Parking
Park on a firm, level surface.
If you must park on a slight incline or loose surface,
park so that the motorcycle cannot move or fall
over.
Make sure that high-temperature parts cannot
come into contact with flammable materials.
Do not touch the engine, muffler, brakes and other
high-temperature parts until they cool down.
To reduce the likelihood of theft, always lock the
handlebar and remove the key when leaving the
motorcycle unattended. Use of an anti-theft device
is also recommended.
Parking with the Side Stand
1. Stop the engine.
2. Push the side stand down.
3. Slowly lean the motorcycle to the left until its weight
rests on the side stand.
4. Turn the handlebar fully to the left.
Turning the handlebar to the right reduces
stability and may cause the motorcycle to fall.
5. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position and
remove the key (page 17).
Refuelling and Fuel Guidelines
Follow these guidelines to protect the engine:
Use only unleaded petrol.
Use recommended octane number. Using lower
octane petrol will result in decreased engine
performance.
Do not use fuels containing a high concentration
of alcohol (page 71).
Do not use stale or contaminated petrol or an oil/
petrol mixture.
Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.
