Battery
A poorly maintained battery will cor-
rode and discharge quickly. The elec-

checked before each ride and at the in-
tervals specified in the periodic mainte-
nance and lubrication chart.
To check the electrolyte level
1. Place the motorcycle on a level
surface and hold it in an upright
position.
NOTE:
_
Make sure that the motorcycle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking the
electrolyte level.
_
2.
Check the electrolyte level in the
battery.

_
The electrolyte should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
