How to Ride the Motorcycle

To Start the Engine

Never start the engine or run the
engine in a confined area. Exhaust
fumes are poisonous and can cause
loss of consciousness and death within
a short period of time. Always operate
your motorcycle in the open air or in
an area with adequate ventilation.
Do not operate the starter continuously
for more than five seconds as the
starter motor will overheat and the
battery will become discharged. Wait
15 seconds between each operation of
the starter to allow for cooling and
recovery of battery power.
Do not let the engine idle for long
periods as this may lead to overheating
which will cause damage to the engine.
The low oil pressure warning light
should go out shortly after the engine
starts.
If the low oil pressure warning light
stays on after starting the engine, stop
the engine immediately and investigate
the cause. Running the engine with low
oil pressure will cause severe engine
damage.
