Specification Highlights
Quick access to accurate factory data is essential for field maintenance and efficient shop work. Valve clearance for intake and exhaust sits exactly at 0.08 mm (0.003 in). A complete engine rebuild requires 1.9 liters of oil. Keep your drivetrain in check with a drive chain slack of 30–35 mm, measured midway between the sprockets. Ensure your top end is secure by torquing the cylinder head bolts to 28–30 Nm (20–22 ft-lbs). Other critical specs include a front brake lever free play of 25–30 mm and a 2.0-liter fuel reserve. This 211-page official Honda FourTrax factory manual delivers the authoritative parameters required for the assembly and mechanical evaluation operations typical in a working garage.
