nance items to be performed.
Engine Oil Level Check
Follow the procedure below to
inspect the engine oil level.
1. Start the engine and allow it to
idle for a few minutes.
2. Stop the engine and wait
approximately three minutes.
3. Hold the motorcycle vertically
and inspect the engine oil level
through the engine oil level
inspection window. The engine
oil level should be between the

CAUTION
The engine oil level must be

The context does not specifically mention the exact location of the idle screw on a Suzuki VL800. However, it does mention the air-fuel mixture screw, which is often adjusted to improve engine performance. A sluggish-running bike could be caused by an improper air-fuel mixture, clogged fuel lines, worn spark plugs, or incorrect carburetor settings.
