Riding your Motorcycle

Starting a cold engine :

1. Turn the fuel petcock to the ON position.

2. Set the sidestand up (the sidestand is equipped with a switch which prevents the engine from starting when it is down)

3. Turn the ignition key to the on posi tion, first position to the right. (clockwise)

4. Using the gearshift lever, place the transmission in neutral.

5. Engage the choke and slightly open the throttle.

6. To start the motor push the engine start button, once the engine is started remove your finger from the button. The engine may also be started by using the kick starter lever. Follow the same process as above but ins tead of pushing the engine start button, unfold the kick starter lever and push down on it with your foot. Once the engine starts return the kickstarter lever to its ori ginal position.

7. Allow the engine to warm up for several minutes in neutral before shifting into 1st gear and riding off.

Follow the above instructions but omit steps 5 and 7. Accelerate the engine slightly after it starts.

Starting warm engine :

Shifting gears

The gear shift lever positions are shown on page 8. To find neutral, push down on the pedal until it is in first gear (you will feel a resistance to further movement). Lift up slightly on the pedal.

1. Close the throttle and pull in the clutch lever.

2. Step on the gear shift lever and place the transmission into firs gear.

3. Smoothly open the throttle and slowly release the clutch lever. Once you have reached the proper speed, shift into the next higher gear.

Stopping:

Using the ignition key stop the engine, remove the key from the main switch and place the petcock in the off position.

You must know these functions completely prior to operating your motorcycle for the first time.

SAFTEY

We recommend that you always wear an approved helmet when you ride your

motorcycle.

For optimum safety and reliability you have to keep your motorcycle in good repair with a rigorous maintenance schedule.

Gasoline is inflammable, fill the fuel tank when the engine is not running. Exhaust gases are toxic, do not run the engine in a closed space. Always park the motorcycle on a flat hard surface. Do not park the motorcycle

on a soft surface or on a slope. Check the stability before leaving your motor cycle.

You should inspect the following items daily, before you ride your motorcycle:

- Tires: :Check for wear and pressure.

- Engine oil: : Level. (see the maintenance and adjustment chapter)

- Fuel: : Make sure there are no leaks.

- Primary drive chain: : Tightness. (see the maintenance and adjustment chapter)

- Steering: : Make sure that it turns freely.

- Brakes: : Check for proper operation, make sure that there is

plenty of brake fluid and that the pads are serviceable.

(see the maintenance and adjustment chapter)

- Throttle control: : Check for proper operation, the throttle should turn freely and not stick. (see the maintenance and adjust ment chapter)

- Clutch: : Check for proper operation. (see the maintenance and adjustment chapter)

- Sidestand: : Check the operation of the safety switch, the engine should not start when the sidestand is down and should run when it is up.

- Electrical System: : Check the operation of the horn, the lights and the star

ting system. Fasteners (bolts, nuts, screws): Inspect all bolts, nuts and screws, make sure they are properly tightened.

If during this inspection you find a defect, refer to the Maintenance and Adjustment chapter which follows, or contact your authorized

Sherco dealer.

CLEARING AND STORAGE

SHERCO recommends that you clean your new SHERCO 125 on a regular basis in

order to maintain its appearance and prolong its life.

1. Cover the exhaust outlet and the air filter intake with an appropriate cover. (a piece of plastic with a rubber band will work)

2. To clean the engine, apply a good quality degreaser, scrub with a brush and then rinse the engine with a water hose. MOTO WASH ref.768

3. Wash the motorcycle first with a garden hose.

3. Wash the rest of the vehicle with hot soapy water.

4. Rinse with water.

5. Dry with a chamois or a clean lint free cloth.

6. Dry the chain and lubricate it with chain lubricant.

SPRAY CHAIN ref. 704/702

7. Once you are finished cleaning the bike remove the covers from the intake and the

exhaust. Start the engine and let it idle a few minutes.

Avoid the use of high pressure washers, the water can enter the bearings,

the steering housing, etc. and cause severe damage.

Use a detergent specifically designed to wash automobiles or motorcycles,

this will eliminate the possibility of damage to the tires.

Before storing the vehicle for a prolonged period (more than two months), it is

recommended that you follow these instructions:

1. Wash the motorcycle as described above.

2. Drain the fuel tank and the carburetor.

3. Remove the spark plug and place some drops of engine oil in the cylinder. Replace the spark plug and turn the engine over several times with the kick star

ter with the ignition switch in the off position, this will cover the internal sur

faces of the cylinder with oil. SPRAY PROTECTOR3 ref. 731

4. Lubricate all of the pivot points and cables. SPRAY PROTECTOR3 ref. 731

5. Lift the motorcycle in order that the wheels leave the ground.

6. Cover the exhaust exit with a piece of plastic to keep moisture from entering the engine.

7. Place a thin coating of engine oil on all non painted metallic surfaces. SPRAY PROTECTOR3 ref. 731

8. Cover the motorcycle with an appropriate cover.

Tires

Tire pressure:

1. Check the tire pressure on a regu ar basis with an accurate tire pres sure gauge.

2. The tire pressure must comply with the chart shown below.

Tire wear and damage:

1. Check the tread depth on a regu lar basis with a tread depth gauge.

2. If the tread depth is less than 2 mm it is mandatory that the tire be replaced.

3. Check the tires to make sure that they do not have any cuts or bulges.

4. If there is a lot of damage to the tires it is mandatory that you replace them.
