Brake fluid

• Brake fluid is extremely corrosive.
• Avoid any contacts with the eyes, skin and the mucous membrane.
• If brake liquid comes into contact with the skin, remove all contaminated clothing and wash immediately with soap
and water.
• If brake fluid comes into contact with the eyes, abundantly rinse with water and call a doctor.
• If swallowed, do not provocate vomiting to avoid aspiration of the product into the lungs. Immediately call a doctor.
• Take the injured person immediately to hospital, if he has breathed brake fluid into the lungs.
• In the case of exposure to high concentrations of vapour, move the injured person to a non-poisonous atmosphere
and if necessary call a doctor.
• In the case of accidental contact, rinse abundantly with water and call a doctor.
• Keep brake fluid out of reach of children.

Thread-locking fluid

• As it is not classified as dangerous, the prolonged contact with the skin, particularly with regards to abrasions can
provocate sensitiveness and dermatitis. In the case of contact with the skin, rinse abundantly with running water.
• Move the injured person into the open air and call a doctor if the injured person feels ill after having breathed in the
product.
• In the case of contact with the eyes, rinse abundantly with water for at least 15 minutes.
• If the thread-locking fluid has been swallowed, drink an abundant quantity of water or milk. Do not provocate vomit-
ing to avoid the aspiration of the product into the lungs. Immediately call a doctor.
• Keep out of reach of children.

Nitrogen - rear shock absorber

• The rear shock absorber contains nitrogen under pressure.
• Before disposing of used shock absorbers, discharge the nitrogen via the depressurising valve.
• Utilise only nitrogen to pressurise the shock absorber. The use of unstable gases can cause explosions that could
cause burns.
• Do not place the shock absorber near to flames or sources of heat as this could cause explosions with consequent
burns.
• Keep out of reach of children.

Battery

• The battery produces explosive gases. Keep it away from sparks, flames or cigarettes. During recharging, ade-
quately ventilate the environment.
• The battery contains a solution of sulphuric acid (electrolyte).
• Sulphuric acid is corrosive and it destroys many materials and clothing. On contact with small quantities of water it
generates a violent reaction that manifests itself by creating large quantity of heat and spurts of hot acid. Sulphuric
acid attacks many metals thereby liberating hydrogen: an inflammable gas that forms an explosive mixture when
mixed with air.
• Contact with sulphuric acid can cause burns. In the case of contact, remove immediately all contaminated clothing
and wash the skin with abundant quantities of water. Take the injured person to hospital if necessary.
• In the case of contact with the eyes, rinse immediately with abundant water. Call a doctor and continue with the treat-
ment until the doctor arrives.
• If the electrolyte is swallowed, rinse the mouth with water without swallowing. Take the injured person immediately
to hospital and explain to the doctor there what the injured person has swallowed.
• The battery contains dangerous substances that are poisonous for the environment. It is necessary to be equipped
to dispose of this product in respect of the norms in force.
• Do not dispose of used batteries in the environment.
• Keep out of reach of children.
Hot parts
• The engine and the exhaust system become very hot and maintain this temperature for some time after the engine
has been switched off. Wait for these parts to cool down before handling them or working on the motorcycle near to
them. Use protective gloves.
