Options Several options are available for the Harley-Davidson Smart Security System from the Harley- Davidson Genuine Motor Accessories and Motor Parts catalog. Options include: Smart Siren and Smart Siren II.

The serial number of the fob is also found on the inside of the fob. See Fob Battery. The module will arm only if the fob has been assigned by a Harley-Davidson dealer and a Personal Identification Number (PIN) has been entered in the system.

The PIN should be recorded on the Personal Information page in the front of this Owner's Manual and on the removable wallet card. Do not leave the fob attached to the handlebars or store the fob in a saddlebag or ® Tour-Pak. Unintentionally leaving the fob with the motorcycle when it's parked prevents the system from activating the alarm. Do not ride with the fob stored in a metal case or with the fob closer than 3.0 in. 76 mm to a cell phone, PDA, display or other electronic device.

Arming and Disarming Arming When the motorcycle is parked and the ignition key is turned to OFF, the Harley-Davidson Smart Security System arms automatically within five seconds if no motion is detected. Even when the fob is present, the system will arm.

Service Departments When the motorcycle is to be left at a Harley-Davidson dealer, there are two options: Leave an assigned fob with the dealer. To maintain possession of the fob, ask the dealer to disable the module for service (service mode) before leaving the dealership.

On motorcycles with a sidecar, the turn signal module (TSM) or the Hands-Free Security Module (HFSM) must be switched from the factory solo vehicle setting to the sidecar setting. Consult a Harley-Davidson dealer for complete details.

If a sidecar is permanently removed from the motorcycle, the TSM or the HFSM must be reconfigured. If the system key icon stays illuminated while riding, see a Harley-Davidson dealer. With the fob present, if the Smart Security System continues to actuate warnings and alarms, one of the following can be the cause: Electromagnetic Interference: Other electronic devices, power lines, or other electromagnetic sources can cause the Smart Security System to operate inconsistently. Operation Operating Recommendations: Touring Models Motorcycles are different from other vehicles. They operate, steer, handle and brake differently. Unskilled or improper use could result in loss of control, death or serious injury. (00556c) Take a rider training course.

Read Owner's Manual before riding, adding accessories or servicing. Wear a helmet, eye protection and protective clothing. Break-in Riding Rules The First 500 Miles (800 Kilometers) The sound design, quality materials, and workmanship that are built into your new Harley-Davidson will give you optimum performance right from the start. To allow your engine to wear in its critical parts, we recommend that you observe the riding rules provided below for the first 500 miles 800 kilometers. Handlebars should turn smoothly without binding. Be sure tires are properly inflated, balanced and have adequate tread. Inspect your tires regularly and see a Harley-Davidson dealer for replacements.

Riding with excessively worn, unbalanced or under-inflated tires can adversely affect stability and handling, which could result in death or serious injury. General The engine should be allowed to run slowly for 15-30 seconds. This will allow the engine to warm up and let oil reach all surfaces needing lubrication. Failure to comply can result in engine damage. (00563b) Do not roll the throttle before starting.

Rolling the throttle before starting the motorcycle is unnecessary. Engine off/run switch Engine start switch Right Handlebar Controls: Touring Models (typical) Engine Idle Temperature Management System For those riders who frequently find themselves in riding conditions where the vehicle is subjected to prolonged idle conditions or traffic congestion, the motorcycle is equipped with an Engine Idle Temperature Management System (EITMS) to provide limited cooling of the rear cylinder. Press the foot shift lever down to end of its travel and release. The transmission is now in first gear. To start forward motion, ease out the clutch lever slowly and at the same time, open throttle gradually. Upshift (Acceleration) Refer to Upshift (Acceleration) Gear Speeds: Six Speed.

Downshift (Deceleration) Gear Speeds: Six Speed GEAR CHANGE Sixth to fifth Fifth to fourth Fourth to third Third to second Second to first NOTE: The shifting points shown in the tables are recommendations. Vehicle owners may determine that their own individual shifting patterns may differ than those stated and are additionally appropriate for individual riding styles. Refer to Regular Service Intervals: 2009 Touring Models. After a new motorcycle has been ridden its first 1000 miles 1600 kilometers, it should be taken to an authorized Harley-Davidson dealer for initial service operations. Recommended Engine Oils. Your authorized dealer has the proper oil to suit your requirements. If it is necessary to add oil and Harley-Davidson oil is not available, use an oil certified for diesel engines.

Acceptable diesel engine oil designations include: CF-4, CG-4, CH-4 and CI-4. Perform engine oil level COLD CHECK as follows: For pre-ride inspection, place vehicle on level ground and rest the vehicle on its jiffy stand (unless sidecar is attached). Remove filler plug/dipstick and wipe off the dipstick. Insert the dipstick and tighten into the fill spout.

ADD QT (lower) mark Cold check level FULL (hot check) mark Engine Oil Dipstick Changing Oil and Oil Filter Do not switch lubricant brands indiscriminately because some lubricants interact chemically when mixed. Use of inferior lubricants can damage the engine. (00184a) Be sure that no lubricants or fluids get on tires, wheels or brakes when changing fluid. Use Harley-Davidson oil filter wrench for filter removal.

This tool can prevent damage to crankshaft position sensor and/or sensor cable. (00192b) See Oil Filter Wrench (Part No. Remove the oil filter using OIL FILTER WRENCH HD-42311 or OIL FILTER WRENCH HD-44067A and hand tools.

Do not use with air tools. Thin oil film ONLY Oil filter Mounting plate Applying Thin Oil Film Winter Lubrication In colder climates, the engine oil should be changed often. Service manual for 2016 ninja 500r. If motorcycle is used frequently for short trips, less than 15 miles 24 kilometers, in ambient temperatures below 60° F 16° C, oil change intervals should be reduced to 1500 miles 2400 kilometers.

GENUINE Harley-Davidson FORMULA+ TRANSMISSION AND PRIMARY CHAINCASE LUBRICANT (Part No. 99851-05 quart). The transmission fluid capacity is approximately 32 fluid ounces 0.95 liters. Inspect o-ring for tears or damage. Replace if required. Wipe any foreign material from plug.

Belt deflection should be within specification as shown in Belt Deflection. If belt tension adjustment is necessary, see a Harley-Davidson dealer or follow the instructions given in the applicable Service Manual. If fork does not appear to be working properly or an appreciable amount of oil leakage should develop, see a Harley-Davidson dealer. If there is insufficient oil in either side of fork, the rebound action will be incorrect. Adjustments to front fork bearings should be performed by a Harley-Davidson dealer. Improperly adjusted bearings can adversely affect handling and stability, which could result in death or serious injury.

(00051a) Refer to Regular Service Intervals: 2009 Touring Models. Check front fork for proper bearing adjustment and lubricate bearings at proper intervals. Use only D.O.T. 4 HYDRAULIC BRAKE FLUID (Part No.

It is selected to give the best performance possible under dry, wet and high operating temperature conditions. Same as original equipment tires should be used. Other tires may not fit correctly, could adversely affect handling, and may be hazardous to use. Tires are a critical safety component. Contact a Harley-Davidson dealer for tire repair or replacement.

Improper tire service can adversely affect stability and handling, which could result in death or serious injury. Tire Replacement Inspection Harley-Davidson tires are equipped with wear bars that run horizontally across the tread. When wear bars become visible and only 1/32 in. (0.8 mm) tread depth remains, replace tire immediately.

Using a worn tire can adversely affect stability and handling, which could result in death or serious injury. Wear Bar Appearance (Typical) Shock Absorbers Refer to Regular Service Intervals: 2009 Touring Models. Inspect shock absorbers and rubber bushings for leaks and bushing deterioration at proper intervals.

Spark Plugs Refer to Regular Service Intervals: 2009 Touring Models. Check the spark plugs at proper intervals. Allow filter to either air dry or blow it dry, from the inside, with low pressure air.
