Engine Maintenance

Engine Maintenance xjcdadmin Thu, 04/23/2009 - 15:15

 

 

ENGINE

 

A. Valve Clearance Adjustment

 

NOTE:-

Valve clearance must be measured with the engine and at room temperature.

1.    Remove the seat and fuel tank.

2.    Remove the horn, flasher relay, and spark plug lead wires.

 

3.    Remove the cylinder head cover and left crankcase cover (pick-up base cover). Care should be taken to not scratch or damage the gasket sealing surfaces,

4.    Turn the crankshaft with the nut on the left end of the crankshaft to turn the cams. The proper position of the cam when measuring the valve clearance is with the cam lobe directly opposite the valve lifter.

 

 

5. Insert a feeler gauge between the valve lifter and the camshaft base circle.

 

 

Intake valve clearance (cold):


0.11-

0.15 mm

(0.004 ~ 0.006

in)

Exhaust valve clearance (cold):


0.16-

-0.20 mm

(0.006-0.008

in)

 

Adjustment

 

Valve clearance is adjusted by replacing the adjusting pad on the top of the vale lifter. Adjusting pads are available in 25 thicknesses ranging from No. 200 (2.00 mm) to No. 320 (3.20 mm) in steps of 0.05 mm. The thickness of each pad is marked on the pad face that contacts the valve lifter (not the cam). Adjustment of the valve clearance is accomplished as follows:

1.    Determine valve clearance (feeler gauge measurement.)

2.    Remove adjusting pad and note number.

3.    Select proper pad from appropriate chart (intake or exhaust chart).

4.    Install new pad and check installed clearance.

Procedure

1.    Measure valve clearance. If clearance is incorrect, record the measured amount of clearance. This must be measured carefully.

2.   There is a slot in the valve lifter. This slot must be positioned opposite the blade of the tappet adjusting tool before the tools is installed.

3.    Turn the cam until the lobe fully depresses the valve lifter and opens the valve. Install the tappet adjusting tool as shown to hold the lifter in this depressed position.

NOTE:

The tappet adjusting tool is fastened to the cylinder head securely using an alien screw. Make sure that the tool contacts the lifter only, and not the pad.

CAUTION:-

If the cam lobe touches the tappet adjusting tool, the stress may fracture the cylinder head. DO NOT ALLOW THE CAM LOBE TO CONTACT THE TAPPET ADJUSTING TOOL.

 

4. Carefully rotate the cam so that the pad can be removed. To avoid cam touching the adjusting tool, turn cams as follows: (view from left side of the motorcycle) Intake: Carefully rotate CLOCKWISE. Exhaust: Carefully rotate COUNTERCLOCKWISE.

5. Remove the pad from the lifter. There is a slot in the lifter. Use a small screwdriver or other blade and tweezers or a magnetic rod to remove the pad. Note the number on the pad.

6  Proper pad selection is made as follows:

Chart lookup method:

(Use appropriate chart for exhaust or intake valves, attached to this page, below.)

a.   Find number of original (installed) pad number on chart. Read down on chart.

b.   Find measured valve clearance (from step 1) on chart. Read across.

c.   At the intersection of installed pad number (down) and measured clearance (across) is a new pad number.

EXAMPLE:

Intake valve, installed pad:

No. 250 (read down) Measured clearance:

0.32 mm (read across) New pad number: No. 270

(intersection of down & across)

Alternate shim calculation method:

Since all shims come in .05mm (.002") increments, you can quickly calculate the required size without a chart.

If the measured clearance is within 0.05mm (0.002") of the required clearance, then no change is needed. 

If the measured clearance greater than 0.05mm (0.002") but 0.10mm (0.004") or less different than the required clearance then the next size shim is required.

If the measured clearance greater than 0.10mm (0.004") but 0.15mm (0.006") or less different than the required clearance then the next size shim is required.

Clearances that are too small require thinner shims. Clearances that are too large require thicker shims.

Example: Required exhaust valve clearance is 0.16~0.20mm. Measured clearance is 0.12mm (gap too small). Installed shim is Y270. Required shim is one size thinner: Y265.

NOTE:

The new pad number is to be used as a guide only. Verify the correctness of this choice in the following step(s).

7.    Install the new pad in the lifter. Install the pad with the number down.

8.    Remove tappet adjusting tool,

9.   Turn crankshaft to rotate cam several rotations. This will set the pad in the lifter.

10.   Check valve clearance (step 3). If clearance is incorrect, repeat preceding steps until proper clearance is obtained.

11.    Inspect head cover gasket. If bent or torn, replace gasket.

12.    Reinstall removed parts in reverse order.

 

 

C. CAM CHAIN TENSIONER

This model has been equipped the automatic cam chain tensioner. No adjustment is necessary.

When installing this tensioner onto the cylinder proceed as follows:

1. Remove the end plug and spring from the tensioner assembly.

2.    Unlock the oneway cam by pushing it with your finger and push the tensioner rod into the tensioner body until it stops.

3.    Install the tensioner to the cylinder and torque the bolts to the specification.

Tightening torque: 1.0 m-kg (7.2 ft-lb)

4. Reinstall the spring and end plug with the gasket. Torque the end plug to the specification.

Tightening torque: 1.5 m-kg (11 ft-lb)

 

C. Ignition Timing

1. Ignition timing is checked with a timing light by observing the position of the stationary pointer and the marks stamped on the timing plate.

The timing plate is marked as follows:

 n


... Firing range for No.1 (L.H.)
cylinder

 T


... Top Dead Center for No. 1 
(L.H.) and No. 4 (R.H.)
cylinders

2.    Connect the timing light to No. 1 (L.H.) spark plug lead wire.

3.   Start the engine and keep the engine speed as specified. Use a tachometer to check the engine speed.

Specified engine speed: 1,050 r/min

4. The stationary pointer should be within the limits of "PI" on the timing plate. If it exceeds the limits or does not steady, check the timing plate for tightness and/or ignition system for damage. (See "CHAPTER 6. ELECTRICAL)

CAUTION:-

Never bend the stationary pointer.                 

 

D. Air Cleaner

1. Removal

a.   Remove the seat.

b.   Remove the tool tray.

c.   Remove the air filter case cover by removing the three screws.


d. Pull out the element.


1. Air filter element

2. Cleaning method

Tap the element lightly to remove most of the dust and dirt; then blow out the remaining dirt with compressed air from the inner surface of the element. If element is damaged, replace it.

3.    Reassemble by reversing the removal procedure. Check whether the element is seated completely against the case.

4.    The air filter element should be cleaned at the specified intervals.

 CAUTION:-

The engine should never be run without the air cleaner element installed; excessive piston and/or cylinder wear may result.

E. Carburetor

NOTE:

The carburetors are numbered 1, 2, 3, and 4 from the left when viewed from astride the motorcycle.

1.    Idle mixture

The idle mixture is set at the factory by the use of special equipment. Not attempt should be made by the dealer to change this adjustment.

2.    Synchronization

SYNCHRONIZATION

The seat must be opened and the rear of the tank elevated to gain access to the vacuum connections and synchronizing screw of the carburetors.

NOTE:

The valve clearances must be set properly before synchronizing the carburetors.

1.    Remove the vacuum pipe from the carburetor manifold (No. 3 cylinder) and turn the fuel petcock to "PRI".

2.    Remove the rubber caps from the No. 1, 2, and 4 carburetor manifolds.

 


1. Vacuum pipe 2. Rubber cap

3.    Remove either the left or right (but not both) blind plug at the end of the YICS (Yamaha Induction Control System) passage in the cylinder.

4.    Insert the YICS shutoff tool (special tool) fully and flip the locking lever.

5.    Connect each vacuum gauge hose to its proper carburetor.


1. Vacuum gauge

6.    Start the engine allow it to warm-up for a few minutes. The warm-up is complete when engine responds normally to the throttle opening.

7.    Make sure the engine idle speed is 950 ~ 1,000 r/min. If it does not, adjust the idle speed with the throttle stop screw.

NOTE:

With the YICS shutoff tool fitted, the engine speed generally drops a little. Thus, continue with the following steps at idle speed of 950 ~ 1,000 r/min.

8.     Each gauge reading will indicate the same if the carburetors are synchronized. The No. 3 carburetor has no synchronizing screw and the other carburetors are to be synchronized to it in order, one at a time.

First, synchronize carburetor No. 1 to carburetor No. 2 by turning the No. 1 synchronizing screw until both gauges read the same.

Second, in the same way synchronize carburetor No. 4 to carburetor No. 3. Third, by adjusting No. 2 screw to watch No. 3 carburetor reading, No. 1 and No. 2 carburetors will both change to match No. 3 carburetor.

 


1. Synchronizing screws

9. Remove the YICS shutoff tool and reinstall the blind plug.

Tightening torque: 2.2 m-kg (16.0 ft-lb)

10. Check the idle speed. Adjust if necessary.

 

IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT NOTE:

Carburetors must be synchronized before setting final idle speed. The idle speed adjustment is made by turning only one throttle stop screw.

1.    The engine must be warmed up before setting idle speed.

2.    Set the engine idle speed by turning the throttle stop screw in (to increase engine speed) or out (to decrease engine speed).

Standard idle speed: 1,050 r/min

 


1. Throttle stop screw

F. Engine Oil

e. Reinstall the filler cap securely.

H. Compression Pressure Measurement

Insufficient compression pressure will result in performance loss and may indicate leaking valves or worn or damaged piston rings. Procedure:

1.   Make sure the valve clearance is correct.

2.    Remove the headlight fuse from the fuse box.

3.   Warm up the engine 2 ~ 3 minutes. Stop the engine.

4.    Remove the all spark plugs.

5.    Install a compression check gauge.

6.   Turn over the engine with the electric starter (make sure the battery is fully charged) with the throttle wide open until the pressure indicated on the gauge does not increase further.

Compression pressure (at sea level):
Standard.......11 kg/cm2 (156 psi)

Minimum.......9 kg/cm2 (128 psi)
Maximum......12 kg/cm2 (171 psi)

WARNING:-

When cranking the engine, ground the removal spark plug wires to prevent sparking.

 


1. Compression gauge

7.    If the pressure is too low, squirt a few drops of oil into the cylinder being measures. Measure compression again. If there is a higher reading than before (without oil), the piston rings may be worn or damaged. If the pressure remains the same after measuring with the oil, either or both the rings and valves may be the cause.

8.    Check each cylinder. Compression pressure should not vary more than specified value from one cylinder to any other cylinder.

Difference in gauge reading: Less than 1 kg/cm2(14 psi)

Recommended brake fluid: DOT #3

b.   Refill with the same type and brand of brake fluid; mixing fluids may result in a harmful chemical reaction and lead to poor performance.

c.   Be careful that water or other contamination does not enter the master cylinder when refilling. Water will significantly lower the boiling point and may result in vapor lock.

d.   Brake fluid may erode painted surfaces or plastic parts. Always clean up spilled fluid immediately.

C. Tubeless Tires and Aluminum Wheels

This motorcycle is equipped with aluminum wheels designed to be compatible with either tube or tubeless tires. Tubeless tires are installed as standard equipment.

—WARNING:-

Do not attempt to use tubeless tires on a wheel designed for use only with tube-type tires. Tire failure and personal injury may results from sudden deflation. Tube-type Wheel — Tube-type tires only Tubeless-type Wheel — Tube-type or

Tubeless tires When using tube-type tires, be sure to install the proper tube also.

To insure maximum performance, long service, and safe operation, note the following precautions:

1.   Check tire pressure, before riding, adjust as necessary.

2.    Before operation, always check the tire surfaces for wear and/or damage; look for cracks, glass, nails, metal fragments, stones, etc. Correct any such hazard before riding.

3.   Always inspect the aluminum wheels before a ride. Place the motorcycle on the center stand and check for cracks, bends or warpage of the wheels. Do not attempt even small repairs to the wheel. If a wheel is deformed or cracked, it must be replaced.

4.   Tires and wheels should be balanced whenever either one is changed or replaced. Failure to have a wheel assembly balanced can result in poor performance, adverse handling characteristics, and shortened tire life.

5.   After installing a tire, ride conservatively to allow the tire to seat itself on the rim properly. Failure to allow proper seating may cause tire failure resulting in damage to the motorcycle and injury to the rider.

6.   After repairing or replacing a tire, check to be sure the valve stem lock nut is securely fastened. If not, torque it as specified.

Cylinder Head and Valves -- Inspection & Repair xjcdadmin Thu, 04/23/2009 - 15:15

INSPECTION AND REPAIR

A.   Cylinder Head Cover

Place head cover on a surface plate. There should be no warpage. Correct by re-surfacing as follows:

Place #400 or #600 grit wet sandpaper on surface plate and re-surface head cover using a figure-eight sanding pattern. Rotate head cover several times to avoid removing too much material from one side.

B.   Cylinder Head

1.    Using a rounded scraper, remove carbon deposits from combustion chamber. Take care to avoid damaging spark plug threads and valve seats. Do not use a sharp instrument. Avoid scratching the aluminum.

2.    Check the cylinder head warpage with a straight edge as shown.

The warpage should not exceed the specified limit, if necessary resurface. If the warpage exceeds allowable limit, the cylinder head should be replaced with a new one.

Cylinder head warpage:

less than 0.05 mm (0.002 in) Allowable limit: 0.25 mm (0.010 in)

C. Valve, Valve Guide, and Valve Seat

1. Check the valve face and the stem end for wear. If the valve face and/or the stem end are pitted or worn, regrind the valve with a valve refacer. Replace the valve if any dimension exceeds the specifications in the illustration.

2. Valve stem wear must be measured and then combined with valve guide measurements to guide clearance. This clearance must be within tolerances. If it exceeds the maximum limit, then replace either or both valve and guide, as necessary.

 

 


Valve Stem Clearance

Maximum

Intake

0.010 — 0.037 mm (0.0004-0.0015 in)

0.10 mm (0.004 in)

Exhaust

0.025-0.052 mm (0.0010-0.0020 in)

0.12 mm (0.005 in)

3.    Valve stem end

Inspect the end of the valve stem. If the end appears to be "mushroomed" or has a larger diameter than the rest of the stem, the valve, valve guide, and oil seal should be replaced.

4.   Turn valve on "V" blocks and measure the amount of stem runout with a dial gauge. If it exceeds the maximum limit, replace the valve.

Maximum valve stem runout: 0.03 mm (0.0012 in)

5. Valve guide and valve oil seal replacement If oil leaks into the cylinder through a valve due to a worn valve guide, or if a valve is replaced, the valve guide should also be replaced.

NOTE:

The valve oil seal should be replaced whenever a valve is removed or replaced.

a. Measure valve guide inside diameter with a small bore gauge. If it exceeds the limit, replace with an oversize valve guide.

Guide diameter (I.D.):

Limit: 7.10 mm (0.280 in)

b.  To ease guide removal and reinstallation, and to maintain the correct interference fit, heat the head to 100t (212°F). Use an oven to avoid any possibility of head warpage due to uneven heating.

c.   Use the appropriate shouldered punch (special tool) to drive the old guide out and drive the new guide in.

NOTE:

When a valve guide is replaced, the O-ring should also be replaced.


1. Valve guide remover     2. Valve guide installer

d. After installing the valve guide, use the 7 mm reamer (special tool) to obtain the proper valve guide to valve stem clearance.

e. After installing the valve guide in the cylinder head, the valve seat must be recut. The valve should be lapped to the new seat.

6. Grinding the Valve Seat

a. The valve seat is subject to severe wear. Whenever the valve is replaced or the valve face is re-surfaced (see caution) the valve seat should be re-surfaced at a 45° angle. If a new valve guide has been installed the valve seat must be recut to guarantee complete sealing between the valve face and seat.

 CAUTION:

If the valve seat is obviously pitted or worn, it should be cleaned with a valve seat cutter. Use the 45° cutter, and when twisting the cutter, keep an even downward pressure to prevent chatter marks.

If cutting section "A" of the valve seat, use 30° cutter. If cutting section "B", use the 45° cutter. If cutting section "C" use 60° cutter. b. Measure valve seat width. Apply mechanic's bluing dye (such as Dykem) to the valve face and valve seat, apply a very small amount of fine grinding compound around the surface of the valve face insert the valve into position, and spin the valve quickly back and forth. Lift the valve, clean off all grinding compound, and check valve seat width. The valve seat and valve face will have removed bluing wherever they contacted each other. Measure the seat width with vernier calipers. It should measure approximately 1.1 mm (0.0433 in). Also, the seat should be uniform in contact area. If valve seat width varies, or if pits still exist, further cutting will be necessary. Remove just enough material to achieve a satisfactory seat.


Standard Width

Wear Limit

Seat width

2.0 mm (0.080 in)

a. Seat width

c. If the valve seat is uniform around the perimeter of the valve face, but is too wide or not centered on the valve face, it must be altered. Use either the 30°, 45° or 60° cutters to correct the improper

seat location in the manner described below:

1) If the valve face shows that the valve seat is centered on the valve face, but too wide, then lightly use both the 30° and the 60° cutters to reduce the seat width to 1.1 mm (0.0433 in).


1. Valve seat cutter

2)   If the seat shows to be in the middle of the valve face, but too narrow, use the 45°cutter until the width equals 1.1 mm (0.0433 in).

3)   If the seat is too narrow and right up near the valve margin, then first use the 30° cutter and then the 45° cutter to get the correct seat width.

4)   If the seat is too narrow and down near the bottom edge of the valve face, then first use the 60° cutter and then the 45° cutter.

7. Lapping the valve/valve seat assembly a. The valve/valve seat assembly should be lapped if neither the seat nor the valve face are severely worn.

b. Apply a small amount of coarse lapping compound to valve face. Insert the valve into the head. Rotate the valve until the valve and valve seat are evenly polished. Clean off the coarse compound, then follow the same procedure with fine compound.

Continue lapping until the valve face shows a complete and smooth surface all the way around. Clean off the compound material. Apply bluing dye to the valve face and seat and rotate the valve face for full seat contact which is indicated by a grey surface all around the valve face where the bluing has been rubbed away.

c. Valve leakage check

After all work has been performed on the valve and valve seat, and all head parts have been assembled, check for proper valve/valve seat sealing by pouring solvent into each of the intake ports, then the exhaust ports. There should be no leakage past the seat. If fluid leaks, disassemble and continue to lap with fine lapping compound. Clean all parts thoroughly, reassemble and check again with solvent. Repeat this procedure as often as necessary to obtain a satisfactory seal.

 

Valve Springs and Lifters, Camshafts, Chain and Guides -- Inspection and Repair

Valve Springs and Lifters, Camshafts, Chain and Guides -- Inspection and Repair xjcdadmin Thu, 04/23/2009 - 15:15

D. Valve Spring and Lifters

1. Checking the valve springs

a.   This engine uses two springs of different sizes to prevent valve float or surging. The valve spring specifications show the basic value characteristics.

b.   Even though the spring is constructed of durable spring steel, it gradually loses some of it's tension. This is evidenced by a gradual shortening of free length. Use a vernier caliper to measure spring free length. If the free length of any spring has decreased more than 2 mm (0.080 in) from its specification replace it.

c. Another symptom of a fatigued spring is insufficient spring pressure when compressed. This can be checked using a valve spring compression rate gauge. Test each spring individually. Place it in the gauge and compress the spring first to the specified compressed length with the valve closed (all spring specifications can be found in the previous section, Valve Spring), then to the length with the valve open. Note the poundage indicated on the scale at each setting. Use this procedure with the outer springs, then the inner springs.

NOTE:

All valve springs must be installed with larger pitch upward as shown.

2. Valve lifter

a. Check each valve lifter for scratches or other damage. If the lifter is damaged in any way, the cylinder head surface in which it rides is probably also damaged. If the damage is severe, it may be necessary to replace both the lifter and the cylinder head.

NOTE:

For proper valve lifter-to-head clearance, always install lifters on their original valves.

E. Camshafts, Cam chain and Cam Sprockets

1. Camshaft

a.   The cam lobe metal surface may have a blue discoloration due to excessive friction. The metal surface could also start to flake off or become pitted.

b.   If any of the above wear conditions are readily visible, the camshaft should be replaced.

c.   Even though the cam lobe surface appears to be in satisfactory condition, the lobes should be measured with a micrometer. Cam lobe wear can occur without scarring the surface. If this wear exceeds a pre-determined amount, valve timing and lift are affected. Replace the camshaft if wear exceeds the limits.

d.   Install the camshaft on the cylinder head. Place a strip of Plastigage between camshaft and camshaft cap as illustrated (lengthwise along camshaft). Tighten the nuts with specified torque. Remove the camshaft cap and determine the clearance by measuring the width of the flattened Plastigage.

Cap nut tightening torque: 1.0m-kg(7.2ft-lb)

1. Plastigage

NOTE:

Do not turn camshaft when measuring clearance with Plastigage.

Camshaft-to-cap clearance:

Standard:

0.020-0.054 mm

 

(0.0008- 0.0021 in)

Maximum:

0.160 mm (0.006 in)

If the camshaft-to-cap clearance exceeds specification, measure camshaft bearing surface diameter.

Bearing surface diameter:

Standard:

24.967-24.980 mm

 

(0.9830-0.9835 in)

1) If camshaft diameter is less than specification, causing excessive clearance, replace camshaft.

2)  If camshaft is within specification and camshaft-to-cap clearance is excessive, replace cylinder head.

2.    Cam chain

Except in cases of oil starvation, the cam chain wears very little. If the cam chain has stretched excessively and it is difficult to keep the proper cam chain tension, the chain should be replaced.

3.    Cam sprockets

Check cam sprockets for obvious wear.

4, Cam chain dampers and tensioner

Inspect the top cam chain damper (stopper guide) and two (2) vertical (slipper-type) dampers for excessive wear. Any that shows excessive wear should be replaced. Worn dampers may indicate an improperly adjusted or worn-out cam chain.

5. Drive gear positioning

NOTE:

When the following part(s) is replaced with new one(s), drive gear positioning is necessary

a.   Crankcase

b.   Middle gears

c.   Middle gear bearing housing

a. The shim thickness necessary for the drive gear positioning can be calculated from the information found on the upper crankcase and on the drive gear shaft.

b. To find shim thickness "A" use the

formula:

A = c —a — b

Where:

a= a numeral (usually a decimal number) printed on the shaft end as shown above and either added to or subtracted from the nominal size "43".

b = a bearing thickness (considered constant)

c = a numeral (usually a decimal number) found on the upper crankcase half near the main bearing selection numbers and added to the nominal size "60".

Distance "b"^ 16.94 mm

Example:

1)lf the shaft is marked +03 ...... "a" is

43.03 mm.

2)   "b" is 16.94 mm.

3) If the crankcase is stamped "45" ..... "c"

is 60.45 mm.

A = c — a —b

A = 60.45 ^16.94-43.03

A = 0.48

Then the necessary shim thickness is

0.48 mm.

c. Shim size are supplied in the following thicknesses:

0.15 mm, 0.20 mm, 0.30 mm, 0.40 mm, and 0.50 mm.

Anti Dive System

Anti Dive System xjcdadmin Sat, 05/02/2009 - 09:40

 

ANTI-DIVE SYSTEM

 

Normal oil flow -- no brakes applied.

 

Oil flow as brakes are applied. Brake fluid pressure begins to move actuating piston against the small spring, pushing piston against seat, thereby restricting oil flow from the outside of the fork tube to the inside.

 

Adjuster fully extended -- all lines showing.

Oil flow as the adjusting bolt is set to the minimum effect. As the fork tries to compress, pressure builds on the seat, overcoming the pressure of the large spring, allowing the seat to move and fluid to pass from outside to inside the tube.

NOTE: Some fluid is always allowed to pass through the restricted passage above the anti-dive ports.

 

Adjuster fully seated -- head flush with notch.

Oil flow as the adjusting bolt is set to the maximum effect. The bolt applies greater force to the large spring, increasing the pressure required to move the seat.

 

System inspection

1.    Apply the front brake for a few minutes and check to see if any brake fluid leaks out of the pipe joint and/or the vent.

2.    Check the fork for fork oil leakage.

3.    Turn the anti-dive adjusting bolt to the maximum position.

4.    Compress the front forks while applying the front brake. If the front forks are compressed easily, the anti-dive system may be damaged.

Removal

1.    Release the air from the front fork by pressing the air valve pin.

2.    Remove the drain screw from the anti-dive valve housing and drain the fork oil.

3.    Remove the brake hose from the actuating piston housing.

4.    Remove the bolts securing the actuating piston housing, and remove the housing from the anti-dive valve housing.

Remove the anti-dive adjusting bolt cover and remove the adjusting bolt seat.

The adjusting bolt can not be removed from its seat.

6. Remove four bolts securing the anti-dive valve assembly and remove the housing assembly from the front fork. Remove two O-rings from the front fork.


Inspection

NOTE:

The anti-dive valve housing can not be disassembled so it must be replaced with a new one if the anti-dive valve malfunction is found.

1. Remove the circlip and remove the actuating piston from the actuating piston housing.

1. Circlip           2. Actuating piston

 

Do not remove the O-ring from the actuating piston.

2. Check the piston, O-ring, and cylinder for wear, cracks, rust, and/or scrathces. If any damage is found, replace the actuating piston housing assembly.

3. Check the piston separator for cracks and replace if damaged.

4. Check the spring seat rivetted portion of the adjusting bolt for damage. Replace the adjusting bolt seat assembly if damaged.


Assembly

1.    Lubricate the actuating piston with clean brake fluid, and carefully insert the piston into the actuating piston housing cylinder until the shoulder of the piston is flush with the cylinder edge.

2.    Install the washer and circlip.

3.    Install the separator into the actuating piston housing.

4.    Install new O-rings around the front fork oil passages.

9. Pour the specified amount of front fork oil into the fork inner tube.

Front fork oil capacity (each leg):

309 cc (10.5 oz) Recommended oil:

Yamaha fork oil 20Wt or equivalent

10.    Add proper brake fluid into the brake reservoir being careful not to spill or overflow.

11.    Connect the clear plastic tube of 4.5 mm in inside diameter tightly to the actuating piston housing bleed screw. Put the other end of the tube into a container.

12.    Slowly apply the brake lever several times. Pull in the lever. Hold the lever in the "on" position. Loosen the bleed screw. Allow the lever to travel slowly toward its limit. When the limit is reached, tighten the bleed screw. Then release the lever.

13.    Repeat the above step until all air bubbles are removed from the brake line. It may be necessary to bleed the caliper cylinder in the same manner.

NOTE:

If the bleeding is difficult, it may be necessary to let the brake fluid in the system stabilize for a few hours and repeat the bleeding procedure.

14. Fill the fork with air using a manual air pump or other pressurized air supply.

CABLE AND FITTINGS A. Cable Maintenance

NOTE:

See Maintenance and Lubrication intervals charts. Cable maintenance is primarily concerned with preventing deterioration through rust and weathering and providing proper lubrication to allow the cable to move freely

within its housing. Cable removal is straight forward and uncomplicated. Removal will not be discussed within this section.

WARNING:

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

1.    Remove the cable.

2.    Check for free movement of cable within its housing. If movement is obstruced, check for fraying or kinking of the cable strands. If damage is evident, replace the cable assembly.

3.    To lubricate the cable, hold it in a vertical position. Apply lubricant to the uppermost end of cable. Leave it in the vertical position until lubricant appears at the bottom. Allow any excess to drain and 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.

B. Throttle Maintenance

1.    Remove the Phillips head screws from throttle housing assembly and separate the two halves of housing.

2.    Disconnect the cable end from the throttle grip assembly and remove the grip assembly.

3.    Wash all parts in a mild solvent and check all contact surfaces for burrs or other damage. (Also clean and inspect right-hand end of the handlebar.)

4.    Lubricate all contact surfaces with a light coat of lithium soap base grease and reassemble.

NOTE:

Tighten the housing screws evenly to maintain an even gap between the two halves.

5. Check for smooth throttle operation and quick spring return when released and make certain that the housing does not rotate on the handlebar.

 

Shaft and Rear Drive

Shaft and Rear Drive xjcdadmin Thu, 04/23/2009 - 15:15

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 the rear axle and left shock absorber. Remove the rear wheel (see "Rear Wheel" section in this chapter).

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.

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:

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

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. 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 fMb)

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.

Starting circuit operation

 

The starting circuit on this model consists of the starter motor, starter relay, and the starting-circuit cut-off relay. If the engine stop switch and the main switch are both on, the starter motor can operate only if:

 

a.    The transmission is in neutral (the neutral switch is on).

 

or if

 

b.    The clutch lever is pulled to the handlebar (the clutch switch is on) and the sidestand is up (the sidestand switch is on.)

 

Starting-circuit cut-off relay inspection

 

1.    Open the seat, and remove the fuel tank.

 

2.    Remove the starting-circuit cut-off relay from the frame, and disconnect the connector.

 

The starting-circuit cut-off relay prevents the starter from operating when neither of these conditions has been met. In this instance, the starting-circuit cut-off relay is off so current cannot reach the starter motor.

 

When one or both of the above conditions have been met, however, the starting-circuit cut-off relay is on, and the engine can be started by pressing the starter switch.

 

 

 

1. Starting-circuit cut-off relay

 

3. Check the resistance of the relay coil windings with the pocket tester. If the resistance is not within specification, replace the relay.

 

 

4. Check the relay function with a 12 volt battery and the pocket tester. Connect the leads as shown in the illustration. If the resistance readings do not equal those shown in the illustration, replace the relay.

 

 

5. Check the diode in the starting circuit cut-off relay with the pocket tester as shown in the illustration. Replace the relay if the diode is damaged.

 

 

NOTE:

 

Only the Yamaha Pocket Tester will give a 9.5Ω reading when testing continuity. The particular characteristics of other testesr will very the continuity test readings.

Generated voltage: 14.5± 0.3V

d. If the indicated voltage cannot be reached, then perform the tests in step 2.

CAUTION:---

Never disconnect wires from the battery while the generator is in operation. If the battery is disconnected, the voltage across the generator terminals will increase, damaging the semiconductors.

2. Resistance test of field coil and stator coil.

Check the resistance between terminals. If resistance is out of specification, coil is broken. Check the coil connections. If the coil connections are good, then the coil is broken inside and it should be replaced.

Field coil resistance:

(Green-Brown)

4.0Ω ± 10% at 20°C (68°F)

Stator coil resistance

(White-White)

0.46Ω ± 10% at 20°C (68°F)

C. Voltage Regulator

The IC Voltage Regulator is a small and, normally, very reliable component. Due to its construction, it is lightweight and free from the wear and misadjustment associated with mechanical voltage regulators. If the following inspection reveals that the regulator is faulty, it cannot be adjusted and must be replaced. 

1. Checking IC Voltage Regulator

a.   Remove the seat.

b.   Remove the left side cover.

c.  Measure the specific gravity of the battery fluid. If it is less than 1.260, remove the battery and recharge until it is more than 1.260. (See page 124 for charging procedures)

d.  Check the battery terminals and couplers for looseness.

e.  Connect two Yamaha pocket testers to the regulator coupler as illustrated.

—CAUTION:

Be careful not to let the tester leads short circuit when connecting them to the regulator snap connector leads.

f.   Turn the main switch on. Make sure that V2 is less than 1.8V.

NOTE:

Do not turn on lights or signals.

g.   Make sure that V2 gradually increases up to 9 ~ 11V when the engine is started and its revolutions go up.

h. Make sure that Vi maintains the level of 14.2 ~ 14.8V even when engine revolutions increase.

i. If these levels are not maintained, the regulator is defective and must be replaced.

2. Checking the silicon rectifier a. Check the silicon rectifier as specified using the Yamaha pocket tester.

Ignition System

Ignition System xjcdadmin Thu, 04/23/2009 - 15:15

E. IGNITION SYSTEM

Above circuit diagram shows only ignition circuit in wiring diagram.

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.

NOTE:

The ignition circuit can be operated only when the sidestand is up (the sidestand switch is on) or the transmission is in neutral.

Operation

The TCI functions to 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.

1. Pick-up unit

1. Pick-up coils

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.

 

2- Ignitor unit

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

The ignitor unit 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.

 

CAUTION:

Do not run the engine without any spark plug cap(s) in place. Due to the high secondary voltage, it is possible to damage the internal insulation of the secondary coil.

 

3. Sidestand relay

The sidestand relay operates by shorting the TCI control current. When the side-stand is down, the sidestand relay is closed, and the TCI control current is grounded through the sidestand relay. Thus, the engine will not run with the sidestand down unless the transmission is in neutral.

 

D. Troubleshooting/Inspection

1. The entire ignition system can be checked for misfire and weak spark using the Electro Tester. If the ignition system will fire across a sufficient gap, the entire ignition system can be considered good. If not, proceed with individual component tests until the problem is found.

a. Warm up engine thoroughly so that all electrical components are at operating temperature.

b. Stop the engine and connect the tester as shown.

c. Start the engine and increase the spark gap until misfire occurs. (Test at various r/min between idle and red line.)

Minimum spark gap: 6 mm (0.24 in)

CAUTION:

Do not run engine in neutral above 6,000 r/min for more than 1 or 2 seconds.

2. If the ignition system should become inoperative, the following troubleshooting aids will be useful.

Check entire ignition for connections

--------------->

Poor connection

Correct

OK

    Check battery for voltage and specific gravity

--------------->

Low voltage & specific gravity

Recharge battery

OK

    Check fuse and fuse connections --------------->
Weak connection or open circuit
Correct connection or replace fuse

OK

    Check resistance of ignition coil {primary and secondary) 
Primary: 2.5 Ω ± 10% at 20°C (68°F) 
Secondary: 11KΩ ± 20% at 20°C(68 F)

--------------->

If other than specified

Replace ignition coil

OK

    Check pick-up coils for resistance Pick-up coil: 700 Ω ± 20% at 20°C (68°F)

--------------->

If other than specified

Replace pick-up coil assembly

OK

    TCI unit is faulty, replace unit    

 

3. Ignition coil 

a. Coil spark gap test.

1)   Remove the fuel tank and disconnect the ignition coil from wire harness and spark plugs.

2)   Connect the Electro Tester as shown.

3)  Connect fully charged battery to tester.

4)  Turn on spark gap switch and the increase gap to maximum unless misfire occurs first.

Minimum spark gap: 6 mm (0.24 in)

b. Direct current resistance test. Use a pocket tester or equivalent ohmmeter to determine resistance and continuity of primary and secondary coil windings.

Standard value: Primary coil resistance:

2.5 ± 10% at 20°C (68°F) 

Secondary coil resistance:

11 KΩ  ± 20% at 20% (68°F)

Primary coil check

 

Secondary coil check

 

4. Spark plug

The life of a spark plug and its discoloring vary according to the habits of the rider. At each periodic inspection, replace burned or fouled plugs with new ones of the specified type. It is actually economical to install new plugs often since it will tend to keep the engine in good condition and prevent excessive fuel consumption.

a.    Inspection

1)   Inspect and clean the spark plug every 4,000 km (2,500 mi) and replace after initial 13,000 km (8,000 mi).

2)   Clean the electrodes of carbon and adjust the electrode gap to the specification.

b.   Installation

Be sure to use the proper reach, type and electrode gap plug(s) as a replacement to

avoid overheating, fouling or piston damage.

Type:

BP7ES (NGK) or W22EP (ND) Electrode gap:

0.7 - 0.8 mm (0.028 - 0.031 in) Tightening torque:

2.0 m-kg (14.5 ft-lb)

 

Sidestand relay inspection

1.   Open the seat, and remove the fuel tank.

2.    Remove the sidestand relay from the frame, and disconnect the connector.

1. Sidestand relay

3. Check the resistance of the relay coil windings with the pocket tester. If the resistance is not within specification, replace the relay.

4. Check the relay contact breaker points with the pocket tester and a 12 bolt battery. Connect the leads as shown in the illustration. If the resistance readings do not equal those shown in the illustration, replace the relay.

Signals

Signals xjcdadmin Thu, 04/23/2009 - 15:15

 

G. SIGNAL SYSTEM

 

 

Above circuit diagram shows only signal circuit in wiring diagram.

B. Signal System Tests and Checks

The battery provides power for operation of the horn, brake light, indicator lights and flasher light. If none of the above operates, always check battery voltage before proceeding further. Low battery voltage indicates either a faulty battery, low battery water, or a defective charging system. See page 113 "CHARGING SYSTEM" for checks of battery and charging system. Also check fuse condition. Replace any "open" fuses. There are individual fuses for various circuits (see complete Circuit Diagram).

1.    Horn does not work:

a.   Check for 12V on brown wire to horn.

b.   Check for good grounding of horn (pink wire) when horn button is pressed.

2.    Brake light does not work:

a.   Check bulb.

b.   Check for 12V on yellow wire to brake light.

c.   Check for 12V on brown wire to each brake light switch (front brake and rear brake switches).

3.    Flasher light(s) do not work:

a.   Check bulb.

b.   Right circuit:

1)   Check for 12V on dark green wire to light.

2)  Check for ground on black wire to light assembly.

c.   Left circuit:

1)  Check for 12V on dark brown wire to light.

2)  Check for ground on black wire to light assembly.

d.   Right and left circuits do not work:

1)   Check for 12V on brown/white wire to flasher switch on left handlebar.

2)  Check for 12V on brown wire to flasher relay.

3)   Replace flasher relay.

4)   Replace flasher switch.

e.   Check flasher self-canceling system. (Refer to flasher self-canceling system.)

4. Neutral light does not work:

a.   Check bulb.

b.   Check for 12V on sky blue wire to neutral switch.

c.   Replace neutral switch.

6. Oil level warning light does not work:

a.   Connect oil level switch (black/red wire) to ground. If light comes on, check for proper oil level.

b.   If oil level is correct, replace oil level switch.

C. Self-Canceling Flasher System

1.    Description:

The self-canceling flasher system turns off the turn signal after a period of time or distance involved in turning or changing lanes. Generally, the signal will cancel after either 10 seconds, or 150 meters (490 feet), whichever is greater. At very low speed, the function is determined by distance; at high speed, especially when changing speeds the canceling determination is a combination of both times and distance.

2.    Operation:

The handlebar 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.

3.    Inspection

If the flasher self-canceling system should become inoperative, proceed as follows:

a. Pull of the 6-pin connector from the flasher canceling unit, and operate the handlebar switch, if the signal operates normally in L, R, and OFF, the following are in good condition.

1)   Flasher unit

2)   Bulb

3)   Lighting circuit

4)   Handlebar switch light circuit

If (1) through (4) are in good condition, the following may be faulty:

1)   Flasher canceling unit.

2)   Handlebar switch reset circuit.

3)   Speedometer sensor circuit.

b.   Pull off the 6-pin connector from the flasher canceling unit, and connect a tester (ohms x 100 range) across the white/green and the black lead wires on the wire harness side. Turn the speedometer shaft. If the tester needle swing back and forth between 0 and , the speedometer sensor circuit is in good condition. If not, the sensor to wire harness may be inoperative.

c.    Pull the 6-pin connector from the flasher canceling unit. Check if there is continuity between the yellow/red lead wire on the wire harness side and the chassis.

Flasher switch OFF:  
Flasher switch L or R: 0 ohms

If the tester needle does not swing as indicated above, check the handlebar switch circuit and wire harness.

d.   If no defect is found with the above three check-ups and the flasher canceling system is still inoperative, replace the flasher canceling unit.

e.    If the signal flashes only when the handlebar switch lever is turned to L or R and it turns off immediately when the handlebar switch lever returns to center, replace the flasher canceling unit.

NOTE: Before starting out on the road, check the motorcycle conditions using computerized monitor system.

1. 
  When the main switch is turned on, all seven liquid crystal displays
(LCDs) come on, with the fuel display indicating the amount of fuel in
the tank.


2. 
  When the engine is started, the system begins its scan of the
motorcycle conditions. From top to bottom all the LCDs flash on and
then off in sequence. If any one condition is found improper or
inadequate, the red warning light will begin flashing and the LCD for
the area in question will remain displayed.

3. 
  Warning light operation can be controlled by the warning control
switch. If the control switch is pushed once, the warning light glow
will change from a flashing to a steady one. If pushed again, the glow
will go out completely. Still another push on the switch brings back
the warning light operation all over again.

NOTE:

1.    This switch operates only when a malfunction is displayed on an LCD.

2.    Even if the warning light is made to glow; steady or to go out, it will begin flashing on with another malfunction.

4. 
  The entire monitoring system condition can be checked by pushing the
check switch. The system will scan through the seven areas in sequence,
just as when the engine was first started, to assure the rider that the
system is functioning properly.

EXAMPLES OF OTHER TROUBLES

The computerized monitor system may malfunction under the following conditions, though it is in good condition. The term "malfunction" means an erratic change in the display when the computerized monitor is not operated.

1.    The battery is in a state of extremely low voltage. The computerized monitor system is so designed that it operates normally when a specific voltage is input. Therefore, if the battery has almost run down or sulfation, the system may malfunction.

2.    The computerized monitor system is interfered by radio noise. The system has a protective device against radio noise, but some special radio noise may cause the system to malfunction.

Radio noise can be produced in the following cases:
a.  When spark plugs without resistor are used on an engine for which spark plugs with built-in resistor should be used.
b.  When a special horn is used.

EXAMPLES OF ERRATIC LC. DISPLAYS

If any one of the following symptoms appears, the L.C. display is considered to be faulty.

1. Part of the L.C. display is chipped off.

2. The deflecting plate has scratches or cavities.

3.    Glass is cracked or chipped,

4.    Contrast is uneven on the same display.

Cleaning and Replacing the CMS Display/ Microcomputer

Cleaning and Replacing the CMS Display/ Microcomputer xjcdadmin Sat, 05/02/2009 - 21:56

Cleaning and replacement

Use the following procedure to replace the LCD unit or the microcomputer unit.

1. Remove the headlight lens and the two headlight-body holding bolts. This will give you easy access to the instrument-panel holding nuts.

2.   Disconnect the wire connectors in the headlight assembly that lead to the instrument panel.

3.   Disconnect the speedometer cable.

4.    Disconnect the instrument-panel holding nuts, and remove the panel.

5.    Remove the three nuts which secure the instrument-panel mounting bracket, and remove the bracket.

6.   Place the instrument panel assembly on a clean work surface, and remove the back panel.

7.    Remove the four Phillips-head screws which secure the LCD/microcomputer, and remove the unit.

8.    Remove the four screws which hold the LCD display holder.

9.   Very carefully turn the display holder over, and completely remove the five display plate holding screws. Remove the LCD reflector and the display plate.

10. Detach the wire connector from its indexing points.

Disconnect the wire connector carefully. Do not pull on the wire connector. It is indexed and could be damaged if you pull on it. Do not touch the connector contacts. They are gold plated.

11.    Remove the display plate and the LCD unit.

12.   Clean the display plate and the LCD unit.

CAUTION:

a.    Use compressed-air lens cleaner (as used on cameras) to clean the display and the LCD unit. Do not use shop air for this purpose.

b.   Use a soft cloth. Do not use cotton. It will leave lint deposits which will interfere with the delicate contacts.

c.   Very carefully clean the LCD unit because it is possible to generate enough static electricity to damage it.

13. Reinstall the LCD unit into the display holder.

Do not touch the LCD connector with bare hands.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

The LCD unit must line up as shown in the illustration to seal the LCD unit properly.

14.    Reinstall the LCD reflector so that the shiny surface faces toward the LCD unit.

15.   Carefully place the wire connector on the LCD connector and seat it on its two indexing points. Install the display plate and carefully screw in the wire connector indexing screw first. Then screw in the remaining four holding screws. Do not overtighten the screws.

Tightening torque:

3 mm:

10cm-kg(0.7ft-lb)

 

(Use LOCTITE)

4 mm:

24cm-kg(1.7ft-lb)

16. Reinstall the display holder on the microcomputer.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Before reinstalling the components, connect the LCD assembly to the motorcycle and check that it is function properly.

17.   Reinstall the entire unit in the instrument panel.

18.   Reinstall the instrument panel back to the motorcycle.

19.   Check that the COM system is functioning properly.
