Cleaning the Air Filter It is a good idea to occasionally clean the air filter to insure optimum performance. To clean the air filter: 1. Using a Philips head screwdriver, remove the carburetor cover by turning the cover screw counter-clockwise. (Fig.10). 2.
The XG-470 uses both front wheel and rear wheel Hub Brake systems activated by hand levers (on either side of the handlebar). Squeezing the BRAKE LEVER with your left hand activates the rear brake, and squeezing the BRAKE LEVER with your right hand activates the front brake. Make sure to release the THROTTLE GRIP when engaging the brakes.
Squeaky Brakes The brakes may squeak until they are broken in. This is normal and will not affect the function or performance of the brakes. With continued use the squeak should go away. TIRE AND WHEELS Tire Pressure The tire must be inflated to a maximum of 50 P.S.I. It is also recommended to use a tube additive like Slime purchasable from any motorcycle shop, to avoid inconvenient punctures.
ADJUSTING THE CHAIN The chain will come adjusted from the factory. However, it may be necessary to adjust the sprockets from time to time. The chain must be well aligned onto the sprockets in order to avoid uneven wear. This will result in shortened chain life.
