Loading Guidelines - Suzuki GSX1300BK Owner's Manual

Loading Guidelines

• Balance the load between the left and
right side of the motorcycle and fasten it
securely.
• Place cargo weight as close to the cen-
ter of the motorcycle as possible.
• Do not attach large or heavy items to the
handlebars, front forks or rear fender.
• Check that both tires are properly
inflated to the specified tire pressure for
your loading conditions. Refer to page 6-
53.
• Improperly loading your motorcycle can
reduce your ability to balance and steer
the motorcycle. You should ride at
reduced speeds, less than 130 km/h (80
mph), when the cargo is loaded or
accessory is fitted.
• Adjust suspension setting as necessary.
 WARNING
Placing objects in the space behind the
fairing can interfere with steering and

behind the fairing.
