Sidestand

The sidestand is located on the left
side of the frame. Raise the sidestand
or lower it with your foot while holding
the motorcycle upright.
ECA10150 NOTE:
The built-in sidestand switch is part of
the ignition circuit cut-off system,
which cuts the ignition in certain
situations. (See further down for an
explanation of the ignition circuit cut-
off system.)
s WARNING
s
The vehicle must not be ridden with
the sidestand down, or if the sides-
tand cannot be properly moved up
(or does not stay up), otherwise the
sidestand could contact the ground
ECA10160 and distract the operator, resulting
in a possible loss of control. Yama-
ha's ignition circuit cut-off system
has been designed to assist the
operator in fulfilling the responsibi-
lity of raising the sidestand before
EAU15300
starting off. Therefore, check this
system regularly as described
below and have a Yamaha dealer
repair it if it does not function pro-
perly.
