Info
The motorcycle may only be used in closed off areas remote from public road traffic.

2.2 Safety advice

A number of safety instructions need to be followed to operate the vehicle safely. Therefore, read this manual carefully. The safety instructions are highlighted in the text and are referred to at the relevant passages.
Info
The vehicle has various information and warning labels at prominent locations. Do not remove information/warning labels. If they are missing, you or others may not recognize dangers and may therefore be injured.

2.3 Degrees of risk and symbols

2.4 Tampering warning

Tampering with the noise control system is prohibited. Federal law prohibits the following acts or the causing thereof:
1 The removal or rendering inoperative by any person other than for purposes of maintenance, repair, or replacement, of any device or
element of design incorporated into any new vehicle for the purpose of noise control prior to its sale or delivery to the ultimate pur­chaser or while it is in use, or
2 the use of the vehicle after such device or element of design has been removed or rendered inoperative by any person.
Among those acts presumed to constitute tampering are the acts listed below:
1 Removal or puncturing of the main silencer, baffles, header pipes or any other components which conduct exhaust gases. 2 Removal or puncturing of parts of the intake system. 3 Lack of proper maintenance. 4 Replacing moving part of the vehicle, or parts of the exhaust or intake system, with parts other than those specified by the manufac-
turer.

2.5 Safe operation

Danger
Danger of accidents Danger arising from the rider's judgement being impaired.
– Do not operate the vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, drugs and certain medications or physically or mentally
impaired.
Danger
Danger of poisoning Exhaust gases are toxic and inhaling them may result in unconsciousness and/or death.
– When running the engine, always make sure there is sufficient ventilation, and do not start or run the engine in an enclosed
space without an effective exhaust extraction system.
Page 8
2 SAFETY ADVICE 6
Warning
Danger of burns Some vehicle components become very hot when the vehicle is operated.
– Do not touch hot components such as exhaust system, radiator, engine, shock absorber, and the brake system. Allow these
components to cool down before starting work on them.
Only operate the vehicle when it is in perfect technical condition, in accordance with its intended use, and in a safe and environmentally compatible manner. The vehicle should only be used by trained persons. Have malfunctions that impair safety promptly eliminated by an authorized Husqvarna workshop. Adhere to the information and warning labels on the vehicle.

2.6 Protective clothing

Warning
Risk of injury Missing or poor protective clothing presents an increased safety risk.
– Wear protective clothing (helmet, boots, gloves, pants and jacket with protectors) every time you ride the vehicle. Always
wear protective clothing that is in good condition and meets the legal requirements.
In the interest of your own safety, Husqvarna recommends that you only operate the vehicle while wearing protective clothing.

2.7 Work rules

Special tools are necessary for certain tasks. The tools are not contained in the vehicle but can be ordered under the number in paren­theses. E.g.: bearing puller (15112017000) During assembly, non-reusable parts (e.g. self-locking screws and nuts, seals and seal rings, O-rings, pins, lock washers) must be replaced by new parts. In some instances, a thread locker (e.g. Loctite®) is required. The manufacturer instructions for use must be followed. After disassembly, clean the parts that are to be reused and check them for damage and wear. Change damaged or worn parts. After you complete the repair or service work, check the operating safety of the vehicle.

2.8 Environment

If you use your motorcycle responsibly, you can ensure that problems and conflicts do not occur. To protect the future of the motorcycle sport, make sure that you use your motorcycle legally, display environmental consciousness, and respect the rights of others. When disposing of used oil, other operating and auxiliary fluids, and used components, comply with the laws and regulations of the respective country. Because motorcycles are not subject to the EU regulations governing the disposal of used vehicles, there are no legal regulations that pertain to the disposal of an end-of-life motorcycle. Your authorized Husqvarna dealer will be glad to advise you.

2.9 Owner's Manual

It is important that you read this Owner's Manual carefully and completely before making your first trip. The Owner's Manual contains useful information and many tips on how to operate, handle, and maintain your motorcycle. Only then will you find out how to customize the vehicle ideally for your own use and how you can protect yourself from injury. Keep the Owner's Manual in an accessible place to enable you to refer to it as needed. If you would like to know more about the vehicle or have questions on the material you read, please contact an authorized Husqvarna dealer. The Owner's Manual is an important component of the vehicle and should be handed over to the new owner if the vehicle is sold.

3 IMPORTANT INFORMATION 7

3.1 Manufacturer and implied warranty

The work prescribed in the service schedule must be carried out by an authorized Husqvarna workshop only and confirmed in the cus­tomer's service & warranty booklet and in the Husqvarna dealer.net; otherwise, all warranty claims will be void. No warranty claims can be considered for damage resulting from manipulations and/or alterations to the vehicle. Additional information on the manufacturer or implied warranty and the procedures involved can be found in the service & warranty booklet.

3.2 Operating and auxiliary substances

Warning
Environmental hazard Improper handling of fuel is a danger to the environment.
– Do not allow fuel to get into the ground water, the ground, or the sewage system.
Use operating and auxiliary substances (such as fuel and lubricants) as specified in the Owner's Manual.

3.3 Spare parts, accessories

For your own safety, only use spare parts and accessory products that are approved and/or recommended by Husqvarna and have them installed by an authorized Husqvarna workshop. Husqvarna accepts no liability for other products and any resulting damage or loss. Certain spare parts and accessory products are specified in parentheses in the descriptions. Your authorized Husqvarna dealer will be glad to advise you.
The current Husky Power parts for your vehicle can be found on the Husqvarna website. International Husqvarna website: www.husqvarna-motorcycles.com

3.4 Service

A prerequisite for perfect operation and prevention of premature wear is that the service, care, and tuning work on the engine and chas­sis is properly carried out as described in the Owner's Manual. Incorrect adjustment and tuning of the engine and chassis can lead to damage and breakage of components. Use of the vehicle under difficult conditions, such as on sand or on wet and muddy surfaces, can lead to considerably more rapid wear of components such as the drive train, brake system, or suspension components. For this reason, it may be necessary to inspect or replace parts before the next scheduled service. It is imperative that you adhere to the stipulated run-in times and service intervals. If you observe these exactly, you will ensure a much longer service life for your motorcycle.

3.5 Figures

The figures contained in the manual may depict special equipment. In the interest of clarity, some components may be shown disassembled or may not be shown at all. It is not always necessary to disas­semble the component to perform the activity in question. Please follow the instructions in the text.

3.6 Customer service

Your authorized Husqvarna dealer will be happy to answer any questions you may have on your vehicle and Husqvarna.

8.2 Starting

Danger
Danger of poisoning Exhaust gases are toxic and inhaling them may result in unconsciousness and/or death.
– When running the engine, always make sure there is sufficient ventilation, and do not start or run the engine in an enclosed
space without an effective exhaust extraction system.
Note
Engine failure High engine speeds in cold engines have a negative effect on the service life of the engine.
– Always warm up the engine at low engine speeds.
– Remove the plug-in stand. – Shift gear to neutral.
Condition
Ambient temperature: < 20 °C (< 68 °F)
– Pull the cold start button out all the way.
– Press the electric starter button .
Info
400733-01
Press the electric starter button for at most 5 seconds. Wait for a least 5 sec­onds before trying again.
FI warning lamp lights up briefly as a functional control when starting.
Page 23
8 RIDING INSTRUCTIONS 21

8.3 Starting off

– Pull the clutch lever, engage 1st gear, release the clutch lever slowly and simultaneously open the throttle carefully.

8.4 Shifting, riding

Warning
Danger of accidents If you change down at high engine speed, the rear wheel can lock up.
– Do not change into a low gear at high engine speed. The engine races and the rear wheel can lock up.
Info
If you hear unusual noises while riding, stop immediately, switch off the engine, and contact an authorized Husqvarna workshop. First gear is used for starting off or for steep inclines.
– When conditions allow (incline, road situation, etc.), you can shift into a higher gear. To do so, release the throttle while simultane-
ously pulling the clutch lever, shift into the next gear, release the clutch and open the throttle.
– If, when starting, you have increased the idle speed, press the cold start button in all the way after the engine has heated up. – When you reach maximum speed after fully opening the throttle, turn back the throttle to about ¾ of its range. This barely reduces
vehicle speed but lowers fuel consumption considerably.
– Always open the throttle only as much as the engine can handle – abrupt throttle opening increases fuel consumption. – To shift down, brake and close the throttle at the same time. – Pull the clutch lever and shift into a lower gear, release the clutch lever slowly and open the throttle or shift again. – Switch off the engine if you expect to be standing for a long time.
Guideline
≥ 1 min
– Avoid frequent and longer slipping of the clutch. This heats the engine oil, the engine and the cooling system. – Ride with a lower engine speed instead of with a high engine speed and a slipping clutch.

8.5 Applying the brakes

Warning
Danger of accidents If you brake too hard, the wheels can lock.
– Adapt your braking to the traffic situation and the road conditions.
Warning
Danger of accidents Reduced braking efficiency caused by spongy pressure point of front or rear brake.
– Check the brake system and do not continue riding. (Your authorized Husqvarna workshop will be glad to help.)
Warning
Danger of accidents Reduced braking efficiency due to a wet or dirty brake system.
– Clean or dry a dirty or wet brake system by riding and braking gently.
– On sandy, wet or slippery surfaces, use the rear brake. – Braking should always be completed before you go into a bend. Change down to a lower gear appropriate to your road speed. – On long downhill stretches, use the braking effect of the engine. Change down one or two gears, but do not overstress the engine. In
this way, you have to apply the brakes far less frequently and the brake system does not overheat.

8.6 Stopping, parking

Warning
Risk of misappropriation Usage by unauthorized persons.
– Never leave the vehicle while the engine is running. Secure the vehicle against use by unauthorized persons.
Warning
Danger of burns Some vehicle components become very hot when the vehicle is operated.
– Do not touch hot components such as exhaust system, radiator, engine, shock absorber, and the brake system. Allow these
components to cool down before starting work on them.

10 TUNING THE CHASSIS 26

10.1 Checking the basic chassis setting with the rider's weight

Info
When adjusting the basic chassis setting, first adjust the shock absorber and then the fork.
– For optimal motorcycle riding characteristics and to avoid damage to forks, shock
absorbers, swingarm and frame, the basic settings of the suspension components must match the rider's weight.
– As delivered, Husqvarna motorcycles are adjusted for an average rider's weight (with
full protective clothing). Guideline
Standard rider weight 75… 85 kg (165… 187 lb.)
– If the rider's weight is above or below this range, the basic setting of the suspension
components must be adjusted accordingly.
– Small weight differences can be compensated by adjusting the spring preload, but in
the case of large weight differences, the springs must be replaced.
401030-01

10.2 Compression damping of the shock absorber

The compression damping of the shock absorber is divided into two ranges: high-speed and low-speed. High-speed and low-speed refer to the compression speed of the rear wheel suspension and not to the vehicle speed. The high-speed setting, for example, has an effect on the landing after a jump: the rear wheel suspension compresses more quickly. The low-speed setting, for example, has an effect when riding over long ground swells: the rear wheel suspension compresses more slowly. These two ranges can be adjusted separately, although the transition between high-speed and low-speed is gradual. Thus, changes in the high-speed range affect the compression damping in the low-speed range and vice versa.

10.3 Adjusting the low-speed compression damping of the shock absorber

Caution
Danger of accidents Disassembly of pressurized parts can lead to injury.
– The shock absorber is filled with high density nitrogen. Adhere to the description provided. (Your authorized Husqvarna work-

Page 69
13 WHEELS, TIRES 67
» If the tread depth is less than the minimum permissible depth:
– Change the tire.
– Check the tire age.
Info
The tire's date of manufacture is usually part of the tire markings and is indi­cated by the last four digits of the DOT marking. The first two digits indicate the week of manufacture and the last two digits the year of manufacture.

13.7 Checking the spoke tension

Warning
Danger of accidents Instable handling due to incorrect spoke tension.
– Ensure that the spoke tension is correct. (Your authorized Husqvarna workshop will be glad to help.)
Info
A loose spoke causes wheel imbalance and rapidly leads to more loose spokes. If the spokes are too tight, they can break due to local overload. Check the spoke tension regularly, especially on a new motorcycle.
– Briefly strike each spoke with the tip of a screwdriver.
Info
The tone frequency depends on the length of the spoke and the spoke diam­eter. If you hear different tone frequencies from different spokes of equal length and diameter, this is an indication of different spoke tensions.

Only charge in well-ventilated rooms. – In the event of skin contact, rinse with large amounts of water. If battery acid gets in the eyes, rinse with water for at least 15
minutes and contact a physician.
Warning
Environmental hazard Battery components and acid are harmful to the environment.
– Do not dispose of batteries with the household waste. Dispose of a defective battery in an environmentally friendly manner.
Give it to your Husqvarna dealer or to a disposal center for used batteries.
Warning
Environmental hazard Hazardous substances cause environmental damage.
– Oil, grease, filters, fuel, cleaners, brake fluid, etc., should be disposed of as stipulated in applicable regulations.
Info
Even when there is no load on the battery, it still loses power steadily. The charging level and the method of charging are very important for the service life of the battery. Rapid recharging with a high charging current shortens the battery's service life. If the charging current, charging voltage and charging time are exceeded, electrolyte escapes through the safety valves. This reduces the battery capacity. If the battery is depleted from starting the vehicle repeatedly, the battery must be charged immediately. If the battery is left in a discharged state for an extended period, it will become over-discharged and sulfate, destroying the bat­tery. The battery is maintenance-free, which means that the acid level does not need to be checked.
Preparatory work
– Switch off all power consumers and switch off the engine. – Remove the seat. ( p. 42) – Disconnect the negative cable of the battery to avoid damage to the onboard elec-
tronics.
Main work
– Connect the battery charger to the battery. Switch on the battery charger.

15 COOLING SYSTEM 71

15.1 Cooling system

Water pump1in the engine circulates the coolant. The pressure resulting from the warming of the cooling system is regulated by a valve in radiator cap2. This ensures that operating the vehicle at the specified coolant temper­ature will not result in a risk of malfunctions.
120 °C (248 °F)
Cooling is effected by the air stream. The lower the speed, the less the cooling effect. Dirty cooling fins also reduce the cooling effect.

25 STANDARDS 93

JASO T903 MA
Different technical development directions required a new specification for 4-stroke motorcycles – the JASO T903 MA Standard. Earlier, engine oils from the automobile industry were used for 4-stroke motorcycles because there was no separate motorcycle specification. Whereas long service intervals are demanded for automobile engines, high performance at high engine speeds are in the foreground for motorcycle engines. In most motorcycles, the gearbox and the clutch are lubricated with the same oil as the engine. The JASO MA Stan­dard meets these special requirements.
SAE
The SAE viscosity classes were defined by the Society of Automotive Engineers and are used for classifying oils according to their vis­cosity. The viscosity describes only one property of oil and says nothing about quality.
