NOTICE
Use of a new chain with worn sprockets will cause
rapid chain wear.
#
Cleaning and Lubricating
After inspecting the slack, clean the chain and
sprockets while rotating the rear wheel. Use a
dry cloth with chain cleaner designed
specifically for O-ring chains, or neutral
detergent. Use a soft brush if the chain is dirty.
After cleaning, wipe dry and lubricate with the
recommended lubricant.
Recommended lubricant:
Pro Honda HP Chain Lube or equivalent
Do not use a steam cleaner, a high pressure
cleaner, a wire brush, volatile solvent such as
gasoline and benzene, abrasive cleaner, chain
cleaner or lubricant NOT designed specifically
for O-ring chains as these can damage the
rubber O-ring seals.
Avoid getting lubricant on the brakes or tires.
Avoid applying excess chain lubricant to prevent
spray onto your clothes and the motorcycle.
Recommended Coolant
Pro Honda HP Coolant is a pre-mixed solution
of antifreeze and distilled water.
Concentration:
50% antifreeze and 50% distilled water
A concentration of antifreeze below 40% will
not provide proper corrosion and cold
temperature protection.
A concentration of up to 60% will provide better
protection in colder climates.
