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.

The main work of repair or maintenance 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” is part and parcel of the motorcycle, hence, this had 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 NOTICES

1)The TC and TXCi models are guaranteed COMPETITION motorcycles exempt from functional defects, the suggested maintenance table for competition use is shown on Appendix A.

2)TE vehicles are STREET LEGAL motorcycles (with LIMITED POWER ENGINE); they are guaranteed exempt from functional defects and covered with legal guarantee, if the STANDARD CONFIGURATION is maintained and the suggested maintenance table, shown on Appendix A is observed.

If TE vehicles are transformed in COMPETITION MOTORCYCLES (with FULL POWER ENGINE), the suggested maintenance table for competition use is shown on Appendix A.

RUNNING IN

Before using the motorcycle for sporting activities run in the engine for two hours at least to increase the life and the performance 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 operations. 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 DURING RUNNING

-SPOKE TENSION OF WHEELS;

-TIGHTENING OF WHEELS;

ENGINE START (TC)

While the engine is cold, i.e., after the motorcycle has not been used for a while or in low ambient temperatures, operate in the following manner:

1)pull the clutch lever (1);

2)pull the starter lever (2);

3)shift gear pedal (3) to neutral position then release the clutch control level;

4)COMPLETELY lower the pedal (4) until the engine starts.Bring the starter lever (2) back to its original position as soon as the motor can idle. 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.

IMPORTANT NOTE IN CASE OF COLD STARTS AT

LOW TEMPERATURES

It is recommended to briefly warm-up the engine at idle until, after having disengaged the starter, there is a normal response from the engine when opening the throttle.

In this way the oil can reach all the surfaces needing lubrication and the coolant will reach the necessary temperature for correct engine function. Avoid overheating the engine.

IMPORTANT

Never accelerate the engine after a cold start.

WARNING*: Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas. Never run the engine in a closed garage or in a confined area.

Kick start pedal

WARNING*: This high performance motorcycle can some times «kick back» strongly when you are starting it.

Do not attempt to start this motorcycle unless you are wearing high top heavy sided riding boots. You could seriously hurt you leg if the kickstarter kicked back and your foot slipped.
