Reassembly is a direct reversal of the
foregoing. Take care to reconnect the wiring
correctly. If necessary consult the wiring diagram
at the end of this section.

CHANGING A CAPACITOR (1970 Models)
|
|
|
|
The capacitors are screwed individually to the
coil clips and are accessible from beneath without
disturbing the coils.

SPARK PLUGS - CHAMPION N7Y
|
|
|
|
Protruding nose self-cleaning spark plugs are
fitted. It is most important to use the correct
heat grade since a spark plug of too low heat grade
can cause pre ignition and subsequent damage to the
engine.
|
|
|
|
To avoid damage to the insulator, use the plug
spanner provided in the tool kit to remove and
refit the spark plugs. The spark plugs should be
tightened firmly (not excessively) to ensure a gas
tight joint.
|
|
|
|
When adjusting the gap to the recommended
setting of .028 in. (.59/.72 mm), only the side
contact must be adjusted. Under no circumstances
attempt to bend the centre electrode to adjust the
gap.

LIGHTING SYSTEM (1971 and later Models)
|
|
|
|
The lighting system operates on direct current
drawn from the battery (or from the rectifier where
the 2MC capacitor replaces the battery) and
controlled by the 4 position master switch
(described in Section J10). As the master switch is
turned to the "lights on" position, the tail lamp,
instrument lights and pilot lamp illuminate.
Selection of headlamp illumination is controlled by
the switch in the top of the headlamp shell.
Headlamp high beam or dip beam are selected by the
two position switch included in the handlebar right
switch cluster. When high beam is selected, a
warning light in the headlamp shell illuminates.
|
|
|
LIGHTING SYSTEM (1970 Models)
|
|
|
|
The lighting system operates on direct current
drawn from the battery and controlled by the 3
position toggle switch in the headlamp shell. Left
position is "off", centre position is "pilot
lights", and right position is main beam.
|
|
|
|
When high beam is selected, the warning light in
the headlamp shell illuminates.

HEAD LAMP
|
|
|
TO CHANGE THE HEADLAMP AND PILOT BULBS
|
|
|
|
Release the screw on top of the headlamp shell
adjacent to the rim. The rim with light unit can
then be lifted out from the top first. Press down
the main bulb holder towards the reflector and
rotate counter clock wise. The holder will lift
away and the bulb can be removed.
|
|
|
|
The pilot bulbholder complete with pilot bulb
should be pulled away from the light unit. The bulb
is a bayonet fitting into the bulbholder.
|
|
|
|
Note: Do not touch a quartz halogen bulb
envelope with the fingers. Accidental marks can be
removed with alcohol.
|

SECTION J17
|
|
|
TO CHANGE THE TAIL/STOPLAMP BULB
|
|
|
|
The lens is secured by two bright plated screws.
Release these and lift away the lens and thin
gasket. The bulb is a bayonet fitting into the
bulbholder. Note that the bulb will only fit the
correct way into the bulbholder on reassembly. Take
care not to crack the lens by overtightening the
screws.
