Parking the motorcycle

Using the sidestand
CAUTION
• Park the motorcycle safely on solid ground.
• On slopes, engage the first gear and park
the vehicle so that the front wheel faces
uphill. Remember to put the gear lever in the
neutral position before restarting the engine.
• Never leave the vehicle unattended while
the engine key is in the dashboard.

Using your foot, lower the sidestand as far as it will
go, and then slowly tip the motorcycle toward you to
bring the stand supporting foot into contact with the
ground's surface.
WARNING
Do not sit on the vehicle when it is parked on the sidestand, as your full weight would rest
on the vehicle's only support.
WARNING
Before riding off, ensure that the sidestand warning light on the instrument panel goes out.
In any case, make sure that the stand has been retracted.
If you notice a malfunction of the side stand switch, have it controlled by your MV Agusta
dealer before using the motorcycle.
