Checking the air induction system
Air injection
The air induction system burns unburned exhaust gases by injecting fresh air (secondary air) into the exhaust port, reducing the emission of hydrocarbons. When there is negative pressure at the exhaust port, the reed valve opens, allowing secondary air to flow into the exhaust port.
The required temperature for burning the unburned exhaust gases is approximately 600 to 700 C (1112 to 1292 F).
1. Check:
Cracks/damage Replace.
2. Check:
a. Blow air into the pipe "1" of the air induction system reed valve assembly and check that it comes out from the pipe "2".
b. Blow air into the pipe "2" of the air induction system reed valve assembly and check that it does not come out from the pipe "1".
c. If faulty, replace the air induction system reed valve assembly.
Coolant
The coolant level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the coolant
must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
To check the coolant level
Place the vehicle on a level surface
and hold it in an upright position.
