Motorcycle Safety
● Park on a firm, level paved surface.
● If you must park on a slight incline or loose
surface, park so that the motorcycle cannot
move or fall over.
● Make sure that high-temperature parts
cannot come into contact with flammable
materials.
● Do not touch the engine, muffler, brakes and
other high-temperature parts until they cool
down.
● To reduce the likelihood of theft, always lock
the handlebar and remove the key when
leaving the motorcycle unattended.
Use of an anti-theft device is also
recommended.
