Riding Precautions

Motorcycle Safety
Park on a firm, level 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.
Parking with the Side Stand
1.
Stop the engine.
2.
Push the side stand down.
3.
Slowly lean the motorcycle to the left until its
weight rests on the side stand.
4.
Turn the handlebar fully to the left.
uTurning the handlebar to the right reduces
stability and may cause the motorcycle to
fall.
5.
Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position
and remove the key.
