Parking - Monster 659 Owner's Manual

Parking

Stop the motorcycle, then put it on the side stand (see page
63).
To prevent theft, turn the handlebar fully left and turn the
ignition key to (3).
If you park in a garage or other indoor area, make sure that
there is proper ventilation and that the motorcycle is not near
a source of heat.
You may leave the parking lights on by turning the key to (4).
Important
Do not leave the key turned to position (4) for long
periods or the battery will run down. Never leave the ignition
key in the switch when you are leaving your bike unattended.
Warning
The exhaust system might be hot, even after engine is
switched off; take special care not to touch exhaust system
with any part of your body and do not park the motorcycle
next to inflammable material (wood, leaves etc.).
Warning
Using padlocks or other locks designed to prevent
movement of the motorcycle (such as brake disc locks, rear
sprocket locks, and so on) is very dangerous, and may impair
motorcycle operation and the safety of rider and passenger.
