Incase your Motorcycle is not going to be used
for a month or more, we advice the following
precautions to the taken.
Carryout required repair / adjustments on the
motorcycle.
W a s h t h e m o t or c y c l e thoroug h l y a n d
lubricate as per the maintenance chart.
Drain fuel tank, fuel line and carburettor.
Keep the fuel tap in closed position and spray
motor oil inside the fuel tan k to pre vent
rusting.
Remove spark plug. Pour in about 25ml of
clean engine oil through spark plug hole.
Close the hole and crank engine several times
and refit sparkplug.
Clean rear chain thoroughly and apply a thin
film of lub oil.
Re move ba ttery fro m the bike. Clean the
terminals free of corrosion.
Maintain electrolyte level between max or min
mark, by adding distilled water and wipe the
battery dry.
St ore the batte ry in a cool, dry and wel l
ventilated place.
Do not place the battery in direct sun light,
near open flame or where temperature is
above 40oC or below 0oC
Cover the silencer with plastic bags to prevent
moisture entry. Set the motorcycle on its
center stand.
Apply a thin film of oil on the engine barrel
fins, cylinder head fins and other painted
parts.
Apply anti rust solutions on all plated parts.
Take care not to apply this solution on rubber
or painted parts.
Store motorcycle in a clean covered area free
- of moisture and keep it covered to prevent
dust settling on it.
47
S T O R A G E
P R E C A U T I O N S
PREPARING THE MOTORCYCLE FOR
REUSE
Remove the anti rust solution from all plated
parts and clean the motorcycle well.
Inflate the tyres to the correct tyre pressure.
Ensure battery is fully charged and proper
electrolyte level is maintained.
Connect the battery.
Lubricate all control cables and pivots.
Check proper level of oil in engine.
Clean and remove the motor oil from tank
and fill tank with fresh petrol.
Clean carburettor and air filter.
Remove plastic covering from the silencer.
Remove spark plug on cylinder head and pour
in a few drops of engine oil. Crank engine a
fe w times to lubri cate cyli nder walls and
piston. Clean spark plug and refit.
Switch on ignition switch.
Start vehicle and warm up engine for a few
minutes before riding the vehicle.
NOTE :
Do not raise the engine rpm the moment it is
star ted, allow the engine to run at idling
speed.

Sufficient quantity of petrol in the fuel tank
for the journey planned.
Correct tyre pressure.
Checks after every 1500 kms of run
Tightness of all fasteners.

M I L E A G E
STOP THE DROP THAT LEAKS
Petrol leak at a rate of one drop per minute
accumulates to 5,25,600 drops a YEAR! That
is, 35 ltrs of Petrol.
Petrol leaks cause raw petrol smell. Get the
leaks arrested immediately.
USE RECOMMENDED FUELS AND OILS
ONLY
Wrong grade or adulterated petrol does not
burn fully and results in heavy smoke, high
rate of carbo n deposition in cylinder and
exhaust system and low mileage.
Wrong grade and inferior quality oils do not
lubrica te we l l. Th e moving pa r t s wear
prematurely.
Always use recommended fuels and oils only.
RIDE AT COST EFFECTIVE SPEED
Cost effective speed (in top gear) is 45 to 50
Km per hour.
Both lower and higher road speeds cause low
kilometers per litre of petrol.
PERFORM PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE AS
PER RECOMMENDATIONS
REGULAR PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
ENSURES :
Correctly inflated tyres.
Fasteners tightened to correct torques.
F r e e l y m o v i n g e n g i n e & tr a n s mi s s i o n
components.
50
C A R I N G F O R
M I L E A G E
Properly tuned and adjusted engine.
CUT OFF NEEDLESS LOW IDLING
Ten minutes of low idling wastes 70 ml. of petrol.
So cut off the engine when you know you have
to wait for one minute or more.
STOP
Revving : Ten revvings wastes 20 ml. of
petrol
Ra cing starts : Ten racing starts wastes
150 ml. of petrol.
Sud den acce l era tio n : Ten sudde n
accelerations wastes 100 ml. of petrol.
STOP BRAKE RIDING
Brake riding pushes the brake shoes / pads
to come in contact with revolving drum / disc.
To overcome the resulting fric tional load,
engine burns additional petrol.
Result : Low mileage, loss of power, faster
wear of brake shoes / pads and drum / disc.
NEVER CLUTCH RIDE
Clutch riding slips the clutch & engine drive
does not get totally transferred to the rear
wheel. Besides low mileage, clutch ridi ng
ends up with burnt friction plates of clutch,
loss of power and engine overheating.
51
C A R I N G F O R
M I L E A G E
AVOID FREQUENT BRAKING
Braking arrests the road speed. Motorcycle
mo me ntum is reduc ed. Add itional fuel is
burnt for subsequent acceleration.
For better mileage, use front and rear brakes
only when absolutely needed. Control vehicle
speed with throttle and gear like smart riders
always do.
AVOID OVER LOADING
Over loading tires the engine, wears the parts
faster and reduces mileage.
PARK YOUR VEHICLE IN SHADE WHEN
NOT IN USE
Petrol is highly volatile. It evaporates under
nor m a l a t m o s p h e r ic t e m pera t u r e . T h e
evapo r t i o n increases with t e m peratur e .
Prevent this loss by always parking your
vehicle under shade.
Too few Kms. running per day allows more
time for evaporation affecting the mileage.
