Parking
Try, when possible, to park on level ground. If you have no paved
surface to park on, make sure the ground is firm. If it is neces-
sary for you to park on a hill, position your rear wheel against the
curb at an angle and leave the transmission in gear.
While parked, use the side stand for support.
- Use your foot to guide the side stand down.
- Put something solid under the side stand if you must park on a
soft surface.
Always use the steering lock when your motorcycle is parked,
this will lock the handlebars in place.
- Turn the handler bars left
- Insert ignition key into lock and turn clockwise 90˚, remove key.
