Safety During Service Procedures
WARNING
Failure to follow recommended precautions and procedures could result in severe injury or death.
Always heed all safety precautions and follow all operation, inspection and maintenance procedures
outlined in this manual.
• Improperly installed or adjusted components can make the motorcycle unstable or hard to handle.
Improperly installed electrical components can cause engine or electrical system failure. In either
event, damage or serious injury could result. If you do not have the time, tools and expertise
necessary to complete a procedure properly, please see your dealer for service.
• Review the safety-related maintenance information on page 13.
• Before beginning any maintenance procedure, read the instructions for the entire procedure.
• Always position the motorcycle on a firm level surface before performing service. Make sure the
motorcycle will not tip or fall while elevated or while on the sidestand.
• Hot engine and exhaust components can cause burns to skin and can ignite a fire if exposed to
flammable materials. Always park the motorcycle clear of flammable materials and where people are
not likely to contact hot components.
• Wear eye and face protection when using pressurized air.
• Never start the engine or let it run in an enclosed area. Engine exhaust fumes are poisonous and
can cause loss of consciousness or death in a short time.
• During some procedures you may use potentially hazardous products such as oil or brake fluid.
Always follow the instructions and warnings on the product packaging.
