 Driving essentials

Warning / Attention
1. If you are driving a new motorcycle for the first time, we recommend that you find a non-public road where you can
practice riding until you are familiar with the controls and method of operating the motorcycle.

2. One-handed driving is the most dangerous. Keep your hands firmly and keep your feet on your feet. Under no
circumstances should you drive with your hands.

3. Do not shift gears while cornering, and reduce the speed to safe speed before turning.

4. The road surface is damp and smooth, and the tire friction is small. The braking capacity and cornering ability are
naturally reduced, so it is necessary to slow down beforehand.

5. Crosswinds are usually the easiest to occur at the exit of a tunnel. When passing through a valley or a large vehicle that
is overtaken by the rear, you must be careful and slow down.

6. Follow the traffic rules and speed limit.

 Run-in Procedure
The first 1,500 kilometers on the motorcycle is the “Run-in” period. Adhering to the correct Run-In Procedure during this
period is a CRITICAL element in ensuring the optimum reliability, performance and longevity of your motorcycle.

The principal elements are to allow the engine to “warm up” sufficiently before use, avoid over revving the engine, avoid
over loading the engine, shift slowly and smoothly through the gears, vary engine speeds and travel speeds regularly and
strictly limit the top travel and engine speeds. This is especially important during the first 500 Km, after which the run-in
variables may be progressively increased until your motorcycle is fully run-in at 1,500 Km.

See “Run-In procedure on your Hunter Flash Disc for more details. If you are unsure about any aspect of the procedure,
consult with your Hunter dealer BEFORE using your motorcycle.

Warning / Attention
Conducting the proper Run-In of your motorcycle is critical to allow all moving parts to become properly conditioned and
ultimately effects the integrity of the motorcycle. Not following this procedure may cause serious damage to the
motorcycle and cause the warranty to be null and void

Note: After driving 1500km, the motorcycle can be operated normally however, you should not every exceed 9,000 RPM or
exceed the legal speed.
.
If you are unclear or do not completely understand the Run-In procedure requirements, please consult with your Hunter
Dealer before operating the motorcycle.

Fuel Filling
When filling the fuel tank please ensure :
1. The capacity of the fuel tank is 20 liters. Do not over fill the tank.
2. Always ensure that the engine and ignition switch are turned off before filling the fuel tank.
3. Only use PERTANAX or other unleaded fuel with an octane rating of 95 or greater.

 Gear Shifting

1. With the engine at idle speed and the clutch disengaged (clutch lever
depressed), step on the gear shift lever and push it downwards to shift
into 1st gear.
2. Gradually increase the engine speed and slowly release the clutch lever.
These two actions must be coordinated simultaneously to ensure a
smooth take off.
3. When the motorcycle reaches the appropriate speed, reduce the throttle
and depress the clutch simultaneously, lift the gearshift lever upwards
with your toe to shift into 2nd gear. Slowly release the clutch whilst
simultaneously increasing the engine speed. Gear Shift Lever
4. Repeat this process from shifting up into higher gears or downwards into
lower gears.

Warning while driving

1. Avoid unnecessary engine idling.
2. Riding with the clutch partially depressed will cause excessive clutch wear.
3. When decreasing speed or riding up an incline, shift to a lower gear in order that you do not place the engine under
excessive load.

Warning / Attention
1. As you increase you speed of travel, the braking distance must be lengthened accordingly. Always maintain enough
distance between you and the vehicle in front of you to allow sufficient distance for safe braking.
2. It is very dangerous to use the front brake and the rear brake separately (independently). Doing so can cause the
wheels to skid and loss of control. Take extra care when braking on wet or smooth roads and in corners. A sudden
braking on uneven or smooth roads can cause the motorcycle to lose control.

16
 ABS System
Component:
The ABS unit consists of a hydraulic control unit, an ECU control unit and a motor. A wheel speed sensor is mounted on
the front and rear wheels.

Brief introduction to the brake system principle:

The brake system uses disc brakes, so the front and rear wheel brakes are equipped with ABS function. In normal
operation mode, the brake system functions the same as the brake system without ABS. Only when the wheel tends to
lock, this information is fed back to the ABS control unit through the wheel speed sensor, and the ABS will recognize the
brake pressure to start working. This adjustment can be felt by a slight jump on the brake hand lever or brake pedal.

Warning light:
After the ignition switch is turned on, the ABS warning light is on. When the first riding speed is over than 5km, after the
self-test, the alarm light is off, and then in the same ignition cycle, if there is no abnormality, the alarm light remains off,
and the ABS works normally. If the ABS is constantly lit during driving (≥5km/h), or suddenly lights up during driving, there
is a fault in the ABS. At this time, ABS cannot be activated normally, ABS function is invalid, and maintenance is
recommended. But the brake system itself still works, but the ABS adjustment system is out of order.

17
4. Inspection, adjustment, and maintenance

EFI
The main function of the EFI system is to atomize the fuel supplied from the fuel tank and mix it with air to form a
uniform mixture and inject it into the combustion chamber. The electric spray system is mainly composed of an
electronic control unit (ECU), a nozzle, a throttle body Assy., a sensor, an oil pump Assy., an oxygen sensor and etc.
The EFI system can precisely control the mixing ratio of air and fuel entering the engine cylinder, combustion process
and exhaust gas conversion to optimize engine performance, improve drivability, and more strictly control the exhaust
gas from the motorcycle to the air pollution.

Structure diagram

18
 EFI Principles
The engine EFI system controls and adjusts various control objects according to engine operating conditions. Such as: fuel
quantity, ignition timing, excessive working condition compensation, idle speed and so on.Engine operating conditions are
generally divided into: starting conditions, idle conditions, stable operating conditions, excessive operating conditions and
heavy load conditions.

When the engine is in the starting condition, the basic fuel injection amount required by the engine is calculated by
sampling the engine block temperature, the intake air temperature and the pressure, etc., and the driving circuit drives the
injector and the idle speed control valve to operate, and according to the battery Signals such as voltage, atmospheric
pressure, and start-up duration are constantly being corrected.

When the engine is in idling condition, according to the engine temperature, different idle target speeds are set, and the
intake air amount is controlled and adjusted by the idle speed control valve, and then the current speed is corrected by
controlling the ignition advance angle and the idle speed control valve. Target speed deviation.

When the engine is in stable condition (ie, normal working condition), the current engine speed and current load are
calculated by sampling the crank position sensor and the intake pressure sensor, and the basic fuel injection amount and
basic are obtained according to the speed and load information. Ignition advance angle, and then by sampling each sensor
signal and obtaining information such as oxygen sensor voltage, cylinder temperature, intake air temperature, battery
voltage, etc., to correct the basic fuel injection amount and ignition advance angle to obtain the final fuel injection amount
and ignition. The advance angle data is then used to command the drive circuit to drive the injector and the ignition coil to
control the operation of the engine. When the engine is in excessive working condition, the current working condition
information, such as sudden acceleration, sudden deceleration, slow acceleration, etc., is calculated by sampling the
engine load and the throttle position, and the basic quantity and correction calculated in the steady state condition are
determined. Increase the excessive working condition compensation after the quantity.

When the engine is under heavy load conditions, the current speed, load, throttle position, catalyst temperature, etc. are
sampled, and the mixture is enriched according to the calculation to meet the performance requirements and the three-
way catalytic converter protection.

19
 Spark plug inspection

1. Open the spark plug cap and use a spark plug wrench to unscrew the spark plug.
2. Clean the spark plug. If the spark plug is corroded or there is too much deposit, replace the spark plug.
3. The spark plug gap is adjusted to 0.8mm-0.9mm.
4. Please use the specified spark plug CPR8EA-9 (NGK).

Warning / Attention
1. Spark plugs must not be over tightened or cross-threaded to avoid damaging the threads of the cylinder. When
removing the spark plug, do not allow impurities to enter the engine through the spark plug hole.
2. The spark plugs for this type of motorcycle are carefully selected to suit most of the working range. If the color of the
spark plug is not the same as the standard spark plug, it is best to consult with your Hunter dealer before replacing the
spark plug with different heat resistance range, because the selection of the improper spark plug will cause serious
damage to the engine and can cause your Warranty to be null and void.

Air cleaner inspection

For the special air filter, the exhaust nozzle is installed to improve the air flow and filtration efficiency. The exhaust nozzle
is connected to the engine crankcase, so that the crankcase exhaust gas enters the combustion chamber through the filter
and burns again without being directly discharged into the atmosphere. Remove the air filter to check for
contamination.(Disassembly) Remove the end cover of the air filter, and pull out the screw to disassemble the air filter.
Replace with a new air filter and reassemble.

Note: The filter element of the assembled air filter should be in good condition, otherwise the engine will absorb dust and
dirt and shorten the service life of the engine. Avoid water in the air filter when washing the motorcycle. Do not use
gasoline or a low-burning cleaning agent to clean the filter element.
20
 Oil inspection
Always check the oil before driving. When checking the oil, stop the
motorcycle on the Double Stand on a flat surface and wait for at
least 1 minute, then view the oil level in the oil sight hole glass. The
oil level should be between the minimum and maximum lines.

Only use high quality oil of the correct SG and its grade.
Use 10W/30 in winter and 15W/40 in summer.

Oil change

The oil should be replaced in the following order when the engine is hot:
Oil Sight Glass.
1. Place the motorcycle on the Double Stand on a flat surface.
2. Place a tray under the engine and unscrew the oil pan screw from the oil pan and release the oil into the tray.
3. Screw out the Fine Oil Filter and clean it.
4. Re-install the fine oil filter, tighten the oil drain plug, and add new oil via the filler port.
5. Start the engine and let it idle for a few seconds.
6. Turn off the engine and wait for about one minute to check the oil level through the Oil Sight Glass. When checking the
oil level, the motorcycle should be horizontal and vertical. If the oil level is below the lower line, add more oil until the
level is between the minimum and maximum lines.
7. The total volume of oil from empty to full is 2700ml.

21
 Check and adjust throttle operation

1. Check the hand throttle handle to ensure that it rotates

smoothly and freely from fully closed to fully open and
Lower Lock Nut Upper Lock Nut
returns freely.

2. Check the hand throttle handle free travel. The standard

free travel distance is about (3 ~ 5) mm of free rotation.
(The free stroke adjustment method is: loosen the upper
and lower lock nuts of the throttle cable, then adjust the
throttle cable adjusting nut until the free travel is correct
and then re-tighten the throttle cable lock nut).

3. Check the throttle cable for visible damage. Replace if

damaged.

4. Place one drop of oil onto the feral at the injection end of
the throttle cable

5. Note: After adjustment, please start the engine check and

rotate the handle bars fully from one side to the other.
Ensure that the cable is not pulling on the throttle Adjusting nut Lock nut
(increasing RPM) when the handle bars rotate. If rotating
the handle bars effects the RPM, re-adjust (increase) the
free travel in the cable. If after increasing the free travel,
rotating the handle bars still effects the RPM, the cable
either require re-routing or replacing.

22
 Check and adjust valve clearance

The correct valve clearance if critical for the optimum and safe operation of the engine. Minor incorrect value adjustment
will cause poor performance and loss of power. Major incorrect valve adjustment can cause serious damage to the engine.
Therefore, the valve check must be checked regularly.
The inspection and adjustment of the valve clearance should be carried out when the engine is cold. The inspection and
adjustment methods are as follows:
1. Remove the cylinder head cover.
2. Unscrew the viewport cover on the right crankcase cover and use a 14mm socket wrench to turn the crankshaft
clockwise so that the piston reaches the top dead center of the compression stroke (turn the crankshaft until the T
engraved line and the right crankcase cover on the primary drive tooth) The timing mark gap at the edge of the hole
cover is aligned, and the "IN" and "EX" lines of the driven sprocket end of the camshaft are parallel to the cylinder head
cover mounting surface.
3. Insert the standard feeler gauge between the exhaust valve adjustment washer and the exhaust rocker arm to measure
the clearances. The exhaust valve clearance standard is 0.27±0.03mm.
4. If the valve clearance is not within the above range, remove the hexagon socket head bolt on the side of the cylinder
head, screw it into the threaded hole of the rocker shaft with M6 long bolt, pull out the rocker arm shaft, make the
valve rocker arm retreat, and then use the suction iron. The rod is sucked out of the adjusting gasket, and the
appropriate valve adjusting gasket is replaced to adjust the valve clearance within the specified range.
5. After adjusting the exhaust valve clearance, continue to rotate the crankshaft 180°clockwise. At this time, the “IN”
and “EX” markings of the camshaft sprocket end face are exactly perpendicular to the cylinder head cover mounting
surface, and then adjust the intake valve in the same way.
6. The intake valve clearance should be 0.16±0.03mm. Finally continue to rotate the crankshaft to the timing position to
re-measure the intake and exhaust valve clearance.
7. When all valves are set to the correct clearance, install the hexagon socket screw and tighten the torque 13-17N*m.
8. Reinstall the cylinder head cover, depending on the hole cover.
Valve cap
Warning / Attention
Valv e c learance adjustment should only be done by an experienced,
competent mechanic. Valve adjustment done by anyone other than an
authorized Hunter service center will cause your Warranty to be null and void.
23
 Clutch lever adjustment

Adjusting the clutch should be done with the engine off.

The free travel in the clutch lever should be between 10 –

15mm. To adjust :
1. Loosen the lock nut on the clutch line and adjust the
clutch lever to the specified amount of free travel.
2. If a large range of adjustment is required, adjust the clutch
adjustment stud on the right cover of the engine.
3. If there is insufficient adjustment available, the clutch
cable may require replacing. Consult with your Hunter
dealer.

After adjustment, start the engine and confirm that the clutch
is working properly. If the adjusted clutch is slippery or not
sufficiently disengaging the clutch to allow the gears to be
easily engaged, it needs to be re-adjusted.

24
 Inspect Front Brake

The front brake of this motorcycle is disc type configuration, which has the
advantages of stable braking performance, safety, reliability, labor saving and good
heat dissipation.

The travel of hand front brake hand lever should be between 1- - 20mm. If the
travel is greater than this, adjustment is

Check the fluid level of the master cylinder fluid reservoir via the sight glass. The
fluid lever should be between the upper and lower limit. If the fluid level is below
Brake Lever
the lower limit, add new brake fluid to bring the level to the upper limit mark.

Danger: Sight Glass

1. ONLY USE DOT4 BRAKE FLUID.
2. When the front brake handle is soft or slack, it indicates that there is air in the
hydraulic brake system and the air MUST be removed from the system.
3. Brake fluid can not be mixed. Different DOT rating and different brands of brake
fluid can not be mixed, otherwise the performance of hydraulic brakes will be
seriously compromised.
4. Always use new, freshly opened Brake fluid. NEVER re-use brake fluid or fluid
that has been opened for any period of time.
25
 Inspect the Rear Brake

1. The free travel of the rear brake pedal can be

adjusted by the adjusting nut at the brake ram, so
that the free travel of the rear brake pedal is the
standard value. After the pedal is braked several
times, then release and rotate the rear wheel
assembly to ensure that the rear wheel rotates
freely.

2. When the brake pedal handle is soft or slack, it

indicates that there is air in the hydraulic brake
system and the air MUST be removed from the
system.

3. Remove the rear brake disc and check the wear of

the brake discs. If the thickness is less than the
maintenance limit of 2.0mm, it should be replaced.

4. The standard distance of the rear brake pedal

stroke is 20mm-30mm.

Warning / Attention
The incorrect adjustment or failure of the braking system can be
extremely dangerous and could result in serious accident, damage
or injury.
When ever you have adjusted the brakes, ensure that you test that
the brakes are functioning on a quite section of road, away from
traffic, before proceeding to normal 26
 Horn adjustment

After the motorcycle has been running for a while, the horn fixing nut and adjusting screw may become loose. If this
happens, the electric horn may fail to function properly. Check that the horn is functioning correctly before very ride.
If the horn fails to make the correct sound, you need to adjust the horn fixing nut and adjust the the screws for

 Tire inspection

Check the tires regularly. Be sure to check the air pressure and depth of the tire tread as well as inspect for cracks and
visible damage to the tire. The correct tire pressure is critical to ensure the safe operation of th motorcycle and maximum
service life of the tire.

Tire Pressure

Insufficient tire pressure not only accelerates tire wear, but also seriously affects driving stability. Insufficient air pressure
makes turning difficult; however, if the air pressure is too high, the contact area of the tire is reduced, and it is easy to slip
and lose control. The tire must be kept within the specified limits.

* Front wheel pressure: 200KPa-220kpa

* Rear wheel pressure: 220kpa-250KPa

Tire Specification
Front tire specifications: 110/80-19
Rear tire specifications: 150/70-17
