TM sport motorcycles are designed and constructed in a manner to support the stress that may be verified in normal road and competition use. Competition motorcycles are in compliance with the regulations of the categories actually in force at the most important international motorcycling federations.

The scrupulous compliance with the established inspections, maintenance and tuning of the engine and chassis part of the motorcycle, indicated in the user manual, is indispensable for correct functioning and to prevent premature wear of the parts of the motorcycle itself. Incorrect tuning of the engine or of the chassis can also jeopardise one’s own safety and that of others.

The maintenance operations established in the “Maintenance and Lubrication” table must be carried out by a specialised TM workshop at the envisioned dates, otherwise any warranty rights will be forfeited.

When you must contact your TM Dealer for spare parts, updating requests or to signal problems, indicate the model, cylinder capacity, year of manufacture and most of all the frame number and the engine serial number

.

Fuels and lubricants must be those established in the user and maintenance manual and must be used as per maintenance programme. Products of other brands can be used as long as they have the equivalent specifications.

In cases of direct and consequent damage caused by tampering or modifications to the motorcycle, no legal warranty claim can be asserted.

The use of the motorcycle in extreme conditions, for example on muddy and very wet ground, may lead to greater than average wear of components, such as transmission components or the brakes. It is therefore possible that maintenance or replacement of some parts is necessary before the limit normally envisioned by the maintenance programme.

MX AND SMX MODELS CANNOT BE USED ON PUBLIC ROADS.

The 250 and 450 models in the END, SMR and SMM versions can be used on roads only in the unvaried type-approved version (reduced). Without this power limitation (i.e. reduced) these models can only be used off-the-road, but not on public roads. The END models have been designed for off-the-road resistance competitions (Enduro) and are not suitable for Motocross.

In the models with battery and electric ignition, a two-button command is found at the side of the throttle command, one button is red, the other black. The red button (1) has two positions. Positioned inwards, it interrupts contact with the battery, removing the current from all services consumers/ancilleries. The engine will not start even with the pedal.

On these models, position it like this to switch the engine off.

It is advised to leave it like this until the engine is started-up again, otherwise the battery will go flat.

Positioned outwards, it closes the contact with the battery , enables the use of all services, including electric starter. For this reason, never leave it like this with the engine switched off, otherwise the ignition control unit, which absorbs current even when the engine is switched off, can make the battery flat. The black button (2) activates the starter. Press to startup the engine and release once running. Activate this command for a maximum of 8/10 sec. at a time and wait a few seconds before re-trying. Do not insist for more than 3/4 times: look for the probable fault. Never press this button when the engine is running.

FUEL FILLER CAP

The fuel fill cap is found on top of the tank.

Open: turn the cap in an anti-clockwise direction Close: place the cap on the inlet well and tighten it in a clockwise

direction. Position the tank’s open vent pipe (1) preventing bends or crushing

and making sure that it is inserted correctly.

- Motorcycles are sensitive to the movement of weight. When carrying luggage, fix it as near as possible to the centre of the motorcycle and distribute the weight equally between the front and rear wheel.

- Follow running in instructions.

RUNNING IN INSTRUCTIONSRUNNING IN INSTRUCTIONS

RUNNING IN INSTRUCTIONS

The surfaces of components of a new motorcycle, even if they undergo precision workings, are however less smooth than the same components in a motorcycle that have been driven for a time: this explains the necessity for running in the new engine. T o obtain an optimal bedding of the moving part s of a new engine, it must be taken to produce maximum performance gradually. For this reason, during the first 3 hours of use (1 hour for competition use) the engine must only be used up to max. 50% of its power. Moreover, the number of revs. must not exceed 7000/min. In the following 5 hours of use (1 hour for competition use) the engine can be used up to max. 75% of its power. Drive the motorcycle in different conditions (road, easy off-road tracts). Do not make long journeys without ever closing the throttle. By following these regulations, you will obtain maximum performance and longer duration of the motorcycle through time.

To use the motorcycle safely, it must be in a good shape. It is a good idea to carry out a general check-up of the motorcycle before every start-up. This check must include the following operations:

1 LEVEL OF ENGINE OIL

To ensure adequate lubrication, the level of the oil in the engine must be kept within the envisioned limits. Using the engine with the oil level below minimum leads to premature wear and successively, to damage and risks to the driver.

2 FUEL

If the motorcycle does not have a transparent tank, open the tank cap and visually check the quantity of fuel contained in the tank. Reclose the tank, making sure that the open vent pipe is not bent and so impeding the flow of air.

3 CHAIN

The drive chain must always be tensioned corretly and well lubricated.

A loose chain knocks and may escape from the sprockets.

A too tight chain wears early and may cause wear and brakage of some important transmission components.

4 TYRES

Check for any damage. Tyres with cut s or swellings must be replaced immediately.

Check the depth of the tread which must correspond to the law.

Finally, check the air pressure and take it to the values envisioned in the table, if necessary. Worn tread and unsuitable air pressure worsen driving of the motorcycle and may cause loss of control and serious accidents.

5 BRAKES

Verify correct working. Check the level of brake fluid. The reservoir on the pumps are dimensioned in a way that in case of normally worn brake pads the fluid does not need to be topped-up. If the level of brake fluid falls below the minimum level, this indicates a leak in the brake system or complete consumption of the brake pads. Have the brake system checked by a specialised TM workshop, given that in this case the brakes could fail.

The state of the brake’s flexible pipes and the thickness of the pads

must also be checked. Check the free play and the smoothness of the front brake lever and the rear brake pedal.

6 FLEXIBLE CABLE COMMANDS

Check the adjustment and correct working of all flexible cable commands .

7 COOLANT

Check the level of coolant with cold engine. Top-up with the liquid stated in the table, if necessary.

8 ELECTRICAL PLANT

With the engine running, check for the front headlight, the front and rear position lights, the rear stopping light, the direction indicator lights, the control lights and the horn.

9 LUGGAGE

Check that any luggage is well fixed.

IF THE ENGINE IS “FLOODED”IF THE ENGINE IS “FLOODED”

IF THE ENGINE IS “FLOODED”

In the event of a fall, a certain amount of fuel can flow out of the caburetor and enter the head, “flooding” the engine. To start the engine, pull the “hot start” knob or turn the “hot start” lever (1). WITHOUT opening the throttle push hardly the kickstart pedal DOWN TO THE BOTTOM once or twice or operate the electric starter. On models with a manual decompressor, to eliminate the excess fuel from the engine, pull the manual decompressor lever and operate the kickstart pedal 5 -10 times or the electric starter button respectively twice for 5 seconds. Start the engine as previously described. If necessary, remove the spark plug and dry it.

WARNING: The carburetor has an accelerator pump. Every time that you open the throttle,with the engine running or switched off, a quantity of fuel is sprayed into the inlet tract. If this operation is carried out with the engine switched off, it causes flooding of the engine, with the consequent starting difficulties and a dangerous distribution of fuel. NEVER TURN THE THROTTLE WHEN THE ENGINE IS NOT RUNNING IF NOT STRICTLY NECESSARY . IN ANY CASE DO IT ONL Y ONCE AND NEVER REPEATEDL Y!

1st gear, which should be selected, is the pulling away and ascent gear. If the circumstances permit (speed limits, traffic, slopes), to increase speed, insert higher gears. To do this, close the throttle, pull the clutch lever at the same time, insert the successive gear, release the clutch and accelerate up to 1/2 turn of the throttle. Then insert the following gear and repeat this operation until the desired speed is reached and however, permitted by the limits in force. Gradual opening of the accelerator favours careful driving and limits consumption. Learn the correct opening of the throttle on the basis of the pace at which you want the motorcycle to move. To reduce speed, the throttle must be closed. Brake and shift down the gears, pulling the clutch lever and inserting a lower gear. Release the clutch slowly and accelerate or change gear again . Always increase or change down the gears one at a time!

INDICATION:

All TM models do not have a radiator cooling fan and the radiator dimensions have been studied to optimise compactness and weight. The cooling system is sufficient for touristic or sports use. If you want to use an additional cooling fan contact a TM authorised dealer.

- TM MODELS CAN BE RE-STARTED AT ANY TIME BY KICK OR WITH THE ELECTRIC STARTER. SWITCH THE ENGINE OFF WHEN YOU INTEND TO KEEP THE MOTORCYCLE AT A ST ANDSTILL FOR MORE THAN 2 MINUTES.

- AFTER EVERY FALL, THE MOTORCYCLE MUST BE CONTROLLED IN THE SAME WA Y AS BEFORE EVER Y ST ART -UP .

- A DEFORMED HANDLEBAR MUST ALWAYS BE REPLACED. NEVER STRAIGHTEN THE HANDLEBAR AS IT COULD LOOSE ITS STRENGTH.

WARNING

- USE OF THE ENGINE AT A HIGH NUMBER OF REVS WHEN IT IS COLD, NEGATIVEL Y AFFECTS THE DURA TION OF THE ENGINE. BEFORE USING THE MOTORCYCLE A T FULL WORKING CONDITIONS, IT IS BETTER TO WARM IT ADEQUATELY BY DRIVING AT AN AVERAGE SPEED. THE ENGINE HAS REACHED ITS WORKING TEMPERA TURE AS SOON AS THE RADIATORS BECOME HOT .

- NEVER SHIFT DOWN A GEAR WITHOUT HA VING FIRST SLOWED DOWN. THE ENGINE WOULD BE TAKEN TO AN EXCESSIVE NUMBER OF REVS AND THE VAL VES AND OTHER ENGINE COMPONENTS WOULD BE DAMAGED. THE REAR WHEEL COULD ALSO LOCK, LEADING TO LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE.

- IF THERE ARE ABNORMAL VIBRA TIONS DURING FUNCTIONING , CHECK THA T THE SCREW FASTENERS ARE TIGHTENED WELL.

BRAKINGBRAKING

BRAKING

Close the throttle and brake at the same time progressively with the front and rear brakes. Insert a lower gear depending on speed. On dusty, wet or slippery surfaces, operate the brakes and change down the gears gently without locking the wheels. Locking the wheels leads to swerving or a fall. When following long descending roads, make use of the engine’s braking effect. To do this, insert the 1st or 2nd gear, without however increasing the revs. excessively. In this way you will have to brake much less and the brakes will not overheat.

- IN CASE OF RAIN, AFTER WASHING THE MOTORCYCLE, AFTER IMMERSION IN WATER OR TRAVELLING OVER WET GROUND, THE BRAKING ACTION COULD BE DELAYED BECAUSE OF WET OR DIRTY BRAKE DISCS.THE BRAKES MUST THEREFORE BE OPERATED REPEATEDLY UNTIL THE DISCS ARE DR Y AND CLEAN.

- THE BRAKING ACTION CAN ALSO BE DELA YED WHEN TRA VELLING ON DIRTY ROADS OR ROADS COVERED WITH SAL T . THE BRAKES MUST BE OPERATED UNTIL THE DISCS ARE CLEAN.

- WHEN THE BRAKE DISCS ARE DIRTY THERE IS GREATER WEAR OF THE PADS AND THE BRAKE DISCS THEMSEL VES.

- AFTER USING THE BRAKES, THE DISC, THE PADS, THE CALIPERS AND THE BRAKE FLUID HEAT UP. THE HOTTER THESE PARTS, THE LESS THE BRAKING EFFECT. IN CASE OF OVERHEATING THE ENTIRE BRAKING SYSTEM MA Y NOT WORK.

- IF THE FORCE A T THE FRONT BRAKE LEVER OR BRAKE PEDAL IS MINIMAL, THERE COULD BE A F AUL T IN THE BRAKING SYSTEM. I N THIS CASE IT IS A GOOD IDEA TO HA VE THE MOTORCYCLE CHECKED BY AN AUTHORISED TM DEALER.

Every 5 hours of use in competitions loosen the vent screws (1) by a few turns, so allowing the release of any air-pressure from inside the fork. Instead of a screw, Marzocchi fork features a tyre valve (3), which is protected by a rubber bulb (4). Remove the rubber bulb and press gently the valve stem. Before operating on the screws or on the valve, lift the motorcycle onto the stand in a way that the front wheel does not touch the ground. If the motorcycle is used mainly on roads, it is sufficient only to carry out this operation during periodical maintenance.

WARNING

VERY HIGH PRESSURE INSIDE THE FORK CAN CAUSE THE FORK TO LEAK. IF YOUR FORK PRESENTS A LEAK, LOOSEN THE VENT SCREWS BEFORE HA VING THE SEALING ELEMENTS REPLACED.

THE BASIS OF THE PILOT’S WEIGHTTHE BASIS OF THE PILOT’S WEIGHT

THE BASIS OF THE PILOT’S WEIGHT

To obtain optimal driving features of the motorcycle and to prevent damage to the fork, rear shock, rear swing arm and frame, it is necessary that the basic calibration of the suspension is adapted to your body weight. In the delivery status, the off-road TM motorcycles are calibrated on a pilot weight (with complete protective clothing) of 70 – 80 kg. If your weight is not within these values, you must adequately adapt the basic calibration of the suspensions. Minor weight changes can be compensated by varying the spring pre-load. For greater variations, suitable springs rates must be used.

The static lowering should be35 mm. Variations of more than 2 mm can notably influence driving of the motorcycle. Procedure:

- Position the motorcycle on a stand so that the rear wheel does not touch the ground.

- Measure the distance between the rear wheel axle and a fixed point (e.g.. a mark on the side panel) paying attention that the straight line that joins the axle and the fixed point is as perpendicular as possible to the ground and make note of the value as A.

- Rest the motorcycle back on the ground.

- Ask a helper to hold the motorcycle in a vertical position.

- Measure the distance between the rear wheel axle and the fixed point again. Make note of this measurement as B.

- The static lowering is the difference between measurement A and B.

EXAMPLE:

Motorcycle on stand (measurement A)………………........... 600 m m

Motorcycle on the ground, not loaded (measurement B) .. -5 65 m m

Static lowering ……………………………................................. 35 mm

If thestatic lowering is smaller, the rear shock spring pre-load must be decreased. If the static lowering is greater, the spring pre-load must be increased. See variation of rear shock spring pre-load chapter.

RUNNING ORDERRUNNING ORDER

RUNNING ORDER

- Now, with the help of a person who holds the motorcycle, sit on the motorcycle wearing all protective clothing (with feet on the footrests) and rock up and down a few times to normalise the set-up of the rear suspension.

- A third person must then measure the distance between the same points, with the motorcycle loaded and note this measurement as C.

- Lowering in running order is the difference between measurements A and C.

EXAMPLE:

Motorcycle on stand (measurement A). …………...…….... 600 mm

Motorcycle on the ground loaded with the pilot’s weight

(measurement C) ......................................................................... - 510 mm

Lowering in running order................ …………………........... 90 mm

Lowering in running order should be 90÷105 mm. If lowering in running order is less than 90 mm, the spring is too hard (spring rate too high). If the lowering exceeds 105 mm, the spring is too soft (spring rate too low). The spring rate is indicated on the outside of the spring wire. After mounting a different spring,static lowering must be adjusted again to 35 mm (± 2 mm). According to our experience, the dampening grade in compression can remain unvaried. With a softer spring, the dampening grade in rebound can be reduced by some clicks, with an harder spring, increased by some clicks.

For several reasons, the exact lowering in running order of the telescopic fork can not be established. Small variations in body weight can be compensated, as for the rear shock, through the spring pre-load. If your telescopic fork, however, lowers completely, it is necessary to use an higher rate fork spring to prevent damage to the telescopic fork and frame.

The pre-loading of the spring can be varied by turning the adjustment ring (5). With this aim, it is advised to disassemble the rear shock and clean it well. INDICATION:

- Before varying the spring pre-load you should make note of te basic adjustment - for example how many thread turns are visible above the adjustment ring nut.

- By 1 turn of the adjustment ring 5) the spring pre-load varies by 1.5 mm.

Loosen the lock ring nut (6) and turn the adjustment ring nut. By turning it anti-clockwise (viewed from top) the pre-load decreases, by turning it clockwise the pre-load increases. After the adjustment, tighten the lock ring nut (6).

REAR SUSPENSION MECHANICAL LINKAGEREAR SUSPENSION MECHANICAL LINKAGE

REAR SUSPENSION MECHANICAL LINKAGE

The rear suspension of all TM motorcycles has a link-rod and rocker mechanism that progressively changes the lever relationship between the wheel and the rear shock. This mechanism works on bearings, which must be cleaned and greased at the envisioned intervals to maintain the working of the suspension efficient. When cleaning the motorcycle with high pressure cleaning devices, do not aim the jet completely onto the suspension mechanical linkage.

ADJUSTMENT OF CHAIN TENSION (SMM)

Loosen both the locking screws(7) of the rear eccentric hub in a way that the hub itself can turn around its axis. Using the relevant TM tool, code F50806 (8), turn the hub until correct chain tension is reached. Tighten the two locking screws to 30 Nm. Since the movement is an eccentric system, alignment of the rear wheel is unvaried and no further adjustment is required. At the same time, by turning the hub a slight variation in the height of the rear wheel axle may be verified and consequently of the rear part of the motorcycle. It is possible to compensate this, by varying the projection of the fork legs from the upper clamp. For example, if the motorcycle, by effect of chain adjustment, has lifted by 5mm. at the rear, it is advised to decrease the projection of the fork rods by about 5mm. to also raise the front and restore the original levelling of the motorcycle. It is advised to use the TM tool, code F50806, pairing with two M8 screws and two nuts to turn the hub inserting the two screws into the two holes in the hub itself.

CHAIN MAINTENANCECHAIN MAINTENANCE

CHAIN MAINTENANCE

Chain duration depends most of all on maintenance. Chains without O-rings must be regularly cleaned with petroleum and then immersed in warm chain oil or treated with chain spray. Maintenance of chains with O-rings is reduced to a minimum. The best cleaning method is using lots of water. Never use brushes or solvents to clean the chain. When the chain is dry, use a chain spray that is especially suitable for chains with O-rings.

DO NOT ALLOW THE LUBRICANT TO REACH THE REAR TYRE OR THE BRAKE DISC, OTHERWISE ADHERENCE TO THE GROUND OF THE REAR WHEEL AND REAR BRAKE ACTION COULD BE NOT ABLY REDUCED AND IT COULD BE EASY TO LOOSE CONTROL OF THE MOTORCYCLE.

WARNING

ON MOUNTING THE CHAIN SPLIT LINK, THE CLOSED P ART MUST BE IN THE DIRECTION OF MOVEMENT .

Always check both engine and rear wheel sprockets and drive slider for wear. If necessary, replace these parts.

CHAIN WEARCHAIN WEAR

CHAIN WEAR

To check chain wear follow carefully the instructions given below : put the gear into neutral, pull the upper part of the chain in an upward direction with a force of 10 - 15 kilogrammes (see figure). Now, measure the distance of 18 links on the lower part of the chain. If the distance exceeds 272 mm it is advised to replace the chain. The chains are not always worn in a even way. For this reason the measurement must be taken in different points on the chain.

INDICATION:

When a new chain is mounted, also replace the sprockets. A new chain wears more quickly on old and worn sprockets.

WARNING

WHEN THE CHAIN SPROCKETS ARE REPLACED, IT IS ADVISED TO MOUNT NEW SELF-LOCKING NUTS AND T O TIGHTEN WITH CROSS SEQUENCE. TIGHTENING TORQUE AT NUTS 35 NM.

CALIPERS :

The mounting system of the calipers of these models is “floating”, i.e they are not rigidly joined to their support. The lateral compensation always allows the pads to work in the best way on the discs. The brake caliper fastening screws must be assembled using Loctite 243 and tightened at 25 Nm. The front calipers of the SMR/SMM/SMX models are an exception as they are fixed-type.

PADS:

The minimum thickness of the friction material cannot go under the limit of 1mm. In case of replacement, it is advised always to use TM original spare parts for your motorcycle.

BRAKE DISCS:

With wear the thickness of the brake disc is reduced in the contact area of the pads (1). In the thinnest point (A) the brake disc may present max. wear of 0.4 mm with respect to original thickness. The original thickness can be measured in point (B) outside of the contact area. Check wear in different points.

- BRAKE DISCS WITH WEAR EXCEEDING 0.4 MM ARE A RISK FOR SAFETY . WHEN THE LIMIT OF WEAR HAS BEEN REACHED, HAVE THE BRAKE DISCS REPLACED IMMEDIATELY.

BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIRS:

The front and rear brake liquid reservoirs are dimensioned in a way that topping-up is not necessary even if the brake pads are worn. In fact, when the pads are worn, the fluid in the hoses tends to occupy the space left by the small pistons, which have moved so that the pads always lay on the disc. If the level of brake fluid falls below the minimum value, it indicates that there is a leak in the braking system or brake pad wear is beyond accepted limits.

BRAKE FLUID:

The braking system is filled by TM with top-quality DOT 4 brake fluid. We recommend that top-ups and complete replacement are carried out using the same type of fluid (DOT 4).

HAVE THE BRAKE FLUID REPLACED AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR. IF YOU W ASH THE MOTORCYCLE FREQUENTL Y , IT SHOULD BE REPLACED MORE OFTEN . THE BRAKE FLUID SOAKS WA TER. IN OLD FLUID THEREFORE IT IS POSSIBLE THAT STEAM BUBBLES FORM EVEN AT LOW TEMPERATURES AND THE BRAKING SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK CORRECTL Y .

CHECK SPOKE TENSIONCHECK SPOKE TENSION

CHECK SPOKE TENSION

Correct tension of the spokes is very important for the stability of the wheel and therefore safety on the road. An insufficiently taught spoke leads to unbalancing of the wheel and in brief time loosening of other spokes. Regularly check the tension of the spokes, particularly on new motorcycles. Briefly hit every spoke with the end of a screwdriver (see photo): the spoke should produce a clear sound. Hollow sounds mean loose spokes. In this case you must have the spokes adjusted in a specialised workshop. The wheel must also be centred.

- IF YOU CONTINUE TRAVELLING WITH INSUFFICIENTL Y TIGHT SPOKES, THEY MA Y TEAR CAUSING PROBLEMS OF INST ABILITY.

- EXCESSIVELY TIGHT SPOKES MA Y TEAR DUE TO LOCAL OVERLOADING.

COOLINGCOOLING

COOLING

The water pump (1) housed in the engine induces forced circulation of the coolant liquid. There is no thermostat in the system, therefore, when the engine is cold, it is important to moderate the number of revs. of the engine and speed. Proceed for at least 5 minutes at half throttle and at reduced pace to allow the engine to reach an adequate working temperature. Cooling takes place thanks to the passage of air through the fins of the radiator, the lower the speed, the less the cooling effect. Dirty radiator fins also decrease the cooling effect. The pressure caused by the high liquid temperature is adjusted by a valve on the radiator cap (2); it is possible to reach temperatures of 120°C without problems.

- CHECK THE LEVEL OF THE COOLANT LIQUID WHEN THE ENGINE IS COLD. IF YOU MUST REMOVE THE RADIA TOR CAP WHEN THE ENGINE IS HOT, COVER IT WITH A CLOTH AND OPEN SLOWLY TO RELEASE THE PRESSURE. ATTENTION, BURNS HAZARD!

- DO NOT DISCONNECT THE RADIATOR HOSES WHEN THE ENGINE IS HOT . THE COOLANT LIQUID AND THE HOT STEAM THA T ESCAPE, MAY CAUSE SERIOUS BURNS.

- IF YOU ARE BURNED, PUT THE INTERESTED PART UNDER COLD RUNNING WATER.

- THE COOLANT IS TOXIC! THEREFORE PRESERVE IT OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.

- IF YOU SWALLOW COOLANT, SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE IMMEDIATELY.

- IF THE COOLANT HITS THE EYES, RINSE IMMEDITAELY WITH COLD WA TER AND SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE.

The coolant liquid is a mixture of antifreeze at 40% and water at 60%.The antifreeze protection limit must however be at least -25°C. This mixture offers protection against freezing as well as a good protection against corrosion and therefore should not be replaced by pure water.

WARNING

- AFTER THE COOLANT LIQUID HAS BEEN EMPTIED, WHEN RE-FILLING IT IS NECEESARY T O BLEED THE COOLING SYSTEM (SEE NEXT P AGE).

- ALWA YS USE GOOD QUALITY PRODUCTS T O PREVENT CORROSION OR FOAM.

- IN EXTREME WEATHER CONDITIONS OR IN STOP-AND-GO TRAFFIC, OVERHEATING MAY OCCUR. TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM, AN ELECTROVENTILAT OR KIT IS A V AILABLE FOR ALL MODELS WITH ELECTRIC STAR TER (ASK A T YOUR TM AUTHORISED DEALER).

TERIALTERIAL

TERIAL

The aluminium silencers are filled with acoustic insulating material (fibreglass) to limit motorcycle noise. Because of high temperatures reached by the exhaust gases, the fibreglass tends to burn, leading to a decrease in the effect of noise absorbtion and also causing a decrease in power. To replace the fibreglass, disassemble the silencer from the motorcycle frame, remove the rivets that support the front cap (1) and slide the wool to be replaced out. In END/SMM/SMR models, the fibreglass cartridge must be cut to a length of about 30 cm (weight 300 grammes) while in the other models it is inserted whole. Push it down well, close the cover and fix the rivets.

WHEN THE ENGINE IS RUNNING THE EXHAUST SYSTEM BECOMES VERY HOT. ONLY START TO WORK ON THE EXHAUST SYSTEM WHEN IT HAS COOLED DOWN, TO PREVENT BURNS.

To ease mounting of the silencer, grease the ends of the pipes. Also fix the retaining spring between the pipe and the silencer. When the engine is started-up, it generates a white smoke from the previously greased parts. This is caused by the hight temperatures that melt the grease.

A dirty air filter jeopardises the filtering of air, reducing engine power and increasing fuel consumption. In some cases, the dust can even reach the engine causing derious damage. For this reason, maintenance of the filter should be carried out regularly.

Remove the saddle to access the filter. To remove the filter, unscrew the finger screw positioned at the centre of the filter and carefully slide it the filter out of its case.

WARNING

- DO NOT CLEAN THE FOAM FILTER WITH FUEL OR KEROSENE, WHICH CAN CORRODE IT . FOR CORRECT MAINTENANCE OF THE FOAM FIL TER, USE THE RELEVANT PRODUCTS ON THE MARKET FOR CLEANING AND LUBRICA TION.

- NEVER START-UP THE MOTORCYCLE WITHOUT THE AIR FILTER. THE INFILTRA TION OF DUST AND DIR T CAN CAUSE DAMAGE AND INCREASE WEAR.

Wash the filter carefully using a special liquid detergent and dry well: squeeze the filter slightly but do not wring it. Also clean the filter case and check that the rubber manifold that connects the carburetor to the filter case is integral and positioned correctly. Remount the air filter, positioning it correctly on the rest surface, taking care that edges of the filter are not raised or not adherent with the rest surface. Rescrew the finger screw and tighten it adequately.

THROTTLE CABLE COMMAND ADJUSTMENT

The throttle command should always have a free play of 3-5 mm. Moreover, when the engine is idling, the revs must not vary when steering as far as possible to the left and to the right. To adjust the play, remove the saddle and the tank with the shrouds. Push the protection hood backwards (3). Loosen the counter-nut (4) and unscrew or screw the adjustment device (5). By screwing, the free play increases. By unscrewing, the free play decreases. Tighten the counter-nut and control the smoothness of the the throttle command handlebar grip. Remount the tank and saddle. When the engine is not running, do not open and close the throttle grip more than 1-2 times: every time it is opened it activates the accelerator pump. This could flood the engine.

IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENTIDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT

IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT

(A) (A)

(A)

The adjustment of the idle speed greatly influences the engine start, this means that an engine with the idle speed correctly adjusted will be easier to start than an engine with an incorrect idle speed. The idle speed is adjusted using the adjustment knob (1) and the mixture adjustment screw (2). The adjustment knob is used to adjust the basic position of the throttle valve. The mixture adjustment screw is used to adjust the mixture for the idle speed, which flows through the idle speed system up to the engine. By turning in a clockwise direction, the quantity of fuel decreases (lean mixture), by turning in an anticlockwise direction, the quantity of fuel increases (rich mixture).

TO SET IDLE SPEED FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY, PROCEED AS FOLLOWS:

1 Screw the mixture adjustment screw (2) until it stops, without force,

then unscrew it untill you obtain the basic adjustment envisioned by

TM (see Engine Technical Data). 2 Warm-up the engine 3 Use the adjustment knob (1) to adjust the number of revs. of the

normal idle speed (1600 - 1800/min). 4 Slowly turn the mixture adjustment screw (2) in a clockwise direction

until the number of revs of the idle speed begins to decrease. Keep

this position in mind and now turn the mixture adjustment screw

slowly in an anticlockwise direction until the number of revs of the

idle speed begins to decrease again. Set the point between these

two positions in which the number of idle speed revs is highest. If

there is a notable increase in the number of revs., reduce the number

of revs to the normal level using the adjustment knob (1) and repeat

the procedure from point 4. Anyone using the motorcycle for pure racing

will set a leaner mixture of about 1/4 of a turn (in a clockwise direction) with

respect to the ideal value, because the engine will become hotter than

normal.

NOTE: If the described methods are followed and satisfying results

are not obtained, the cause could be a Pilot jet with unsuitable

dimensions.

a) If the mix adjustment screw is screwed right down without variation

of the number of revs of the idle speed, a smaller Pilot jet must be

installed.

b) If the engine switches off with the mix adjustment screw still open

by two turns, a larger Pilot jet must be installed. Obviously, after the

jet has been replaced, adjustment must be carried out again from

the beginning. 5 Now, adjust the number of revs. of the idle speed desired using the

adjustment knob. 6 In presence of large variations of external temperature and altitude,

the idle speed must be set again.

To adjust the idle speed mixture screw, a very short screwdriver may be required. Notches may be useful on the handgrip.

Disassemble the carburetor and remove the float bowl. Turn the carburetor upside-down and keep it inclined so that the float rests on the needle valve but does not compress the spring with its weight. In this position, use a gauge to measure the distance between the apex of the float body and the float bowl surface on the carburetor body (see image). Refer to the technical data for the correct value for your motorcycle. If necessary, adjust the height by slightly bending the float adjustment plate (4). If possible, also check the tightness and the state of wear of the needle valve cone: if in doubt replace the valve and brass seat.

OIL CIRCUITOIL CIRCUIT

OIL CIRCUIT

The delivery pump (3) sucks the oil through the net filter (4) from the sump. The oil is delivered pressurised through a pipe (5) to the filter cartridge where it is purified from all particles and delivered partly to the crankshaft and partly to the distribution and gearbox. The oil delivered to the crankshaft enters through a co-axial pipe into the shaft and finally lubricating the big end bearing (6). The oil delivered to the distribution and gears is made to ascend to the top of the crankcases and, before entering the cylinder, it divides again. A part is channeled towards the gearbox, of which it lubricates, through a distributor (7), the gear toothing. Another part passes through a spray nozzle towards the small end (8) for lubrication of the piston pin. Finally, another part is channeld along the cylinder and through a relevant hole and arrives at the camshafts bearings and to the contact area between the cam lobes and valve lifters (9-10). All pressurised oil delivered to the main parts of the engine is returned by fall and depression to the point in which the drainage pump is found (11) which collects the oil and send it back to the oil sump. Note that the oil sump is separate from the rotating parts of the engine (dry sump) but integrated in the casting of the crankcases. The oil circulation is made only by channels machined inside the engine, without using external hoses.

CLEANING

Clean the motorcycle regularly in a way to maintain the surface of the plastic parts in good condition. To do this, it is advised to use hot water with a detergent and sponge. Most of the dirt can be removed using weak water jets.

WARNING

NEVER CLEAN THE MOTORCYCLE WITH HIGH PRESSURE CLEANING DEVICES OR WITH STRONG JETS OF WA TER! BECAUSE OF THE HIGH PRESSURE THE WA TER COULD REACH THE ELECTRICAL P ARTS, CONNECTORS, FLEXIBLE CABLE COMMANDS, BEARINGS, THE CARBURETOR ETC... AND CAUSE F AUL TS OR PREMA TURE BREAKAGE OF THESE P ARTS.

- Before washing, close the exhaust pipe rear end to prevent water from entering.

- Normal soaps, found on the market, should be used to clean the motorcycle. Particularly dirty parts should be cleaned using a brush.

- After having rinsed the motorcycle well, using a weak jet of water, dry using compressed air and a cloth. Empty the carburetor bowl. Immediately after, make a brief journey until the engine has reached the normal working temperature and at this point activate the brakes. Because of the heat, the water that is left in the unreachable points and on the brakes will evaporate.

- After the motorcycle has cooled down, oil and grease all motion parts and bearings. Treat the chain with an appropriate spray. Also oil the fuel tap.

- To prevent faults in the electric system, treat the emergency shutdown button, the engine stop button, the light switch and the connectors with contact spray.

If the motorcycle is not to be used for a long time, take the following measures:

- Clean the motorcycle well (see CLEANING chapter)

- Change the engine oil and oil filter cartridge, clean the net filter (old oil contains dangerous impurities).

- Check the antifreeze and the quantity of the coolant.

- Warm the engine up again, close the fuel tap and wait until the engine stops. Successively open the carburetor bowl empty screw to empty the remaining fuel.

- Disassemble the spark plug and pour into the plug hole 5 cc of oil. Activate the kickstart pedal 10 times to distribute the engine oil onto the walls of the cylinder and then remount the spark plug.

- Bring the piston in compression to induce valve closure

- Empty the fuel tank, collecting the fuel in an appropriate container.

- Adjust tyre pressure.

- Grease bearings or command lever supports, footrests, etc. and also the chain. Disassemble the battery and charge it (see BATTERY chapter). Store it disassembled from the motorcycle.

- The place of storage should be dry and not subject to large temperature changes.

- Cover the motorcycle with a sheet or cover that allows air to pass. Do not use materials that do not allow the passage of air, as humidity would not be able to escape and could cause oxidation.

WARNING

IT IS NOT ADVISED TO ST ART THE ENGINE FOR SHOR T TIMES. THE ENGINE WOULD NOT HEA T UP SUFFICIENTL Y , AND THEREFORE THE STEAM CREATED DURING THE COMBUSTION PROCESS WOULD CONDENSE CAUSING THE OXIDA TION OF THE EXHAUST V ALVES.

START -UP AFTER SEASONAL PAUSE

- Mount the charged battery (pay attention to polarity)

- Fill the tank with new fuel

- Control the motorcycle as before any start-up (see “Instructions for use” chapter) - Make a short inspection trip.

WARNING: Before storing the motorcycle for the season, check functioning and wear of all components. If maintenance operations, repairs or modifications are necessary, it is a good idea to have them carried out during the winter time (less busy workshops). In this way it is possible to avoid long waits in the workshop at the beginning of the spring season.
