minimum tire tread

requirements. We recommend you replace the tires at the latest when
the tread is down to 2 mm (0.08 in).

– Tire pressure should be checked regularly on a “cold” tire. Proper pres-

sure ensures optimum driving comfort and extends the life of your tires.

WARNING: Do not mount tires which have not been appro­ved by Husaberg. Other tires could have adverse effects on
the way your motorcycle behaves.

Front and rear wheels may only be fitted with tires having the
same tread layout. Use homologated tires.

For your own safety replace damaged tires immediately.
Worn tires can have a negative effect on how your motorcy-

cle performs, especially on wet surfaces.
If air pressure is too low, abnormal wear and overheating of

the tire can result.

CHECK/SET DISTANCE OF THE MAGNETIC SENSOR

The distance between magnet (2) and sensor (1) must be 2-4 mm
(0,08-0,16 in), otherwise malfunctions on the speedometer might occur.

This distance can be corrected by screwing in or off the sensor (1).

BATTERY

The battery (1) is located in front of the shock absorber and is mainte­nance-free.
It is not necessary to check the electrolyte level or to add water. Merely
keep the battery poles clean and grease slightly with acid-free grease if
required.

WARNING: If electrolyte (sulphuric acid) leaks from the bat-

tery, proceed with great care. The electrolyte can cause severe
burns.

In the case of skin contact rinse thoroughly with water.
In the case of contact with the eyes, thoroughly rinse eyes-

with water for at least 15 minutes. Immediately consult a
doctor.

The battery is a closed model but can nevertheless emit
explosive gases. Avoid sparks and open fire near the battery.

Defective batteries must be stored out of the reach of child­ren.Ensure proper disposal of discarded batteries.

CAUTION: To avoid damage, do not remove the locking

bar (2) !
Never disconnect the battery while the engine is running. This

will destroy the rectifier-regulator.

BATTERY STORAGE:
When preparing the motorcycle for a longer period of standstill, remove
the battery and recharge it. Storage temperature: 0 - 35°C (30 - 95°F).
Do not expose to direct sunlight.

CHARGING THE BATTERY

Disconnect the negative pole and check the charging level. Use a
voltmeter to measure the voltage between the battery poles (off-load vol­tage). Accurate results can only be obtained if the battery has neither been
charged nor discharged during a period of 30 minutes preceding the
measuring.
If the battery is empty, it can be recharged for a maximum period of 10
hours at 0.4 A and a maximum of 14.4 V.

CAUTION: To avoid damage, do not remove the locking

bar.
Always connect the battery to the charging unit before tur-

ning the charging unit on.
When recharging the battery in closed rooms there is suffi-

cient venti-lation. Explosive gases are released during the bat­tery charging process.

Charging time and charging voltage should not exceed the
stated values. Otherwise electrolyte will be released through
the safety valves.

Avoid quick charging if possible.

FUSE

The fuse (1) is located in the electric starter relay (2) above the battery.
The fuse can be seen after removing the protection cover (A).

The following loads are connected to it:
– E-starter system
– Horn
– Speedometer
– Flasher light

The starter relay also contains a (10 amp) spare fuse (3).

Replace a blown fuse only with an equivalent one. If a new fuse that has
just been installed gets blown again, you are strongly advised to have it
inspected by a Husaberg dealer.
The fuse capacity is 10 Ampere.

CAUTION: Under no circumstances is a stronger fuse allo-

wed to be installed or a fuse allowed to be “repaired”. An impro­per treatment could damage the whole electrical installation.

REPLACING HEADLIGHT LAMP/PARKING LIGHT LAMP

Loosen both rubber bands and tilt headlight mask to the front. Pull the
parking light lamp with holder (4) carefully out of the reflector. Pull con­nector (5) off the headlamp and remove rubber cap (6). Disengage retai­ning clip and take bulb out of reflector. When changing the parking-light
lamp, simply pull it out of the holder.

Insert the new lamp such that the noses (7) engage in the recesses (8).
When doing so, do not touch the glass body of the lamp so that it remains
free from fat. Engage retaining clip, mount rubber cap and connector. If
the parking-light lamp is to be replaced, simply insert it in the holder. Rein­sert the parking-light lamp together with the holder.
Engage the bottom end of the headlamp mask at the retaining pins and
fix the mask by means of the rubber bands.

COOLING SYSTEM

Coolant is circulated by a water pump (1) located in the engine.
Air blowing in through the radiators cools the coolant. The slower the speed
of the motorcycle, the less the coolant is cooled down. Dirty radiators also
reduce the cooling efficiency.
Pressure induced by heating of the coolant in the system is controlled by
a valve in the radiator cap (2); a water temperature rising up to 120° C
(248° F) is admissible, without fear of problems.

WARNING: If possible, always check level of cooling liquid

when the engine is cold.If you have to open the radiator cap
(2) when the engine is hot, use a rag to cover the cap and
open slowly to release pressure. Caution - scalding hazard.

Do not detach any radiator hoses while the engine is hot. The
escaping hot coolant and the steam may cause serious burns.

In case you get burnt, hold the affected part of your body under
running cold water right away.

Coolant is toxic. Keep the coolant out of the reach of
children.

In case coolant is ingested, consult a doctor immediately.
If coolant gets into your eyes, rinse them out with water imme-

diately and consult doctor.

A mixture of 40% antifreeze liquid and 60% water is used as
coolant. However, the antifreeze protection must be at least

-25° C (-13° F). This mixture offers antifreeze protection but also good
corrosion protection and should therefore not be replaced by pure water.

CAUTION: If the coolant has been drained, it will be absolu-

tely necessary to bleed the cooling system during filling.
For the cooling system, use only high-grade antifreeze (e.g.

Motorex Anti Freeze). Using lower-grade antifreeze agents can
cause corrosion and coolant foaming.

Extreme climate conditions or stop and go Traffic may cause
overheating problems.

CHECKING THE COOLANT LEVEL

The coolant should be 10 mm (0.4 in) above the radiator fins when the
engine is cold (see diagram). In the event of the coolant being drained,
always fill and bleed the system.

CAUTION: If the coolant has been drained, it will be absolu-

tely necessary to bleed the cooling system during filling.

BLEEDING THE COOLING SYSTEM

The cooling liquid is drained by removing the hose (1) from the water pump.
To bleed the cooling system, fill in approx. 1 liter (0.26 US gallons) of coolant
and remove the bleeder screw (2). Do not reinstall the bleeder screw until
coolant escapes at the bore without any bubbles.
Then, fill in the coolant until it reaches a level about 10mm above the radi­ator fins. After a short ride, check the coolant level once more.

REPLACING THE GLASSFIBER YARN PACKING OF
THE SILENCER *

Aluminum silencers are filled with glassfiber yarn to muffle noise. The effect
of heat causes the glassfiber yarn to become loose. This may lead to a
loss of performance and reduce the silencer's muffling power. By expe­rience, the front glassfiber yarn packing (3) needs to be replaced more
often than the rear silencing mat (4).
For this purpose, remove the silencer from the vehicle and dismount the
front cap (5). Pull the front glassfiber yarn packing together with the inner
exhaust pipe (6) out of the silencer. Clean the front inner exhaust pipe.
To facilitate the mounting procedure, you can make a mounting tool (7)
out of wood, plastic, or metal. Insert the mounting tool into the inner pipe
and mount the glassfiber packing. Push the inner pipe containing the packing
into the silencer such that the slot engages the web (A). Use a blunt ended
object to stuff the glassfiber yarn packing all the way into the silencer, and
mount the front cap (C).

To change the rear silencing mat, start by removing the front packing and
the inner exhaust pipe. Then, drill open the rivets and remove the end
cap.

NOTE: In every exhaust repair procedure, the O-rings must

be replaced by new ones. Glass fiber yarn packings are avai­lable from your licensed Husaberg mechanic.

WARNING: The exhaust system becomes very hot while the

motorcycle is running. to avoid burns do not start work on
the exhaust system until it has properly cooled down.

CLEANING THE SPARK ARRESTER *

The spark arrester should be cleaned every time the glassfiber yarn fil­ling is changed or at least once annually.
For this purpose, dismount the silencer cap and remove any deposits that
might exist in region (B). Renew the O-ring and mount the silencer cap.

CLEANING THE AIR FILTER *

The air filter must be cleaned prior to every race or depending on the accu­mulation of dust.
To clean, remove the seat, unscrew the wing screw and remove the air
filter together with the filter support.

CAUTION: Do not clean air filter with fuel or petroleum since

these damage the foam. Husaberg recommends the products
of the company „Motorex“ for air filter maintenance. (Motorex
Bio Dirt Remover + Motorex Liquid Bio Power)

Never operate your motorcycle without air filter. Otherwise,
dust and dirt may get into the engine and lead to increased
wear.

Thoroughly wash the air filter with special cleaning fluid and allow to dry.
Press out the water from the air filter but do not wring. Lubricate the dry
air filter with high-grade filter oil. Check the carburetor connection boot
for damage and a good fit.
Mount the air filter on the filter support. Attach the air filter and filter sup­port to the frame, making sure it is centered and fix with the wing screw.

CHECKING THE ADJUSTMENT OF THE HAND
DECOMPRESSION RELEASE CABLE *

Start the engine and, at idling speed, slowly pull the hand decompression
lever until you can feel the thumping of the rocker arm on the lever. The
backlash until said thumping should be approx. 10mm, measured at the
lever's outer end. If necessary, correct this backlash.
To adjust, move back the protective cover (1), loosen the counter nut (2)
and correct the adjustment screw (3) accordingly. Tighten counter nut and
push back protective cover.

CAUTION: The setting of the decompression cable should be

checked regulary. If there is no play in the deko-lever, this can
result in engine damage.

NOTE: No adjustment need be made to the automatic decom-

pressor.

ADJUSTING THE THROTTLE CABLES *

The throttle grip should always provide for a backlash of 3-5 mm. Besi­des, with the engine running, the idling speed must not change if you turn
the handlebar all the way to the left or right.
To adjust the throttle cables, dismount the seat and the tank together with
spoilers. Slide back the protection cover (4). Loosen the counternut (5)
and turn the adjusting screw bk accordingly. Turning the adjusting screw
(6) counterclockwise will reduce the backlash, turning the adjusting screw
clockwise will increase the backlash.
Tighten the counternut and check whether the throttle grip can be
actuated smoothly. Mount tank and seat.

CHANGING THE ORIGINAL POSITION OF THE
CLUTCH LEVER

The adjusting screw (1) can be used for individual adjustment of the ori­ginal position of the clutch lever, thus allowing adjustment to an optimal
position for every hand size.
Turning the adjusting screw clockwise reduces the distance
between the clutch lever and the handlebar. Turning the adjusting screw
counterclockwise increases the distance between the clutch lever and the
handlebar.

CAUTION: Adjustment of the clutch lever position is only

possible within certain limits. Only turn the adjusting screw
manually and never apply excessive force.

CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL OF THE HYDRAULIC
CLUTCH

To check the oil level in the master cylinder of the clutch remove the cover.
For this purpose, remove screws (2) and cover (3) together with the rub­ber boot (4). The oil level in the horizontal-standing master cylinder should
be 4 mm below the upper edge.
If necessary, fill up with biodegradable hydraulic oil SAE 10 (e.g. Moto­rex Kupplungs-Fluid 75).Biodegradable hydraulic oil is available from
your Husaberg dealer (50ml).

CAUTION: Husaberg uses biodegradable hydraulic oil for the

hydraulic clutch control. Never mix biodegradable hydraulic
oils with mineral oils. Never refill with mineral hydraulic oil
or brake fluid.

BLEEDING OF THE HYDRAULIC CLUTCH *

To bleed, the cover of the master cylinder of the clutch needs to be
removed. For this purpose, remove screws (2) and take off cover (3) toget-
her with rubber bellows (4). At the slave cylinder of the clutch, remove
the bleeder nipple (5). In its place, mount the bleeder syringe (6) which
is filled with SAE 10 hydraulic oil. Refill oil until oil is discharged from the
bore (7) of the master cylinder in a bubble-free state. Make sure that the
oil does not overflow. The bleeder syringe can be purchased from your
Husaberg dealer.Having completed the bleeding procedure, you have to
verify that the oil level in the master cylinder is correct.If necessary, fill up
with biodegradable hydraulic oil SAE 10 (e.g. Motorex Kupplungs-Fluid

75). Biodegradable hydraulic oil is available from your Husaberg dealer
(50ml).

CAUTION: Husaberg uses biodegradable hydraulic oil for the

hydraulic clutch control. Never mix biodegradable hydraulic
oils with mineral oils. Never refill with mineral hydraulic oil
or brake fluid.

CARBURETOR – ADJUST IDLING *

Idling adjustment of the carburetor strongly affects the engine’s starting
behavior. That is, an engine whose idling speed is adjusted correctly will
be easier to start than one whose idling speed has not been adjusted
correctly.

The idle speed is controlled by means of the adjusting wheel (1) and the
mixture control screw (2). The adjusting wheel is used to adjust the basic
setting of the slide. The mixture control screw is used to control the idle
mixture which arrives at the engine by way of the idle system. Clockwise
turning reduces the fuel quantity (lean mixture), counterclockwise turning
increases the fuel quantity (rich mixture).
To adjust idling correctly, proceed as follows:
1 Turn in mixture control screw (2) up to the stop, and turn it back out

to the basic position (see technical date-engine)

2 Warm up the engine
3 Use the adjusting wheel (1) to set the normal idle speed (1400 - 1500

rpm).

4 Turn mixture control screw (2) slowly clockwise until idling speed

starts to decrease. Memorize this position, and turn mixture control
screw slowly counterclockwise until the idling speed decreases again.
Adjust the point of the highest idling speed between these two posi­tions. If, in the course of this procedure, the speed undergoes a rela­tively high increase, reduce the idle speed to a normal level and repeat
the procedure specified in 4. Serious competitive racers will choose
a setting approx. 1/4 turn (clockwise) leaner than this ideal value
because their engine will heat up more when used in competitions.

NOTE: If you fail to obtain a satisfying result by following the

procedure described above, an incorrectly dimensioned idling
nozzle may be the cause. If:

a) the mixture control screw has been screwed in up to the
stop without causing any change in rotational speed, a smal­ler idling jet has to be installed;

b) the engine dies when the mixture control screw is still open
by 2 turns, a larger idling jet needs to be selected.

Naturally, in cases of jet changes, you have to start your adju­sting work from the beginning.

5 Then, use the adjusting wheel to set the desired idle speed.
6 In cases of greater changes in the outside temperature and extremely

different altitudes, the idling speed should be readjusted.

BASIC INFORMATION ON CARBURETOR WEAR

As a result of engine vibrations, the throttle valve, jet needle, and needle
jet are subjected to increased wear. This wear may cause the carburetor
to malfunction (e.g., overly rich mixture). Therefore, these parts should
be replaced after 200 hours.

ADJUSTING THE MIXTURE CONTROL SCREW *

The mixture control screw is used to adjust the idle mixture.
Turning the mixture control screw in a clockwise direction will reduce the
idle mixture, turning it in a counterclockwise direction will increase the idle
mixture.

CHECKING THE FLOAT LEVEL (FLOAT HEIGHT) *

For this purpose, dismount the carburetor and remove the float chamber.
Hold the carburetor in a slanted position such that the float will abut the
float needle valve but not compress it.
In this position, the edge of the float should be parallel with the float cham­ber sealing surface (see illustration).
If the float height does not correspond to the desired value, check the
float needle valve and, if necessary, replace it.

If the float needle valve is o.k., you can adjust the float height by bending
the float lever (1).

Mount the float chamber, install the carburetor, and adjust the idle speed.

DRAINING THE FLOAT CHAMBER OF THE CARBURETOR *

Following every wet cleaning procedure, the float chamber of the carbu­retor should be drained in order to remove any water that may have pene­trated into it. Water in the float chamber causes engine malfunction.
Perform this task on a cold engine. Close the fuel tap, and place a cloth
underneath the carburetor, which is able to absorb any escaping fuel.
Unscrew the plug (2), and clean it with compressed air. Mount the plug
and gasket and tighten to 4 Nm, open the fuel tap, and check the float
chamber for any leaks.

NOTE: Fuel is easily flammable and toxic. When handling

fuel, be sure to exercise the utmost caution. Never perform
any work on the fuel system near open flames or burning
cigarettes.

Always allow the engine to cool off first. Immediately clean
up any fuel which may have been spilled. Materials satura­ted with fuel are also easily flammable. In case you ingested
fuel or fuel splashed into your eyes, consult a doctor
immediately.

Dispose of the fuel properly.

INTERCEPTING TANK FOR THE CARBURETOR VENTILATION:
To prevent fuel from running out after a fall, mount the intercepting tank
(included) for racing purposes. Screw the intercepting tank (3) to the bot­tom of the frame crossrail using the clamp and HH collar screws.
A drain plug is located on the bottom to drain the tank.

OIL CIRCUIT

The oil pump (4) draws the engine oil from the oil sump through the oil
screen (5) and pumps it past the pressure relief valve (6) to the oil filter
(7). It continues to the crankshaft (8), partly branching off through a hole
to lubricate and cool the piston (9) and the piston pin bearing. Once
through the crankshaft, the engine oil is pumped to the conrod bearing
(10) and branches off again to the bearings in the balance weight (11).
The camshaft (12) is lubricated by the engine oil which is transported to
the cylinder head by the timing chain (13).
On the downward movement of the piston, engine oil is pressed from the
crankcase through the diaphragm valve (not depicted) to the transmis­sion and shift mechanism.

CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL

The engine oil level can be checked with the engine either warm or cold.
Place the motorcycle in an upright position and on a horizontal surface
(not on the side stand).

If the engine is cold, the engine oil must be visible at the lower edge of
the inspection glass (A).
If the engine is warm, the engine oil must be visible up to the upper edge
of the inspection glass (B).
Replenish the engine oil, if necessary.

CAUTION: Insufficient amounts of or low-grade engine oil

lead to premature wear in the engine.

ENGINE OIL

Automobile engine oil used to be used for four-stroke motorcycles before
there were separate motorcycle specifications. Different technical deve­lopments made it necessary to have a separate specification for four-stroke
motorcycles - the JASO T903 MA standard. Whereas car engines require
long changing intervals, motorcycle engines require a higher power out­put at higher speeds. Most motorcycle engines also use the same oil to
lubricate the transmission and the clutch. The JASO MA standard res­ponds to these special requirements.
Only use fully synthetic engine oils that meet the JASO MA quality requi­rements (see information on the can). Husaberg recommends Motorex
Power Synt 4T in the 10W/50 viscosity (for temperatures over 0°C, 32°F)
or 5W/40 (for temperatures under 0°C, 32°F).

CAUTION: Insufficient amounts of or low-grade engine oil

lead to premature wear in the engine.

CHANGING THE ENGINE OIL *

NOTE: When changing the engine oil, it is necessary to clean

the short and long oil screens and to replace both oil filters.

WARNING: An engine at operating temperature and the engine

oil it contains are very hot - do not burn or scald yourself.

Place the motorcycle on a horizontal surface, remove the plug (1) and
allow the oil to drain into a receptacle.
Clean plug (with magnet) thoroughly.
Once the entire oil has been drained, clean the sealing surface, mount
the plug together with the sealing ring and tighten it to 20 Nm.

CLEANING THE OIL SCREEN

Dismount the plug (2) with the oil screen, thoroughly clean the parts and
blow clean with compressed air.
Check the O-rings (4) for damage and replace if necessary.
Insert the oil screen in the plug (2), mount and tighten the plug to 15 Nm.

CHANGING THE OIL FILTER

Place a suitable vessel under the engine to allow the oil to drain.
Remove both screws (1) and screw an M6 screw in the center hole (2)
of the oil filter cover.

NOTE: only tighten the screw by hand, otherwise you will

damage the oil filter cover.

Pull the oil filter cover (3) out of the hole with the screw M6 and remove
the screw.

Use pliers to pull the oil filter element (4) from the housing.
Clean the oil filter cover, the sealing areas on the O-rings and the engine
case. check the O-rings (5) in the
oil filter cover for damage and replace if necessary.

Lay the motorcycle down and fill the oil filter housing approx. half-full with
engine oil. Insert the oil filter in the housing.
Grease the O-rings in the oil filter cover and mount the cover. Mount the
screws and tighten to 6 Nm.

Place the motorcycle in an upright position again.

Unscrew the oil filler plug (6) and add 1 liter of fully synthetic engine oil
(e.g.: Motorex Power Synt. 4T).
Start the engine and check all of the plugs and the oil filter cover for
leakage.
Finally, check the engine oil level and correct if necessary.

TROUBLE CAUSE REMEDY

Engine doesn’t crank (E-starter) Operating errror

Blown fuse

Discharged battery.

Low outside temperature

Turn on the emergency-OFF switch (Australia only)

Dismount the left paneling and the filter box cover and
replace the fuse in the starter relay.

Recharge the battery and investigate the causes for discharg­ing; contact a Husaberg dealer.

Start the engine with the kickstarter

Engine cranks but doesn’t start (E­starter).
Engine will not start (Kickstarter)

Operating error

The motorcycle has been out of
operation for a longer period of time.
Therefore old fuel has accumulated
in the float chamber

Fuel supply interrupted

Flooded engine

Sooty or wet spark plug

Electrode gap too large

Spark plug connector or spark plug
faulty

Short circuit cable scored in wiring
harness, emergency OFF switch or
short circuit button faulty

The plug connection of the CDI­unit, the pulse generator or the igni­tion coil has oxydized

Water in carburetor or jets blocked

Open fuel tap, tank fuel, actuate choke. Pay attention to start­ing information (see driving instructions).

The easily inflammable components of the new fuels eva­porate during longer periods of standing still.
When the motorcycle has been out of operation for more
than a week, it is therefore recommended to drain the old
fuel from the float chamber. The engine will immediately start
when the float chamber is filled with new fuel.

Close fuel tap, loosen fuel hose at carburetor, lead into a
basin and open fuel tap
– if fuel leaks out, the carburetor may need cleaning
– if no fuel leaks out, check tank ventilation, i.e. clean fuel

tap

In order to "pump the engine free", pull the hand decom­pression lever, fully rev up the engine, actuate the kickstarter
5 to 10 times or actuate the E-starter 2 times for 5 seconds
each. Then, start the engine as described above.
If the engine fails to start, unscrew the spark plug and dry it.

Clean and dry the spark plug or exchange it, respectively

Adjust spark plug electrode gap to 0.6 mm

Dismount spark plug, connect ignition cable, hold to ground
(blank place on engine) and actuate starter, a strong spark
must be produced at the spark plug
– If no spark is created replace the spark plug.
– If the new spark plug doesn't produce a spark either, dis-

connect the spark plug connector from the ignition cable,

hold it a distance of approx. 5 mm from ground and start.
– If a spark now occurs, replace spark plug cap
– If no spark is produced, control ignition system

Dismount the fuel tank, disconnect the black/yellow cable
from the cable of the emergency-OFF switch and the short­circuit button, respectively, and check the ignition spark.
If a spark is generated, look for the problem in the short-cir­cuit circuit.

Remove the seat and the fuel tank. Clean the plug connection
and treat it with contact spray

Dismount and clean the carburetor

Engine fails to idle Glogged idling jet

Incorrect adjustment of adjusting
screws on carburetor

Defective spark plug

Defective ignition system

Disassemble the carburetor and clean the jets

Have the carburetor adjusted

Replace the spark plug

Have the ignition system checked

ENGLISH

Clean your motorcycle regularly in order to maintain the beauty of its plastic surfaces.
The best manner would be to use warm water that has been mixed with a normal brand-name washing detergent and a sponge. The
hard dirt can be removed before washing with the help of a soft water jet.

CAUTION: Never clean your motorcycle with a high-pressured cleaner or a high-pressured water jet. The water could

otherwise run into the electrical components, connectors, sheathed cables, bearings, carburetor, etc. and cause distur­bances or lead to a premature destruction of these parts.

– You should use normal brand-name detergents to clean the motorcycle. Especially dirty parts should also be cleaned with the

help of a paint brush.
– Before cleaning with water, plug the exhaust pipe to prevent water ingress
– After the motorcycle has been rinsed with a soft water jet, it should be dried by air pressure and a cloth. Drain the float chamber

of the carburetor. Then take a short drive until the engine has reached the working temperature and also use the brakes. By war-

ming these components, the residual water can evaporate from inaccessable parts of the engine and the brakes.
– Slide back the protective covers on the handlebar-mounted instruments so that any water that may have seeped into this part of

the motorcycle is allowed to evaporate.
– Once the motorcycle has cooled down, oil or grease all sliding and bearing points. Treat the chain with a chain spray. Also oil the

fuel tap.
– To avoid any failures in of the electric system, you should treat the emergency-OFF switch, short-circuit button, light switch and

socket connectors with a contact spray.

In the event that the motorcycle is also used in winter and on roads where one has to expect salt spraying, you will have to take pre­cautions against the aggressive road salt.
– clean the motorcycle thoroughly and let it dry after each ride
– treat the engine, carburetor, swing arm, and all other bare or galvanized parts (except for brake discs) with a wax-based anti-cor-

rosion agent.

WARNING: Keep the anti-corrosion agent from getting into contact with the brake discs, otherwise this will signifi-

cantly reduce the braking power.

CAUTION: After rides on salted roads, clean motorcycle thoroughly with cold water and let it dry well.

Should you wish to make a pause over a longer space of time, please observe the following instructions:
– Clean motorcycle thoroughly (see chapter: CLEANING)
– Change engine oil, short and long oil filters (old engine oil contains aggressive contaminants).
– Check antifreeze and amount of cooling liquid.
– Warm up the engine once again, close the fuel cock and wait until the engine dies. Then open the drain plug of the float cham-

ber to remove the remaining fuel.
– Remove spark plug and fill in approx. 5 ccm of engine oil into the cylinder through the opening. Actuate kick-starter 10 times in

order to distribute the oil onto the cylinder walls and mount the spark plug.
– Set piston to compression so that the valves will be closed (slowly operate the kickstarter until you can hear the automatic decom-

pressor click (release))
– Let fuel flow out of tank into an appropriate container.
– Correct tire pressure.
– Lubricate pivot points of the control levers, foot rests, etc. as well as the chain.
– Service the shock absorber linkage
– Disassemble and charge battery (see chapter: BATTERY).
– The storage place should be dry and not subjected to excessive temperature fluctuations.
– Cover the motorcycle with an air permeated tarpaulin or blanket. Do not use airtight materials as a possible humidity might not

be able to escape and could cause corrosion.

CAUTION: It would be very bad to let the engine run for a short time during the storage period. The engine would not

get warmed up enough and the thus developed steam would condense during the combustion process and cause
the valves and exhaust to rust.

USE AFTER A PERIOD OF STORAGE
– Mount the charged battery (regard polarity), set clock.
– Fill up tank with fresh fuel.
– Check motorcycle as before each start (see driving instructions).
– Take a short, careful test ride first.
