PRESENTATION

Welcome to the Husqvarna motorcycling Family!

Your new Husqvarna motorcycle is designed and manufactured to be the finest in its field.

The instructions in this book have been prepared to provide a simple and understandable guide for your motorcycle’s operation and care.

Follow the instructions carefully to obtain maximum performance and your personal motorcycling pleasure. Your owner’s manual contains instructions for owner care and maintenance. Information covering repair of major units such as engine, transmission, etc. is provided in the Husqvarna Service Manual. The information concerning details or main work of repair or maintenance are described in the Husqvarna Service Manual. This manual is available upon request by stating the code number set on pages 95, 96, 97, 98. Work of this kind requires the attention of a skilled mechanic and the use of special tools and equipment.

Your Husqvarna dealer has the facilities, experience and original parts necessary to properly render this valuable service.

This “Owner’s Manual” and the “Purchase Registration Booklet” are parts and parcels of the motorcycle, hence, they have to remain with the motorcycle even when sold to another user.This “Owner’s Manual” and the “Purchase Registration Booklet” are parts and parcels of the motorcycle, hence, they have to remain with the motorcycle even when sold to another user.

This motorcycle uses components designed thanks to systems and state of the art technologies which are thereafter tested in competition.

In competition motorcycles, every detail is verified after each race in order to always guarantee better performance. For correct functioning of the vehicle, it is necessary to follow the maintenance and control table found on Appendix A.

IMPORTANT

The reference for recognition of the guarantee will be the MOTORCYCLE CONFIGURATION, as shown below:

A)STANDARD MOTORCYCLE, STREET LEGAL: with LIMITED POWER ENGINE

B)COMPETITION MOTORCYCLE, RACING USE: with FULL POWER ENGINE

This motorcycles was not designed for long trips with the engine always at maximum rpm as can occur whilst travelling on roads or highways. Long trips at full throttle can cause severe damage to the engine.

This motorcycles is setup for competition use and therefore guarantees maximum performance with the rider alone. It is thereby not recommended to use the vehicle on circuits or off-road with a passenger.

ALWAYS keep in mind that these motorcycles have been designed strictly for competition use, that is, for conditions of usage very different from those presented on the road.

ALWAYS keep in mind that these motorcycles have been designed strictly for competition use, that is, for conditions of usage very different from those presented on the road.

In order to maintain the vehicle’s “Guarantee of Functionality”, the client must follow the maintenance program indicated in the user’s manual by carrying out maintenance checks at authorized HUSQVARNA dealers. The cost for substitut-

ing parts and for the labour necessary in order to respect the maintenance plan, is charged to the client.

NOTE: the guarantee is EXTINGUISHED in the case where the motorcycle is rented.

Important Notice

Read this manual carefully and pay special attention to statements preceeded by the following words:

Warning*: Indicates a possibility of severe personal injury or loss of life if instructions are not followed.

CONTROLS

FUEL COCK (TC-TXC)

The left-side tap (2) is a screw tap: screw the ring nut (A) to close the tap, loosen the ring nut to open the tap.

WARNING*: Be careful not to touch the hot engine while operating the fuel valve.

A fuel filter is incorporated in the fuel valves. Accumulation of dirt in the filter will restrict the flow of the fuel to the carburetor. Therefore, the fuel filter should be serviced periodically.

1

1Loosen the input plug (1) on the fuel tank and close the tap;

2Remove the fuel hose (3) from the carburetor and insert the hose in a vessel;

3Open the tap and drain the fuel out of the tank;

4Remove the fuel valve by removing the screws. Wash the fuel screen filter in cleaning solvent;

5Reassemble the fuel valve in the reverse order of removal. Open the tap and check for leaks.

SIDESTAND

A sidestand (1) is supplied with every motorcycle.

WARNING*: The stand is designed to support the weight of the MOTORCYCLE ONLY. Do not sit on the motorcycle using the stand for support as this could cause structural failure to the stand and could cause serious bodily injury.

Periodically check the side stand (see “Periodical maintenance card”); check that the springs are not damaged and that the side stand freely moves. If the side stand is noisy, lubricate the fastening pivot (A).

FUEL

Recommended fuel: premium grade unleaded fuel. (R.O.N. 98).

Note*: Do not continue operation if the engine pings or knocks. The engine will be damaged and could seize.

WARNING*: If "knocking" or "pinging" occurs, try a different brand of gasoline or higher octane grade.

WARNING*: Gasoline is extremely flammable and can be explosive under certain conditions. Always stop the engine and do not

smoke or allow flames	in the
area where the	refueled or
gasoline is stored.
WARNING*: Do not overfill	tank. After
refueling, make sure the	(1) is clo-
sed securely.

	RUNNIN IN
	Before using the motorcycle for sporting activities run in the
	engine for two hours at least to increase the life and the per-	EN
	formance of the engine.
	During the first half-hour of driving we advise keeping a low
	speed and avoiding sudden accelerations. Never open the
	throttle fully.
	Change the oil and carry out all the necessary maintenance op-
	erations. After the first half-hour of driving, lightly increase the
	rev number, but never run the engine at full throttle. Never
	keep low speeds when the high gears are inserted.
	Slowly drive the motorcycle for two hours before using it for
	sporting activities.

CHECKS WHILE RUNNING IN

-SPOKE TENSION OF WHEELS (see page 78);

-TIGHTENING OF WHEELS (see page 92-93);

-FORK PIN TIGHTENING (see page 92);

-CHAIN ADJUSTMENT (see page 51);

-STEERING BEARING PLAY (see page 40);

-HANDLEBAR TIGHTENING (see page 92);

-ENGINE GRIP TO FRAME (see page 92);

-SUCTION FITTING GRIP (see page 92);

-HEAD AND CYLINDER NUTS GRIP (see page 92);

OFTEN CHECK THE BATTERY CHARGE CONDITION (see page 86).

ENGINE START (TE-SMR)

With cold engine, as after a prolonged inactivity of the motorcycle or in presence of a low external temperature, proceed as follows:

1)set ignition key (1) in IGNITION position (the buzz that you hear when you turn the key to IGNITION is caused by the fuel pump which puts the feeding system under pressure);

2)pull the starter lever (2);

3)pull the clutch lever (3);

4)shift gear pedal (4) in neutral position then release the clutch control lever;

5)press the engine start-stop switch (5) then the start button

(6).

Put the start lever (2) in its initial position as soon as the engine is idling. When starting with an already warmed up engine DO NOT USE the starter. When a cold engine has just been started, do not increase revs, to ensure an

adequate oil warm-up and circulation.

NOTE

A safety switch is set on the clutch lever support. This switch allows you ONLY to start the engine with idle gearbox, or with the gear engaged and the clutch lever pulled.

IMPORTANT

NEVER START WITH DISCONNECTED BATTERY.
