Transporting the Motorcycle
If you must transport the motorcycle:
• Use a truck or trailer. Do not tow the motorcycle
with another vehicle, as towing will impair the
motorcycle's steering and handling.
• Position and restrain the motorcycle so it remains
upright on the truck or trailer. If the motorcycle
leans to one side, gasoline may leak from the fuel
tank and result in a fire hazard or damage to the
finish.
• Do not restrain the motorcycle using the handle-
bars. In front, hook the tiedowns in the loop pro-
vided in the bottom of the frame. Place tiedowns as
wide apart as possible on the truck or trailer bed for
best stability.
To loop on frame
(one tiedown each side)
To shock/strut mount, or
rear tip-over bar
(one tiedown each side)
