NOTE:
Always change down one gear at a time
and at the correct speed to avoid engine
overspeed and jamming of the rear
wheel.

SIDE STAND

The side stand is on the left side of the
vehicle. Lift or lower the side stand with
your feet while holding the vehicle in a
straight position.
NOTE:
The switch built into the side stand is
part of the ignition circuit cut-out system
that cuts out the ignition in certain
situations.

IMPORTANT:
Do not use the vehicle with the side
stand lowered, or if it cannot be lifted
correctly (or if it will not stay up), otherwi-
se the side stand might not touch ground
and distract the rider with the resulting
possibility of losing control of the bike.
The cut-out ignition circuit has been
designed to ensure the rider raises the
side stand before putting the motorcycle
in movement. Therefore, we ask that you
check this system regularly, as described
below, and have it repaired by a Benelli
dealer if it does not operate correctly.
IGNITION CIRCUIT CUT-OUT
SYSTEM
The cut-out system for the ignition circuit
(including the side stand switch, neutral
gear smirch and clutch lever switch),
serves the following functions:
• To prevent starting with the gear in
and the side stand raised, with the
clutch lever not pulled.
• Switch off the engine with the gear
engaged and when the side stand is
lowered.
