Stopping The Engine - Victory Motorcycles Hammer 2005 Owner's Manual

OPERATION

Stopping the Engine

Before stopping the engine, bring the motorcycle to a complete stop either in neutral or with the clutch disengaged.
Once the motorcycle is at a complete stop, if it is not already in neutral, shift into neutral. To stop the engine, set the
engine stop/run switch to the STOP position, turn the ignition switch to the OFF position, and remove the ignition
key.
WARNING
• Stopping the engine while the motorcycle is in motion and the transmission is engaged may
damage the engine and the transmission or cause the rear wheel to lose traction. In either case,
you may lose control.
• If the motorcycle is in motion and the engine stops on its own, guide the motorcycle to a safe
location off the road and away from traffic.
