Stopping the motorcycle
If you let go of the throttle twistgrip, the motorcycle will
slow down gradually and smoothly. Then, shift down
releasing the clutch, and finally change from first to
neutral. Apply brakes and you will bring the motorcycle to
a complete stop.
To switch the engine off, simply turn the key to
OFF
(page 12).
Important
Never leave the key in the
ON
position when
engine is stopped, or this will damage the electric
components.
Warning
Using padlocks or other locks designed to prevent
motorcycle motion, such as brake disc locks, rear
sprocket locks, and so on is dangerous and may impair
motorcycle operation and affect the safety of rider and
passenger.
Parking
Stop and park the motorcycle on the side stand (see
page 23).
To avoid theft, turn the handlebar fully left and block it by
pushing in the ignition key and turning it to the
LOCK
position (fig. 22.1).
If you park in a garage or other facilities, make sure that
there is proper ventilation and that the motorcycle is not
near a source of heat or sparks.
You may leave the parking lights on by turning the key to
position
P
(fig. 22.1).
Important
Do not leave the key turned to
P
for long periods or
the battery will run down. Never leave the ignition key in
the switch when you are leaving your bike unattended.
