Suzuki GSX-R 1000 Service Manual: Voltage check
If voltage is supplied to the circuit being checked, voltage check can be used as circuit check.
- With all connectors/couplers connected and voltage applied to the circuit being checked, measure voltage between each terminal and body ground.
- If measurements were taken as shown in the figure and results were listed in the following, it means that the circuit is open between terminals “a” and “b”.
Voltage between
“a” and body ground: approx. 5 V
“b” and body ground: approx. 5 V
“c” and body ground: 0 V
- Also, if measured values are as listed following, a resistance (abnormality) exists which causes the voltage drop in the circuit between terminals “a” and “b”.
Voltage between
“a” and body ground: approx. 5 V
“b” and body ground: approx. 5 V – 2 v voltage
drop
“c” and body ground: 3 v – 2 v voltage drop
Continuity check
Measure resistance across coupler “b” (between “a”
and “c” in figure).
If no continuity is indicated (infinity or over limit), the
circuit is open between terminals “a” and “c”.

Short circuit check (wire harness to ground)
Disconnect the negative (–) cable from the battery.
Disconnect the connectors/couplers at both ends of
the circuit to be checked.
Note
if the circuit to be checked branches t ...

Be extra safety-conscious on bad weather days
Riding on bad weather days,
especially wet ones, requires
extra caution. Braking distances
increase on a rainy day. Stay off
the painted surface marks, manhole
covers, and greasy-appearing
areas, as they can be
especially slippery. Use extra caution
at railway crossings and on
metal grating ...
Drive chain inspection and adjustment
Inspect drive chain
initially at 1 000 km (600 miles, 2 months) and every
6 000 km (4 000 miles, 12 months) thereafter
Drive chain visual check
With the transmission in neutral, support the
motorcycle using a jack and turn the rear wheel
slowly by hand.
Visually check the drive chain fo ...
Loading guidelines
This motorcycle is primarily
intended to carry small items
when you are not riding with a
passenger. Follow the guidelines
below to carry a passenger or
cargo:
balance the load between the
left and right side of the motorcycle
and fasten it securely.
