Attention
The side stand must be fully up (in a horizontal
position), as its safety sensor prevents engine start
when down.
Note
The engine can be started with side stand down
and the gearbox in neutral. When starting the bike
with a gear engaged, pull the clutch lever (in this case
the side stand must be up).
Check that the stop switch (2, Fig 119) is positioned
to (RUN), then press the starter button
(3, Fig 119).
Allow the engine to start on its own, without turning
the throttle twistgrip.

Note
If the battery is flat, the system automatically
disables operation of the starter motor.
Important
Do not rev up the engine when it is cold. Allow
some time for the oil to warm up and reach all points
that need lubricating.
