IMPORTANT INFORMATION

ALL REPLACEMENT PARTS

1. We recommend to use Yamaha genuine parts for all replacements. Use oil and/or grease recommended by Yamaha for assembly and adjustment.

GASKETS, OIL SEALS, AND O-RINGS

1.  All gaskets, seals, and O-rings should be replaced when an engine is overhauled. All gasket surfaces, oil seal lips, and O-rings must be cleaned.

2.  Properly oil all mating parts and bearings during reassembly. Apply grease to the oil seal lips.

LOCK WASHERS/PLATES AND COTTER PINS

1. All lock washers/plates (1) and cotter pins must be replaced when they are removed. Lock tab(s) should be bent along the bolt or nut flat(s) after the bolt or nut has been properly tightened.

BEARINGS AND OIL SEALS

1. Install the bearing(s) (1)  and oil seal(s) (2)  with their manufacturer's marks or numbers facing outward. (In other words, the stamped letters must be on the side exposed to view.) When installing oil seal(s), apply a light coating of light-weight lithium base grease to the seal lip(s). Oil the bearings liberally when installing.

CAUTION:
Do not use compressed air to spin the bearings dry. This causes damage to the bearing surfaces.

CIRCLIPS

1.All circlips should be inspected carefully before reassembly. Always replace piston pin clips after one use. Replace distorted circlips. When installing a circlip © , make sure that the sharp-edged corner © is positioned opposite to the thrust (3) it receives. See the sectional view.

4. Measure the valve clearance

NOTE:.
Be sure piston is at Top Dead Center (TDC) on compression stroke when measuring clearance.

Valve clearance measurement steps:

•Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise with a 19 mm (0.75 in) spanner.

NOTE:
Valve clearance must be measured when the engine is cool to the touch.

(1) Pickup coil mark

(2) TDC for No. 1 cylinder

(3) Firing range for the No. 1 cylinder

•Align the "T" mark (2) on the timing plate with the pickup coil mark (1) . When the "T" mark is aligned with the stationary pointer (2) . the piston is at top dead center (TDC).

 

• Measure the valve clearance using a Feeler Gauge (3).
• Record the measured amount if the clearance is incorrect.

Intake Valve (cold): 0.11- 0.20 mm (0.004- 0.008in)
Exhaust Valve (cold): 0.21- 0.30 mm (0.008- 0.012 in)

Measure valve clearance, in sequence, for Nos. 2, 4, and No. 3 cylinders.

Out of specification - Adjust clearance.

Gear Lash Measurement and Adjustment

Gear Lash Measurement and Adjustment xjcdadmin Thu, 05/07/2009 - 16:43

GEAR LASH MEASUREMENT

NOTE:
The middle gear lash can be checked only when the gears are installed in the crankcase.

1. Attach: 
• Middle Drive Pinion Holder (90890-04051) 1 .

NOTE:
Before installing the tool, loosen the holder bolt all the way out and after installation tighten this bolt as tight as necessary (finger tight is generally sufficient).

2.  Attach a dial gauge against the middle drive flange as shown

3.  Measure middle gear lash by rotating the flange gently back and forth. Follow Gear Lash Adjustment procedure if lash is not within specified limits.

Middle Gear Lash: 0.1 - 0.2 mm (0.004 - 0.008 in)

NOTE: Check this engagement at 4 points. If the gear lash exceeds the specified limit and adjustment is necessary, the engine or swing arm should be removed from the motorcycle.

GEAR LASH ADJUSTMENT

1. Install the driven gear housing assembly into the crankcase leaving about a 2 mm (0.080 in) gap 1 between the housing and crankcase and install the two bolts 2 to the bearing housing 180° opposite to each other.

2.  Attach:
• Middle Drive Pinion Holder (90890-04051)1 .
• Dial gauge

3.  Slowly tighten the bolts alternately until the dial gauge lash measurement reaches 0.2 mm (0.008 in).

4. Measure the clearance between the bearing housing and the crankcase. This clearance is the shim size required.

5.  Install the proper sized shim(s) 1

6.  Tighten the bearing housing.

Bearing Housing: 25 Nm (2.5 mkg, 18 ft-lb)

7. Recheck the middle gear lash. Readjust if necessary.

Middle Gear Inspection and Reassembly

Middle Gear Inspection and Reassembly xjcdadmin Thu, 05/07/2009 - 16:45

INSPECTION

1. Check
teeth of middle gear for discoloration/Pitting/Wear. If necessary, replace all middle gears as a set.
Damper cam surfaces for wear/Unsmooth action. Replace if necessary.

2. Check bearing movement. Rotate the race by finger and replace if rough. 

ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENT

1. Select proper middle-drive-gear shim.

NOTE:
Select proper middle-drive-gear shim whenever crankcase and/or middle gears are replaced.

Shim thickness calculation:

Calculate shim thickness using formula below:

Shim thickness (A) = c - a - b
a = 43 plus or minus the number printed on end of middle drive shaft.
b = a bearing thickness. (Considered constant)
c = 60 plus the number found on the upper crankcase half near the main bearing selection numbers:

For example: 
If middle drive shaft is marked "+03" and crankcase is tamped "45".

a= 43 + 0.03 = 43.03 mm
c= 63 + 0.45 = 60.45 mm
b= 16.94 mm (Constant) 
A = 60.45 - 43.03 - 16 .94 = 0.48 Calculated shim thickness is 0.48 mm.

Available shim thickness: 0.15 mm, 0.30 mm, 0.40 mm, 0.50 mm

Because shim can only be selected in 0.05 mm increments, use following chart to round off the hundredths digit of calculated thickness, and select appropriate shim.

 

Hundredths digit

Rounded value

0,1,2

0

3,4,5,6

5

7,8,9

10

 

In above example, calculated shim thickness is 0.48 mm. The chart instructs you, however, to round off the 8 to 10. Thus you should use two 0.50 mm shims.

2.  Install: 
• Middle drive shaft bearing.
• Middle drive pinion
• Lock washer (New)
• Nut

3.  Tighten the nut

4. Bend lock washer of nut into middle drive shaft slot using a center punch.

Description

Description xjcdadmin Thu, 05/07/2009 - 21:16

COOLANT FLOW

The coolant is circulated by an impeller type pump mounted on the right-hand crankcase and driven by a gear. The coolant is drawn by the pump from the bottom tank of the radiator, through the pipe 1, and discharged into the cylinder head and cylinder through the pipe 2. The coolant passes from the cylinder head through coolant ways and after circulating around combustion chamber jacketing enters the radiator upper tank via inlet pipe 3. The heated coolant from the engine then passes down through the finned tubes to the bottom tank of the radiator. These finned tubes present a large surface area to the air and dissipate the heat.

Fuel Level Adjustment

Fuel Level Adjustment xjcdadmin Sun, 05/10/2009 - 09:09

1. Measure fuel level. Adjust if out of specification.

 

Measurement steps:

• Place the motorcycle on a level surface.
• Shim the center stand as required to level from side to side using a level across the carb bank

NOTE: The carburetor bank can be used as a level. Set petcock to "PRI" or use temporary fuel supply. Check that the fuel level of one carb against both left and right sides of bank is be equal.


• Use a garage jack under the engine or block under the front wheel to ensure that the carburetor is positioned vertically by raising the front wheel until the rear is touching the ground.
• Take measurements at center of closest outboard
Carburetor body
• Connect the Fuel Level Gauge 1 (90890-01312) to the drain opening 2 .
• Loosen the drain screw 3 and start the engine.
• Check the fuel level, one carburetor at a time.

Fuel Level a: bottom of meniscus to bottom edge of the carburetor body 3.0 ±1.0 mm (0.12 ± 0.04 in)

 

NOTE:
• Raise the hose as high as possible before opening the drain screw, and slowly lower the hose into position to ensure no air is trapped in the hose.

• Once the drain screw is open, lower it into position. Never raise the hose while taking the measurements. Raising the hose will make the measurement inaccurate.
• Set the petcock to "PRI" or use a temporary fuel supply
• Watch the level carefully for a few moments after taking the reading. If the level slowly rises, the float needle valve is leaking and must be polished or replaced.

2. Adjust: 
• Fuel level (If necessary)

Adjustment steps:

• Remove the carburetors.
• Adjust float level by bending the float tang 1 slightly.
• Repeat the procedure for the other carburetors.

NOTE: It's easy to lose track of the carb #s once you flip them upside down to make that float tang adjustment. Marking the #1 carb with a piece of tape will help keep them identified.

1. Inspect the starter plunger 1 for damage. Replace if damaged or worn.

• Vacuum piston 2. Replace if scratched/worn.

•Throttle valve diaphragm 3. Replace if torn or damaged.

•Jet needle 4. Replace if bent or worn.

• Needle valve and valve seat 5. Replace if worn.

• Float. Replace if damaged or punctured.

• Carburetor body

• Fuel passage. Clean contaminated or plugged passages.

•Jets. Clean if contaminated or plugged.

• O-rings (Carburetor joint) 6 

Wear/Damage -► Replace.

NOTE:
• Wash the carburetor in a petroleum-based solvent. Do not use any caustic carburetor cleaning solutions.
• Blow out all passages and jets with compressed air.
• Do not attempt to push wire through brass jets. If necessary, use a single bristle from a stiff nylon brush.

ASSEMBLY:

1. Assemble the carburetors

NOTE:
To assemble the carburetors, reverse the disassembly procedures. Pay close attention to the installation of the vacuum piston diaphragm and the location of each jet.

FLOAT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

1. Measure float height a 

Float height measurement steps:

• Hold the carburetor in an upside down position.
• Incline the carburetor at 60°--70° (so that the end of the float valve does not hang down as a result of float weight).
• Measure the distance from the mating surface of the float chamber (gasket removed) to the too of the float.

NOTE:
The float should be just resting on, but not depressing, the spring loaded inlet needle.

Float Height: 17.5 ± 1.0 mm (0.69 ± 0.04 in)

Float height adjustment steps:

• Remove the float.
• Adjust float height by bending the float tang 1 slightly.
• Repeat the procedure for other carburetors.

NOTE:
Float height is an approximation of fuel level. For best results, fine tune fuel level. See Carburetor Adjustments.

 

 

Installing Carbs into old, dry rubber manifolds

INSTALLATION

Yeah, right...

Maxim X Carburetor Installation

A Technique for reinstalling old hardened intake boots. (Note: This will probably not work on other models with long boots)

This is not a Yamaha procedure. It was developed by Joe D. HAP and dv

Step 1. After soaking the rubber in a bucket of hot water, secure each air box boot to the carburetor with it's clamp.

Step 2. Slide the carbs in from the right hand side above the rubber intake manifolds on the engine and below the frame. The free end of the boot is usually much more flexible than the end that has been attached to a hot carburetor for 20 years and will flex. Take care not to pull the boots off the carbs, especially when easing #4 around the clutch cable. This is far easier to accomplish with at least two people. The rubber manifolds will also require some 'massaging' as the float bowls pass by.

Step 3, Once the carburetors are aligned with their respective intake manifolds, ease the air box boots into their holes. There are two lips that normally sit on either side of the airbox wall. Ignore them for now.

Step 4. Pull back on the carbs enough to gain clearance between the front and the manifolds. Rotate the front of the carbs down into position. Carefully examine all around each one to ensure the rubber has not folded in front of the carb. Use a hooked tool to pull any folds out as required.

Step 5, Push the carburetors forward into the manifolds. They will snap into place as the lip engages the groove on the carburetor. Secure with clamps. Massage the airbox boots into place with a long straight screwdriver. Now is the time to ensure the sealing lips are properly positioned with one lip on either side of the airbox.

 

After installation, set the throttle free-play. See Carburetor Adjustments for details.

Throttle Cable Free Play a: 2- 5 mm (0.08-0.20 in)

Shaft and Rear Drive

Shaft and Rear Drive xjcdadmin Wed, 05/13/2009 - 12:29

SHAFT DRIVE

 

Refer to "CHAPTER 3". for the middle gear.

The following special tools are not available but can be constructed for the final gear disassembly and assembly:

 

 

A. Troubleshooting

1. The following conditions may indicate damaged shaft drive components:

 

Symptoms

Possible damaged areas

1.  A pronounced hesitation or "jerky" movement during acceleration, deceleration, or sustained speed. (This must not be confused with engine surging or transmission characteristics).

2.  A "rolling rumble" noticeable at low speed; a high-pitched whine; a "clunk" from a shaft drive component or area.

A.  Damage to bearings.

B.  Improper gear lash.

C.  Gear tooth damage.

D.  Drive flange/universal joint bolts loose.

3. A locked-up condition of the shaft drive mechanism; no power transmitted from engine to rear wheel.

E.  Broken drive-shaft.

F.  Disconnected flange/universal joint connection.

G. Broken gear teeth.

H. Seizure due to lack of lubrication.

I. Small foreign object lodged between moving parts.

Note:
Damage areas A, B, and C above may be extremely difficult to diagnose. The symptoms are quite subtle and difficult to distinguish from normal motorcycle operating noise. If there is reason to believe component(s) are damaged, remove component(s) for specific inspection.

2. Inspection Notes:

a.   During coasting, accelerating or decelerating, the "rolling rumble" will increase with rear wheel speed, not engine or transmission gear speeds. However, such noise may also be due to wheel bearings.

b.   Noise that varies with acceleration and deceleration: Following incorrect reassembly, a condition of too-little gear lash may produce a whine during deceleration.

CAUTION:
Too-little gear lash is extremely destructive to gear teeth. If a test ride following reassembly indicates this condition, stop riding immediately to minimize damage to gears.

c. A slight "thunk" must be distinguished from normal motorcycle operation. It will be most noticeable at low speed and could indicate broken gear teeth.

WARNING:
If broken gear teeth are suspected, stop riding immediately. This condition could lead to locking-up of the shaft drive assembly and result in harm to a rider.

d. If the drive flange/universal joint bolts are slightly loose, a "clunk" may be felt when slowly taking off, or when changing from slow acceleration to slow deceleration. At high speed this will result in vibration.

WARNING:
Do not continue riding a motorcycle suspected of having loose flange/universal joint bolts. The components may break, causing injury to a rider.

3. Troubleshooting Chart

Where Basic Conditions "a" and "b" above exist, consider the following Chart:

Elevate and spin front wheel. Feel for wheel bearing damage.

Yes 

Replace wheel bearing.

(See CHAPTER 5 "Front wheel")


No

Check rear wheel.

Feel for bearing damage.

No

 

Rear wheel bearings and shaft drive bearings probably not damaged.

Repeat test or remove individual components.


Yes

Remove rear wheel. Check for wheel bearing damage.

Yes  

Replace rear wheel bearing. (See "Rear Wheel" section in this chapter.)


No

Remove drive shaft components.

4. Oil Leak Inspection

If a shaft drive component is suspected of leaking oil, first thoroughly clean the entire motorcycle. The apparent location of an oil leak on a dusty motorcycle may be misleading. Dry the motorcycle and apply a leak-localizing compound or a dry-powder spray that will limit the flow of any leaking oil. Operate the motorcycle prepared in this way for the distance necessary to precisely locate the leak. There are the possibilities that a component housing may have been damaged by road debris or an accident, or a gasket or seal may be cracked or broken. However, on new or nearly new motorcycle an apparent oil leak may be the result of a rust-preventive coating or excess assembly lubrication of seals. Always clean the motorcycle and recheck the suspected location of any apparent leakage.

5. Checking Drained Oil

Whenever a problem is suspected in either the middle or final gear assemblies, drain and inspect the oil. Metal particles on the drain plug or in the oil could indicate a bearing seizure or other problem in the component. However, a small amount of metal particles in the oil is normal.

B.   Final Gear Removal

1. Remove:
• Rear axle
• Rear wheel
(see "Rear Wheel" section in this chapter).
• Left shock absorber
• Nut 1
• Final gear assembly 2

2.    Remove the 4 nuts holding the Final Drive unit to the swing arm.

 

3.    Remove the final gear assembly.

C.   Gear Lash Check and Adjustment

1.    Secure the gear case in a vice or other support.

2.    Remove one nut from the final gear case stud bolt. Install the gear holder (special tool) over the ring gear surface and stud bolt. Tighten the holder to stud bolt with a nut.

1. Final gear holding tool

3. Install the final gear lash measurement tool on the gear coupling.

1. Gear lash measurement tool (Final gear)

4. Mount a dial gauge against the lash measurement tool at the scribed mark (60 mm, 2.36 in from the center of the shaft).

5. Use the special wrench to gently rotate the gear coupling back and forth. Note the lash measurement on the dial gauge.

Final gear lash:

When using the measurement tool: 0.25 - 0.50 mm (0.010-0.020 in) .
Actual gear lash on the final gear teeth: 0.1 ~ 0.2 mm (0.004 ~ 0.008 in).

1. Middle and final gear holding tool

6. If the gear lash exceeds the specified limits, adjust as follows:

a.   To reduce gear lash, increase the ring gear shim.

b.   To increase gear lash, reduce ring gear shim.

1. Ring gear shim

c. If it is necessary to increase the ring gear shim by more than 0.1 mm reduce the thrust washer thickness by 0.1 mm for each 0.1 mm of ring gear shim increase and if it is necessary to reduce shim by more than 0.1 mm, reverse above procedure.

D. Final Gear Disassembly

1.    Remove the nuts and bolts holding the bearing housing.

2.    Remove the ring gear assembly and thrust washer from the final gear case.

3. Remove the self-locking nut from drive pinion by using the holding tool (special tool) and remove the coupling.

1. Middle and final gear holding tool

4. Remove the drive pinion bearing retainer with the retainer remover (special tool).

CAUTION:
The drive pinion bearing retainer nut is left hand threads. Turn the retainer nut clockwise to loosen.

1. Drive pinion bearing retainer remover

5. Remove the drive pinion and bearing with the slide hammer and adapter (special tool).

1. Slide hammer    2. Adapter

CAUTION:
This drive pinion removal should be performed only if gearing replacement is necessary. Do not re-use bearings or races after
removal.

6. Remove the guide collar, oil seal, and roller bearing from the main housing by using the press tool No. 1 (special tool) and a press. Use an appropriate supports for the main housing during this operation. The roller bearing may be re-used if undamaged. Do not re-use oil seal.

Rear drive pinion roller bearing; removal of this bearing is difficult and seldom necessary. Heat the bare housing to 150°C (302°F). Use an appropriately shaped punch to remove the roller bearing outer race. Remove the inner race from the drive pinion.

E. Final Gear Reassembly

1.    Install the new rear drive pinion roller bearing. Heat the bare bearing to 150°C (302°F) and use an appropriately adapter to install the roller bearing outer race. Install the inner race onto the drive pinion.

2.    Using the press tool No. 2 (special tool) and a press, install the guide collet, new oil seal, and roller bearing into the main housing in that order.

NOTE:
The removed roller bearing can be used if undamaged; however, we recommend replacement with a new one.

3. Final drive/ring gear positioning 

NOTE:
When the following part(s) is replaced with new one(s), gear positioning is necessary: a. Final gear case, b. Ring gear bearing housing, C. Bearing(s)

a. The shim thickness "A" necessary for the drive pinion gear positioning can be calculated from the information found on the final gear case and on the drive gear end.

1. Size number

To fined shim thickness "A" use the

formula:

A = a -b

Where: 

a = a numeral (usually a decimal number) on the gear near the tooth and either added to or detracted from the nominal size "84". 

b = a numeral on the gear case appearing as a whole figure (ie. 83.50).

Example:

1)    If the pinion gear is marked "+01"....."a" is 84.01.

2)    If the gear case is marked "83.50".

A = 84.01 - 83.50 A = 0.51

Then the necessary shim thickness is 0.51mm.

Shim sizes are supplied in the following thicknesses:

0.15 mm, 0.30 mm, 0.40 mm, 0.50 mm, 0.60 mm.

Because the shims can only be selected in 0.05 mm increments the following chart should be used when encountering last digits that are not 5 or zero (0):

Last digits

Rounding

0,1,2

0

3, 4, 5, 6, 7

5

8,9

10

b. The shim thickness "B" necessary for the ring gear positioning can be calculated from the information found on the final gear case, ring gear, and bearing.

To find shim, thickness "B" use the

formula:

B = c + d-(e + f)

Where:

c= a numeral on the gear case appearing as a whole figure (ie. 45.52)

d = a numeral (usually a decimal number) on the outside of the ring gear bearing housing and added to the nominal size "3".

e= a numeral (usually a decimal number) on the inside of the ring gear and; either added to or detracted from the nominal size "35.40".

f = a bearing thickness (considered constant)

Distance "f" = 13.00 mm

Example:

1)    If the gear case is marked "45.52".

2)   If the ring gear bearing housing is marked "35"....."d" is 3.35.

3)    If the ring gear is marked "+01" ..... "e" is 35.40 + 0.01 = 35.41.

4)   "f" is 13.00.

B = c + d-(e + f)

B = 45.52 + 3.35 - (35.41 + 13.00)

B = 48.87- (48.41)

B = 0.46

Then the necessary shim thickness is

0.41 mm.

NOTE:
Use the chart for the drive pinion shim to select the ring gear shim size.

4. Install the drive pinion gear with the proper size of shim(s) and secure it with the bearing retainer nut with the drive pinion bearing retainer remover (special tool).

NOTE:
The bearing retainer nut is left hand threads; turn the nut to counterclockwise to tighten.

Tightening torque: 11 m-kg (80 ft-lb)

Install the ring gear assembly without the thrust washer. Adjust the gear lash (refer to "C. Gear lash check and adjustment).

Place four pieces of "PLASTIGAGE" between the originally fitted thrust washer and ring gear. Install the gear case onto the ring gear assembly and tighten the nuts and bolts with the specified torque.

Tightening torque;

Bolt/Nut......... 2.3 m-kg

(16.6 ft-lb)

NOTE:
Do not turn the drive pinion/ring gear when measuring clearance with "PLASTIGAGE".

8. Remove the ring gear assembly and determine the clearance by measuring the width of the flattened "PLASTIGAGE".

1. PLASTIGAGE

Ring gear thrust clearance. 0.1 ~ 0.2 mm

9. If the clearance exceeds the specification above, replace the thrust washer to obtain the proper clearance.

CABLE MAINTENANCE

NOTE:
See "Maintanance and Lubrication" intervals charts. Cable maintenance is primarily concerned with preventing deterioration and providing proper lubrication to allow the cable to move freely within its housing. Cable removal is straightforward and uncomplicated. Removal is not discussed within this section.

WARNING:
Cable routing is very important. For details of cable routing, see cable routing diagrams at end of this manual. Improperly routed or adjusted cables may make motorcycle operation unsafe.

1.  Remove the cable

2.  Inspect the cable for obstructed movement, kinking and/or frayed strands.Replace if damaged.

Cable Lubrication Steps:
• Hold the cable in a vertical position. 
• Apply lubricant to the uppermost end of the cable.
• Leave in a vertical position until the lubricant appears at the bottom.
• Allow excess to drain, then reinstall the cable.

NOTE:
Choice of lubricant depends upon conditions and preferences; however, a semi-drying chain and cable lubricant will perform adequately under most conditions.

THROTTLE MAINTENANCE

1.  Remove:  the Phillips head screws from throttle housing assembly. Separate the housing halves.

2.  Disconnect the cable from throttle grip assembly.

3.  Remove the throttle grip assembly

4.  Clean all parts with  mild solvent.

5.  Inspect: 
• Contact surfaces

• Maintain proper electrolyte level.
• Charge at proper current; 1.4 amps/10 hrs. or until the specific gravity reaches 1.280 at 20°C(68°F).

Failure to observe these points will result in a shortened battery life.

WARNING:
Battery electrolyte is dangerous; it contains sulfuric acid and therefore is poisonous and highly caustic.


Always follow these preventive measures: 
•Avoid bodily contact with electrolyte as it can cause severe burns or permanent eye injury. 
•Wear protective eye gear when handling or working near batteries. Antidote (EXTERNAL): 
•SKIN - Flush with water. 
•EYES — Flush with water for 15 minutes and get immediate medical attention. 
• Drink large quantities of water or milk and follow with milk of magnesia, beaten egg, or vegetable oil. Get immediate medical attention.

Batteries also generate explosive hydrogen gas, therefore you should always follow these preventive measures: 

• Charge batteries in a well-ventilated area. 
• Keep batteries away from fire, sparks, or open flames (e.g., welding equipment, lighted cigarettes, etc.) 
• DO NOT SMOKE when charging or handling batteries. KEEP BATTERIES AND ELECTROLYTE OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

Battery Service Life

DESCRIPTION

This model is equipped with a battery operated, fully transistorized, breakerless ignition system. By using magnetic pickup coils, the need for contact breaker points is eliminated. This adds to the dependability of the system by eliminating frequent cleaning and adjustment of points and ignition timing. The TCI (Transistor Control Ignition) unit incorporates an automatic advance circuit controlled by signals generated by the pickup coil. This adds to the dependability of the system by eliminating the mechanical advancer. This TCI system consists of two units; a pickup unit and an ignitor unit.

OPERATION

The TCI functions on the same principle as a conventional DC ignition system with the exception of using magnetic pickup coils and a transistor control box (TCI) in place of contact breaker points.

PickupUnit

The pickup unit consists of two pickup coils and a flywheel mounted onto the crankshaft. When the projection on the flywheel passes a pickup coil, a signal is generated and transmitted to the ignitor unit. The width of the projection on the flywheel determines the ignition advance.

1  Pickup coils

Ignitor Unit

This unit controls wave form, duty control, switching, electronic ignition advance, etc. The duty control circuit reduces electrical consumption by controlling the duration of the primary ignition current.

The ignitor unit 1 also has a protective circuit for the ignition coil. If the ignition switch is on and the crankshaft is not turning, the protective circuit interrupts the current flow to the primary coil after a few seconds. When the crankshaft is turning, however, the ignitor unit sends current to the primary coil.

1. Remove:
• Seat
• Left side cover
• Panel
• Ignitor unit 1

TROUBLESHOOTING

FLASHER RELAY (Relay Assembly)

NOTE
Flasher relay and self cancelling unit are included with relay assembly.

The flasher relay turns off the flashers. Generally the signal will cancel after either 10 seconds of operation or after the motorcycle has traveled 150 meters (490 feet), whichever is greater. At low speed, the cancelling is a function of distance; at high speeds, it's a function of both time and distance.

The flasher switch has three positions: L (left), OFF, and R (right). The switch lever will return to the "OFF" position after being pushed to L or R, but the signal will function. By pushing the lever in, the signal may be cancelled manually.

GENERAL TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS

This chart specifies torque for standard fasteners with standard l.S.O. pitch threads. Torque specifications for special components or assemblies are included in the applicable sections of this book. To avoid warpage, tighten multi-fastener assemblies in a criss-cross fashion, in progressive stages, until full torque is reached. Unless otherwise specified, torque specifications call for clean, dry threads. Components should be at room temperature.
