WARNING
DO NOT modify the ignition/headlight switch wiring to
circumvent the automatic-on headlight feature. Visibility
is a major concern for motorcyclists. Failure to have
proper headlight operation could result in death or seri-
ous injury.
Switch positions are explained in
Table 7-8.
CAUTION
Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position and remove
the key before locking the motorcycle. Leaving the key in
the P position will keep the instrument lights on and
result in a discharged battery. (00155a)
NOTE
The key locks the ignition system and is removable in both
the LOCK and P positions. The P position is located counter-
clockwise from the LOCK position and allows the rider to
remove the key while leaving the lights on. When the key is
placed in the P position, several indicator markers are or can
be activated. Refer to
Table 7-9.
