D . and tighten the bolts to the specified torque

1 Make sure the engine oil level and coolant level are correct (see Daily (pre-ride) checks). Turn the fuel tap to the OFF position.

2 Pull the plug caps off the spark plugs and insert a spare spark plug into each cap. Position the spare plugs so that their bodies are earthed (grounded) against the engine. Turn on the ignition switch and crank the engine over with the starter until the oil pressure warning light goes off (which indicates that oil pressure exists). Turn off the ignition. Remove the spare spark plugs and reconnect the plug caps.

4 Start the engine and allow t to run at a moderately fast idle until it reaches operating temperature.

Warning: If the oil pressure indicator light doesn't go off, or it comes on while the engine is running, stop the engine immediately.

5 Check carefully for oil and coolant leaks
and make sure the transmission and controls,
especially the brakes, function properly
before road testing the machine. Refer to

Section 32 for the recommended running-in

procedure.

6 Upon completion of the road test, and after

the engine has cooled down completely,

recheck the valve clearances (see Chapter 1)

and check the engine oil and coolant levels

(see Dally (pre-ride) checks).

32 Recommended running-in procedure

1 Treat the machine gently for the first few miles to make sure oil has circulated

throughout the engine and any new parts installed have started to seat.

2 Even greater care is necessary if new pistons/rings or new crankshaft or connecting rod bearings have been installed. This means greater use of the transmission and a restraining hand on the throttle until at least 600 miles (1000 km) have been covered. There's no point in keeping to any set speed limit - the main idea is to keep from labouring the engine and to gradually increase performance up to the 600 mile (1000 km) mark. These recommendations can be lessened to an extent when only a new crankshaft is installed. Experience is the best guide, since it's easy to tell when an engine is running freely. The accompanying table showing maximum engine speed limitations. which Honda provide for new motorcycles, can be used as a guide.

3 If a lubrication failure is suspected, stop the engine immediately and try to find the cause. If an engine is run without oil, even for a short period of time, severe damage will occur.
