SIDE STAND/IGNITION INTERLOCK
SYSTEM
Check the side stand/ignition interlock
system for proper operation as fol-
lows:
1. Sit on the motorcycle in the nor-
mal riding position, with the side
stand up.
2. Shift into first gear, hold the clutch
in, and start the engine.
3. While continuing to hold the clutch
in, move the side stand to the
down position.
If the engine stops running when the
side stand is moved to the down posi-
tion, then the side stand/ignition inter-
lock system is working properly. If the
engine continues to run with the side
stand down and the transmission in
gear, then the side stand/ignition
interlock system is not working prop-
erly. Have your motorcycle inspected
by an authorized Suzuki dealer or a
qualified service mechanic.
 WARNING
If the side stand/ignition interlock
system is not working properly, it
is possible to ride the motorcycle
with the side stand in the down
position. This may interfere with
rider control during a left turn and
could cause an accident.
Check the side stand/ignition
interlock system for proper opera-
tion before riding. Check that the
side stand is returned to its full up
position before starting off.
