SAFE OPERATING RULES
W A R N I N G
Consult your Royal Enfield Authorised Dealer regarding
any questions or problems that occur in the operation
of your motorcycle. Failure to do so may aggravate
an initial problem, cause costly repairs, jeopardize your
personal safety and could result in serious injury or death.
W A R N I N G
Use only genuine Royal Enfield replacement fasteners
tightened to the proper torque (See your Royal Enfield
Work Shop Manual). We caution you against the use of
certain nonstandard parts such as aftermarket and
custom made fasteners which may not have specific
strength, finish and type requirements to perform
properly in the assembly and its environment. The use
of any nonstandard parts, including fasteners, could
result in serious injury or death.
W A R N I N G
DO NOT exceed the Gross Motorcycle Weight Rating
of your motorcycle. The Gross Motorcycle Weight
Rating (GVWR) is shown on the information plate,
located on the frame Down tube. (GVWR is the sum of
the weight of the motorcycle, accessories, and the
maximum weight of the rider, passenger and cargo
that may be safely carried.) Exceeding GVWR may
lead to instability of the motorcycle, which could cause
an accident and result in serious injury or death.
W A R N I N G
DO NOT tow a diabled motorcycle. The steering and
handling fo the disabled motorcycle will be impaired
due to the force of the towline. If a disabled motorcycle
must be transported, use a truck or a trailer. Towing a
motorcycle may cause loss of control of the motorcycle
in the front, leading to an accident resulting in serious
injury or death.
W A R N I N G
DO NOT pull a trailer behind a motorcycle. Towing a
trailer may cause reduced braking efficiency, tyre
overloading and unstable handling. Towing a trailer
may cause loss of control of the motorcycle in the front,
leading to an accident resulting in serious injury or death.
