Engine Break-in Period
Starting the Engine
The starter interlock system allows the engine to be started only when the transmission is in neutral, or when the
transmission is in gear with the clutch disengaged (clutch lever pulled in).
Tip: If the motorcycle runs out of fuel, prime the system before attempting to restart the engine. See page 59.
1. Perform the pre-ride inspections. See page 43.
2. Insert the key into the ignition switch and turn the switch to the ON position.
3. Straddle the motorcycle and bring it to the fully upright position.
4. Engage the front brake and place the sidestand in the stored (up) position.
5. If the neutral indicator is not illuminated, shift the transmission to neutral. See page 62.
6. Move the engine stop/run switch to the RUN position. You should hear the fuel pump run momentarily as it
pressurizes the fuel system.
