Suzuki GSX-R 1000 Service Manual: Battery
- Battery connection in reverse polarity is strictly prohibited. Such a wrong connection will damage the components of the fi system instantly when reverse power is applied.
- Removing any battery terminal of a running engine is strictly prohibited. The moment such removal is made, damaging counter electromotive force will be applied to the electronic unit which may result in serious damage.
- Before measuring voltage at each terminal, check to
make sure that battery voltage is 11 v or higher.
Terminal voltage check with a low battery voltage will lead to erroneous diagnosis.
- Never connect any tester (voltmeter, ohmmeter, or whatever) to the electronic unit when its coupler is disconnected. Otherwise, damage to electronic unit may result.
- Never connect an ohmmeter to the electronic unit with its coupler connected. If attempted, damage to ecm or sensors may result.
- Be sure to use a specified voltmeter/ohmmeter.
Otherwise, accurate measurements may not be obtained and personal injury may result.
Electrical circuit inspection procedure
While there are various methods for electrical circuit inspection, described here is a general method to check for open and short circuit using an ohmmeter and a voltmeter.
Ecm / various sensors
Since each component is a high-precision part, great
care should be taken not to apply any severe impacts
during removal and installation.
Be careful not to touch the electrical termi ...
Open circuit check
Possible causes for the open circuit are as follows. As
the cause can exist in the connector/coupler or terminal,
they need to be checked carefully.
Loose connection of connector/coupler.

Tire pressure and loading
Proper tire pressure and proper
tire loading are important factors.
Overloading your tires can lead to
tire failure and loss of vehicle control.
Check tire pressure each day
before you ride, and be sure the
pressure is correct for the vehicle
load according to the table below.
