How to Ride the Motorcycle
Parking
Select neutral and turn the ignition switch to
the OFF position.
Lock the steering to help prevent theft.
Always park on a firm, level surface to
prevent the motorcycle from falling.
When parking on a hill, always park facing
uphill to prevent the motorcycle from rolling
off the stand.
On a lateral (sideways) incline, always park
such that the incline naturally pushes the
motorcycle towards the side stand.
Do not park on a lateral (sideways) incline of
greater than 6° and never park facing
downhill.
Note:
• When parking near traffic at night,
or when parking in a location
where parking lights are required
by law, leave the tail, licence plate
and position lights on by turning
the ignition switch to P (PARK).
• Do not leave the switch in the P
position for long periods as this will
discharge the battery.
Warning
Do not park on a soft or on a steeply
inclined surface. Parking under these
conditions may cause the motorcycle to fall
over causing damage to property and
personal injury.
Warning
Petrol is extremely flammable and can be
explosive under certain conditions. If
parking inside a garage or other structure,
be sure it is well ventilated and the
motorcycle is not close to any source of
flame or sparks. This includes any
appliance with a pilot light.
Failure to follow the above advice may
cause a fire resulting in damage to
property or personal injury.
Warning
The engine and exhaust system will be hot
after riding. DO NOT park where
pedestrians and children are likely to touch
the motorcycle.
Touching any part of the engine or exhaust
system when hot may cause unprotected
skin to become burnt.
