short time. Always operate your
motorcycle in an area that has ad-
equate ventilation.
G Always turn the engine off before
leaving the motorcycle unattended
and remove the key from the main
switch. When parking the motor-
cycle, note the following:
• The engine and
pipe(s)/muffler(s) may be hot,
therefore, park the motorcycle in
a place where pedestrians or
children are not likely to touch
these hot areas.
• Do not park the motorcycle on a
slope or soft ground, otherwise it
may fall over.
• Do not park the motorcycle near
a flammable source, (e.g., a ker-
osene heater, or near an open
flame), otherwise it could catch
fire.
G When transporting the motorcycle
in another vehicle, make sure that
it is kept upright and that the fuel
cock(s) are turned to "ON" or
"RES" (for vacuum type)/"OFF"
(for manual type). If the motorcycle
should lean over, gasoline may
leak out of the carburetor or fuel
tank.
G If you should swallow any gaso-
line, inhale a lot of gasoline vapor,
or allow gasoline to get into your
eyes, see your doctor immediately.
If any gasoline spills on your skin
exhaust or clothing, immediately wash the
affected area with soap and water
and change your clothes.
