Periodic maintenance and adjustment

Clutch lever

Checking and lubricating the cen-

terstand and sidestand

The operation of the centerstand and si-

destand should be checked before each

ride, and the pivots and metal-tometal

contact surfaces should be lubricated if

necessary.

WARNING

If the centerstand or sidestand does

not move up and down smoothly,

have a Benelli dealer check or repair

it. Otherwise, the centerstand or side-

stand could contact the ground and di-

stract the operator, resulting in a possi-

ble loss of control.

Benelli’s ignition circuit cut-off system

has been designed to assist the opera-

tor in fulfilling the responsibilityof rai-

sing the sidestand before starting off.

Therefore, check this system regularly

and have a Benelli dealer repair it if it

does not function properly.

TIP

The built-in sidestand switch is part of the

ignition circuit cut-off system, which cuts

the ignition in certain situations.

(See the following section for an explana-

tion of the ignition circuit cut-off system.)

Recommended lubricant:

Brake lever:

Silicone grease
