High voltage
Touching live parts of
the ignition system with
the engine running can cause
electric shock.
Do not touch parts of the igni-
tion system when the engine
is running.
Catalytic converter
If misfiring causes unburned
fuel to enter the catalytic con-

overheating and damage.
For this reason, observe the
following points:
Do not run the fuel tank dry.
Do not attempt to start or
run the engine with a spark-

Stop the engine immediately
if it misfires.
Use only unleaded fuel.
Comply with all specified
maintenance intervals.
Unburned fuel will des-

Note the points listed for
protection of the catalytic
converter.

Flammable materials
(e.g. hay, leaves, grass,

with the hot exhaust system.
Cooling would be
inadequate if the engine
were allowed to idle for
a lengthy period with the
motorcycle at a standstill:
overheating would result.
In extreme cases, the
motorcycle could catch fire.
Do not allow the engine to
idle unnecessarily. Ride away
immediately after starting the
engine.
