Engine Oil

Genuine Motor Oil is the oil brand recommended by Genuine Scooters. Your scooter operates under intense conditions, including higher engine speed, hotter temperatures, and higher compression ratios than other vehicle types. These extreme conditions subject the oil to significant operational stress and require a lubricant specifically designed for scooters.

Only use JASO MB 15W-40 engine oil.

JASO MB oils are very low friction oils formulated for use in engines that do not have wet clutch systems. Other oil types may severely damage your engine and void any warranty. All JASO rated oils will display the JASO

oil classification on the bottle within an outlined border like the example above.

Many oils claim to "meet or exceed" JASO ratings but are not verified to meet these standards. If an oil does not have a 10-character oil code and the JASO MB rating prominently displayed on the label, then the oil has not been verified by the Japan Lubricating Oil Society and should not be used in your scooter.

Engine Oil Check

Start engine and run for 1 minute prior to checking oil level. The engine oil fill access is located near the lower right side of the vehicle. Remove the cap and check the oil level on the dipstick.

Add JASO MB 15W-40 engine oil if the oil level is low. Replace cap.

WARNING

Failure to use JASO MB 15W-40 oil and/or failure to maintain proper oil level in your engine may result in premature wear, severe engine damage or catastrophic engine failure.

Pre-Ride Inspection

Perform a pre-ride inspection prior to every ride.

Tires

Perform a physical inspection of both the front and rear tire. Inspect the tread depth to gauge tire wear.

Locate the initials "T.W.I." on the tire sidewall. This is the location of the Tread Wear Indicator.

Move inward toward the center of the tire to find the raised portion of the tire groove. This is the Tread Wear Indicator.

Replace tire when tread wear indicators come in contact with the road surface.

Inspect the tire for foreign material such as nails, screws, glass or other objects that may have become lodged in the tire. Visit a Genuine Scooter Company dealer for tire replacement if necessary.

Tire Pressure

Perform tire pressure checks while the tires are cold: Remove the valve stem caps. Check the tire pressure.

Standard Tire Pressure

Front: 32 psi

Rear: 32 psi

Adjust the tire pressure according to the total weight load. Re-install the valve caps.

Do not fill your fuel tank over the neck-line on the fuel tank inlet.

Fuel expands under the influence of heat. An over-filled fuel tank can cause fuel to spill when the vehicle is warm.

Inspect your fuel system including tank, hoses, petcock and filter for leaks. If a leak is found, repair immediately.

WARNING

Both fuel and fuel vapor are highly flammable. Do not smoke or bring an open flame near the fuel tank. Explosions can occur.

Lighting

Lighting is a very important safety feature that helps you navigate at night and communicate your actions with other drivers. Properly functioning lighting can make you more visible to other drivers, reducing the possibility of an accident.

Check the front and rear turn signal indicators, head light, tail - light, brake light, speedometer backlighting, and all indicator lights to assure they are in proper working order.

Make sure all lenses are clean of dirt and debris.

Switches

Check the function of all switches for lighting, signals, horn, etc. Repair as necessary.

Loading

Load your scooter properly. An improperly loaded scooter can cause an accident.

- Make sure the left-to-right weight distribution is balanced.

- Check that all fasteners are correct and tight.

- Do not transport bulky loads.

- Do not load your vehicle in a manner that covers lighting or impedes the movement of any vehicle component.

Avoid opening the throttle beyond 1/2 throttle. Cool down the engine for 10 minutes, after every 30 minutes of operation. Do not operate at a constant speed; change your speed regularly.

100 - 300 miles

Avoid opening the throttle beyond 1/2 throttle for extended periods of time. Do not open throttle beyond 3/4 throttle.

300 - 500 miles

Avoid opening the throttle beyond 3/4 throttle.

Over 500 miles

Avoid long periods of wide-open throttle operation.

Engine Life

Your engine life is highly dependent upon how you operate and maintain your vehicle.

Your scooter is equipped with a CVT transmission and your engine will operate at maximum RPM when you are at maximum speed at wide-open throttle.

If you operate your scooter at maximum RPM for a long period, you will damage your engine. This is not considered normal operation.

Keep your maximum speed operation to short periods of time. If you are travelling a longer distance, slow or stop your vehicle regularly to allow the engine to cool.

The quality of oil that you use in your vehicle will also determine longevity. Please reference the Engine Oil section in this manual for the proper specification.

CAUTION

Operating your vehicle at wide-open throttle for any long duration generates excessive heat that can damage your engine.

Be aware of the length of full throttle operation and slow down periodically to allow the engine to cool especially in hot climates.

Always use JASO MB 15W-40 engine oil in your vehicle.

Operation

Engine Warm-Up

After engine start, allow the engine to come up to operating temperature by idling the engine for at least 1 minute and then using mild acceleration during the first 3 minutes of operation.

While the engine is warming up, sit on the scooter and adjust the rear-view mirrors to be able to see clearly behind you from both the right and left sides.

Riding

After engine warm up, you are ready to ride. Be sure you have completed the pre-ride checklist before each ride.

Use the throttle for controlling the general speed of your vehicle.

Use the brakes for slowing and stopping your vehicle.

Use the handlebars to control the direction of the vehicle.

Rider inputs will determine the behavior of the vehicle. Make sure you consider the weather, riding surface, traffic and all other circumstances that may alter the amount of time it will take to accelerate, stop and turn your vehicle.

Hold the rear brake lever and push the vehicle forward off the center stand.

Throttle

Gradually turn the throttle to accelerate.

A) Turning the throttle toward your body will increase your speed.
B) Turning the throttle away from your body will decrease speed.

Operation

Braking

You should always be prepared to use your brakes. Unexpected behavior of fellow motorists, road debris, animals and other obstacles can arise without notice. Becoming familiar with and actively covering your brakes while riding can drastically reduce braking distances and improve safety.

Applying the brakes

1. Release the throttle
2. Gradually pull the brake lever(s) toward the handlebar to apply the brake.

Applying both brakes simultaneously will result in a shorter stopping distance than actuating either brake individually.

The right-hand brake lever actuates the front brake.

WARNING

Applying the brake lever abruptly or forcefully can cause the wheel to stop suddenly which can result in a loss of control of your vehicle. This effect is more prominent when the road surface is wet, covered in dirt or other debris, or you are traveling over metal objects. Always maintain acute awareness and full control of the braking force you are applying. Consider all environmental circumstances when braking.

Operation

Engine Stop

To stop the engine, turn ignition key to OFF. (3) Remove the key.

It is not recommended to use the kill switch for normal engine stops. Leave the kill switch in the RUN position under all normal vehicle operation. Use the kill switch for emergency engine stops.

Parking

Park your vehicle with the exhaust facing away from any pedestrian traffic.

Periodic Maintenance

Spark Plug

The spark plug is one of the most important parts of the engine and it is easy to inspect.

The condition and color of your spark plug can provide important clues about the running condition of your engine. The ideal electrode color of a properly running vehicle is light brown. If the spark plug is white or black and wet, there may be a problem with your vehicle that needs to be resolved. Ask your Genuine Scooter Company dealer for assistance.

Standard spark plug: NGK CR6HSA

• Inspect the spark plug electrode. Replace if you see damage or extreme wear to the electrode.
• Clean the surface of the spark plug gently to avoid damage.
• Measure spark plug gap.

Spark plug gap: 0.7 - 0.8mm

- Reinstall spark plug and torque.

Torque: 11.7 N-m (8 ft-lb)

Brake Check

Actuate each brake for inspection. Observe the grooves in the pads. If the groove is gone or nearly gone, your brake pads need to be replaced.

1 Visually determine if the brake pads are worn to the bottom of the groove or measure the pad thickness.

If pad thickness is less than 2mm, replace the brake pads.

2 Visually inspect the brake rotor for scratches, warping, hotspots, or foreign material.

Any significant damage can indicate there is a problem with your brake system. Have your vehicle inspected immediately by an authorized Genuine dealer if any damage is observed.
