Attention:
This motorcycle is a touring En-
duro machine, which means it
can also be used for light off-
roading on unsurfaced tracks.
If you are contemplating heavy
off-road usage or long trips that
will involve a lot of off-road rid-
ing, it is advisable to fit cross-
spoked wheels
avoid damage to the cast-alu-
minium rims of the standard
wheels.
