B649G10000003

When handling the electrical parts or servicing the ABS system, observe the following points for the safety of the system.

Electrical Parts

Connector / Coupler

•When connecting a connector, be sure to push it in until a click is felt.

I310G1000001-01

•With a lock type coupler, be sure to release the lock when disconnecting, and push it in fully till the lock works when connecting it.

•When disconnecting the coupler, be sure to hold the coupler body and do not pull the lead wires.

•Inspect each terminal on the connector/couplerfor looseness or bending.

•Inspect each terminal for corrosion and contamination. The terminals must be clean andfree of any foreign material which could impede proper terminal contact.

I310G1000002-01

•Inspect each lead wire circuit for poor connection by shaking it by hand lightly. If any abnormal condition is found, repair or replace.

I310G1000003-01

•When taking measurements at electrical connectors using a tester probe, be sure to insert the probefrom the wire harness side (backside) of the connector/ coupler.

I649G1000013-01

•When connecting meter probe from the terminal side of the coupler (connection from harness side not being possible), use extra care not to force and cause the male terminal to bend or the female terminal to open. Connect the probe as shown to avoid opening of female terminal. Never push in the probe where male terminal is supposed to fit.

•The ABS control unit/HU cannot bedisassembled. Replace the whole unit with a new one.

I649G1000005-01

•Battery connection in reverse polarity is strictly prohibited. Such a wrong connection will damage the components of the ABS control unit/HU instantly when reverse power is applied.

I649G1000006-01

•Removing any battery terminal of a running engine is strictly prohibited. The moment such removal is made, damaging counter electromotive force will be applied to the Ignition unit and ABS control unit/HU which may result in serious damage.

I310G1000011-01

•Before measuring voltage at each terminal, check to make sure that battery voltage is 11 V or higher. Terminal voltage check at low battery voltage will lead to erroneous diagnosis.

I310G1000012-01

•Never connect any tester (voltmeter, ohmmeter, or whatever) to the Ignition and ABS control unit/HU when its coupler is disconnected. Otherwise, damage to Ignitor and ABS control unit/HU may result.

•Never connect an ohmmeter to the Ignitor and ABS control unit/HU with its coupler connected. If attempted, damage to Ignitor and ABS control unit/HU or sensors may result.

•Be sure to use a specifiedvoltmeter/ohmmeter. Otherwise, accurate measurements may notbe obtained and personal injury may result.

Electrical Circuit Inspection Procedure

While there are various methods for electrical circuit inspection, described here is a general method to check for open and short circuit using an ohmmeter and a voltmeter.

Open circuit check

Possible causes for the open circuit are as follows. As the cause can exist in the connector/coupler or terminal, they need to be checked carefully.

•Loose connection of connector/coupler

•Poor contact of terminal (due to dirt, corrosion or rust, poor contact tension, entry of foreign object etc.)

•Wire harness being open.

•Poor terminal-to-wire connection.

When checking system circuits including an electronic control unit such as ignitor, ABS control unit/HU, etc., it is important to perform careful check, starting with items which are easier to check.

1)Disconnect the negative (–) cable from the battery.

2)Check each connector/coupler at both ends of the circuit being checked for loose connection. Also check for condition of the coupler lock ifequipped.

“A”

I649G1000026-01

3)Using a test male terminal, check the female terminals of the circuit being checked for contact tension.

Check each terminal visually for poor contact (possibly caused by dirt, corrosion, rust, entry of foreign object, etc.). At the same time, check to make sure that each terminal is fully inserted in the coupler and locked.

If contact tension is not enough, rectify the contact to increase tension or replace. The terminals must be clean and free of any foreign material which could impede proper terminal contact.

Voltage check

If voltage is supplied to the circuit being checked, voltage check can be used as circuit check.

1)With all connectors/couplers connected andvoltage applied to the circuit being checked, measure voltage between each terminal and bodyground.

2)If measurements were taken as shown in figureat the right and results are as listed below, it means that the circuit is open between terminals “A” and “B”.

Voltage between

“A” and body ground: Approx. 5V “B” and body ground: Approx. 5V “C” and body ground: 0 V

3)Also, if measured values are as listed below, a resistance (abnormality) exists which causes the voltage drop in the circuit between terminals “A” and “B”.

Voltage between

“A” and body ground: Approx. 5 V

“B” and body ground: Approx. 5 V – 2 V voltage drop

“C” and body ground: 3 V – 2 V voltage drop

Front Fork Oil

Use fork oil SS8 or an equivalent fork oil.

BREAK-IN Procedures

B649G10101007

During manufacture only the best possible materials are used and all machined parts are finished to a very high standard but it is still necessary to allow the moving parts to “BREAK-IN” before subjecting the engine to maximum stresses. The future performance and reliability of the engine depends on the care and restraint exercised during its early life. The general rules are asfollows.

1)Keep to these break-in engine speed limits:

Speed limits

Initial 800 km: Below 5 500 r/min Up to 1 600 km: Below 8 000 r/min Over 1 600 km: Below 11 000 r/min

2)Upon reaching an odometer reading of 1 600 km (1 000 miles) you can subject the motorcycle to full throttle operation. However, do not exceed 11 000r/ min at any time.

Clean and lubricate the drive chain in the following procedures:

1)Clean the drive chain with kerosine. If the drive chain tends to rust quickly, the intervals must be shortened.

! CAUTION

Do not use trichloroethylene, gasoline or any similar solvent.

These fluids have too great a dissolving power for this chain and they can damage the O-rings. Use only kerosine to clean the drive chain.

2)After cleaning and drying the chain, oil it witha heavyweight motor oil.

!CAUTION

•Do not use any oil sold commercially as “drive chain oil”. Such oil can damagethe O-rings.

•The standard drive chain is a RK GB50GSVZ3. SUZUKI recommends to use this standard drive chain as a replacement.

000 km (4 000 miles, 12 months) thereafter.

Inspect brake hose and brake fluid Every 6 000 km (4 000 miles, 12 months)

Replace brake hose Every 4 years

Replace brake fluid Every 2 years

!WARNING

•The brake system of this motorcycle is filled with a glycol-based brake fluid. Do not use or mix different types of fluid such as silicone-based and petroleum-based fluids. Do not use any brake fluid taken from old, used or unsealed containers. Never reuse brake fluid left over from the last servicing or stored for a long period of time.

•Brake fluid, if it leaks, will interfere with safe running and immediately discolor painted surfaces. Check the brake hoses and hose joints for cracks and oilleakage before riding.

Brake Fluid Level Check

1)Keep the motorcycle upright and placethe handlebars straight.

2)Check the brake fluid level by observing the lower limit lines on the front and rear brake fluid reservoirs. When the brake fluid level is below the lower limit line, replenish with brake fluid that meets the following specification.
