Warning!
- Make sure the motorcycle is stabilised and adequately supported.
- A correctly supported motorcycle will help prevent it from falling.
- An unstable motorcycle may fall, causing injury to the operator or damage to the motorcycle.
Warning! If the fuel rail is dismantled without first reducing pressure, fuel may escape causing clothing and components to be coated with fuel. This would represent a serious fire hazard which could lead to burn injuries and damage to property.
Note: Because fuel stored in the fuel rail will be at 3.5 bar pressure, it is essential that the fuel pressure is reduced before any dismantling of the fuel rail takes place. To reduce pressure, briefly crank the engine with the fuel pump disconnected.
Perform the following operations:
1. Disconnect the throttle position sensor multiplug.
2. Disconnect the fuel injector multiplugs.
3. Disconnect the throttle actuator motor multiplug.
4. Detach the fuel line from the fuel rail.
5. Release the clips securing the throttle bodies to the transition pieces.
