WARNING

If the side stand is not in the full forward position
when vehicle weight is rested on it, the vehicle could
fall over, possibly causing personal injury.
Always park motorcycle on a level, firm surface.
Vehicle weight could cause motorcycle to fall over,
possibly causing personal injury.
Be sure side stand is fully retracted before riding the
motorcycle. If side stand is not fully retracted during

causing a momentary disturbance before retracting.
This momentary disturbance could distract the rider,
possibly causing loss of vehicle control and per-
