KAWASAKI Service manual & wiring diagrams

Kawasaki Model Identification Guide

This page is a collection of hard to find information, procedures, tests, and specifications for vintage Kawasaki motorcycles.

Oil Pump Air bleeding & output test
for SuperLube & Injectolube systems.

1. Remove oil pump check valve outlet pipe (the banjo bolt, see Fig 1)

2. Use 20:1 premix in the tank before starting the engine.

3. Remove the cable for the oil pump so it can be opened fully for the test.

4. With some wire open the pump cam to full throttle position.

5. Start engine and run at aprox. 2,000 RPM.

6. With a stopwatch run the engine for 3 minutes while collecting the oil from the oil pipe.

​Specifications are listed for each model in the table.

*For models not listed, use the closest appropriate model displacement (F6 125cc, F7 175cc..) as Kawasaki only made minor revisions over the years but the oil pump output will be similar and should be within a similar output.

Example:  G-Series output specification would be similar for later 80-100cc models such as the KE/KV/KM100, MC1, KD80, ect.. as they share similarities.
