General Information
Side Cover (all models except
Scrambler)
1. S i d e c o v e r
2. Fastener
3. Seat removal tool
The right hand side cover can be removed to
gain access to the fuse box, seat removal tool,
rear brake fluid reservoir etc.
To remove the side cover, release the cover's
threaded fastener using a coin.
Lift the cover until it clears its retaining
dowels and then remove the cover from the
motorcycle.
To refit, position the cover over its locating
dowels, fit the threaded fastener and tighten
with a coin.
Finally, grasp the cover and ensure that it is
fully retained.
Warning
Overfilling the tank can lead to fuel
spillage.
If petrol (fuel) is spilled, thoroughly wipe off
the spilled fuel immediately and dispose of
the cleaning cloth safely.
Take care not to spill any petrol (fuel) on
the engine, exhaust pipes, tyres or any
other part of the motorcycle.
Because petrol (fuel) is highly flammable,
any fuel leak or spillage, or any failure to
observe the safety advice given above will
lead to a fire hazard which could cause
damage to property, injury to persons or
death.
Petrol (fuel) spilled near to or on the tyres
will reduce the tyre's ability to grip the
road. This will result in a dangerous riding
condition causing loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
