Starting the engine
Warning
Before starting the engine, become familiar with the
controls you will need to use when riding (see page 10).
1) Move ignition switch to
ON
(fig. 36). Check that the
green pilot light
N
(8, fig. 5) and the red one
(7,
fig. 5), on the instrument panel are on.
Important
The oil pressure light should go out a few seconds
after the engine has started (page 13).
Note
It is possible to start the engine 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).
