The excs is operated by the signal supplied from the ecm. The open/close operation of the excv is performed by the excva which is controlled by the ecm by changing the current direction of the actuator motor. The position sensor (incorporated in the excva) detects the excva movement by measuring the voltage and then the ecm determines the excv opening angle based on the engine rpm and gear positions. Every time the ignition switch is turned on, the excva automatically drives the excv and detects full close/open position voltages and sets the excv to middle position.

It is important to take good care of
your motorcycle to protect it from
corrosion and keep it looking new
for years to come.

Piston and piston ring inspection
Refer to “piston ring removal and installation” .
Piston diameter
Measure the piston diameter using the micrometer at 15
mm (0.6 In) “a” from the skirt end. If the piston diameter
is less than the service limit, replace the piston.

Break-in procedures
During manufacture only the best possible materials are
used and all machined parts are finished to a very high
standard but it is still necessary to allow the moving parts
to “break-in” before subjecting the engine to maximum
stresses. The future performance and reliability of the
engine depen ...
