Loading Guidelines
As previously discussed, we recommend that you do
not carry any cargo on this motorcycle. However, if
you decide to carry cargo, ride at reduced speeds and
follow these common-sense guidelines:
• Keep cargo small and light. Make sure it cannot
easily be caught on brush or other objects, and that
it does not interfere with your ability to shift position
to maintain balance and stability.
• Place weight as close to the center of the
motorcycle as possible.
• Do not attach large or heavy items (such as a
sleeping bag or tent) to the handlebar, fork, or front
fender.
• Make sure that all cargo is tied down securely.
• Never exceed the maximum weight limit.
• Check that both tyres are inflated properly.
