Stopping the motorcycle
If you let go of the throttle twistgrip, the motorcycle will
slow down gradually and smoothly. Then, shift down
releasing the clutch, and finally change from first to
neutral. Apply brakes and you will bring the motorcycle to
a complete stop.
To switch the engine off, simply turn the key to OFF
(page 24).
Important
The engine control unit incorporates a power save
feature. When the key is left accidentally in the ON
position and the starter button is not operated within 15
seconds, the engine control unit shuts down
automatically. When this is the case, turn the key to OFF
and back to ON again. However, never leave the key
turned to ON with the engine stopped.
Parking
Stop and park the motorcycle on the side stand (see
page 39).
To avoid theft, turn the handlebar fully left and block it by
pushing in the ignition key and turning it to the LOCK
position.
If you park in a garage or other facilities, make sure that
there is proper ventilation and that the motorcycle is not
near a source of heat.
You may leave the parking lights on by turning the key to
position P.
Important
Do not leave the key turned to P for long periods or
the battery will run down. Never leave the ignition key in
the switch when you are leaving your bike unattended.
Warning
The exhaust system might be hot, even after
engine is switched off; pay particular attention not to
touch exhaust system with any body part and do not park
the vehicle next to inflammable material (wood, leaves
etc.).
Warning
Using padlocks or other locks designed to prevent
motorcycle motion, such as brake disc locks, rear
sprocket locks, and so on is dangerous and may impair
motorcycle operation and affect the safety of rider and
passenger.
