event of a malfunction or failure, determining whether or not the failure represents a defect in
materials or workmanship in the manufacture of the motorcycle or represents a failure due to a
lack of maintenance or improper maintenance may be an issue. Do not take shortcuts! Do not
neglect recommended maintenance! Document the maintenance you do!
I do not recommend that any owner perform the initial (600 mile) service on a motorcycle.
More than maintenance is involved at this step. This is the dealers opportunity to fully inspect
the motorcycle after its initial use to detect anything which appears abnormal or defective in
assembly or adjustment. Even experienced owner/mechanics usually lack the specific
knowledge about their new bike to reliably perform this inspection. I do practice what I preach.
Engle Motors in Kansas City has always done the initial service on our new bikes.
Lets look at the R1100 service requirements. This information is drawn primarily from the
R1100RS/GS Repair Manual. There may be additional minor items specified for the R/RT
models. Consult your dealer.
MINOR SERVICE:
Oil and Oil Filter: Drain the oil warm. Allow the engine plenty of time to drain. The oil is slow
to drain down (and out). Find the oil filter - recessed at the left front bottom of the engine case.
Remove the oil filter with the special oil filter wrench. Be careful not to allow spilled oil to burn
your hand or arm. Fill the new filter with oil. Keep track of the amount of oil poured into the
filter. Lightly oil the filter gasket. Tighten the filter finger tight and then 1/4 turn additional
rotation. Add new oil to the engine. I add 3.5 quarts including the oil poured into the new filter.
After a few minutes it may require one or two additional ounces of oil. Fill to the dot on the
sight glass. Filling above the dot on the site glass appears to increase oil consumption and is
not recommended.
Adjust Valves: The specifications for the valve adjustment are .006 inch (.15mm) intakes and
.012 inch (.30mm) exhausts. Each cylinder has two of each type valve. Remove the front
cover. Remove the spark plug connector. Use compressed air to blow the bugs and rocks out
of the spark plug recess. Remove the valve covers. Set the engine to top dead center by
centering the OTtiming mark visible in the timing port on the right side of the engine. You
will, of course, need to remove the rubber plug from the timing port in the side of the block.
Find the cylinder with free-play in both valves at TDC. The rocker arms are forked to actuate
both valves with a single pushrod. For precise adjustment, you should use two feeler gauges
at the same time to eliminate any error from slight rocker arm tilt along the shaft. Loosen the
locknuts and adjust the gap using a small allen wrench in the screw adjuster. Adjust so that
there is light drag on the feeler gauge at the specified gap, and so that the next larger sized
feeler gauge will not insert into the gap. For example, adjust each intake valve so there is light
drag on the .006feeler gauge and so that the .007feeler will not insert into the gap. Rotate
the engine exactly 360 degrees to TDC again. Adjust the valves for the other cylinder.
Before refitting the valve covers, remove and thoroughly clean all the oil off the gaskets and
their mating surfaces. Installing oily gaskets will cause oil to continue to weep past the
gaskets.
