Kawasaki 650R Motorcycle User Manual


 
Foreword
In order to ship Kawasaki vehicles as effi-
ciently as possible, they are partially disassem-
bled before crating. Since some of the most
commonly removed parts have a direct bear-
ing on a vehicle’s reliability and safety, consci-
entious pre-sale assembly and preparation be-
comes extremely important. Good setup pro-
cedures can prevent needless warranty claims
and give customers a greater sense of confi-
dence in Kawasaki and their Kawasaki Dealers.
This Assembly and Preparation Manual ex-
plains step by step procedures of the following
items for the Kawasaki Ninja 650R, ER-6f and
ER-6f ABS.
1. Uncrating
2. Assembly
3. Preparation
The selling dealer assumes sole responsibil-
ity for any unauthorized modifications prior to
sale. Refer to your Service Binder for any Ser-
vice Bulletins specifying Factory Directed Mod-
ifications (Special Claims) which must be per-
formed before the vehicle is ready for sale.
