* Should be serviced by your authorized Honda dealer, unless the owner has proper
tools and service data and is mechanically qualified
** In the interests of safety, we recommend these items be serviced only by your
authorized Honda dealer
NOTES:
1. At higher odometer readings, repeat at the frequency interval established
here
2. Service more frequently when riding in usually wet or dusty areas
3. Replace every 2 years, or at indicated odometer interval, whichever comes first.
Replacement requires mechanical skill
4. SW, AR and IIG type only (not Australia)
The following is my opinion only;
- Use mineral oil at first then change to full synthetic at 6000 km (not before)
- Change the oil and filter every 6000 km
- Get your Honda dealer to do the 1000, 6000 and 12000 km services then get the dealer
to just do the 24000, 36000 services etc
- Do the intermediate services (18000, 30000 etc) yourself
Above assumes you can change the oil and filter, change air filter, bleed brake fluid,
check brake pad thicknesses, check chain and sprocket wear.
Not a big job; get someone to show you the first time if you are new then you should
be able to do it yourself next time.
