Ignition Switch 

The ignition switch is located on the control 
column’s right side below the handlebars. A key 
is required to work the switch. This switch has 
three positions, “

O

” On, “

X

” Off and  “

” Locked. 

The switch must be in the “

O

” on position for the 

engine to start and run. The “

X

” off position 

disconnects power to the ignition and light circuits 
and stops the engine. The   “

” locked position, 

locks the steering column and allows the key to 
be removed. In order to turn the key to the “

” 

locked position you must press down on the key 
with the steering column turned slightly to the left. 
 
NOTE: Always lock your vehicle when leaving it 
unattended and take your keys for additional 
security against theft of your vehicle. 
 
The ignition key also unlocks your fuel cap and 
under seat storage compartments. 

 

  

 

Instrument Cluster 

The instrument cluster provides you with 
operating conditions of your vehicle. To the 
left is the fuel gauge which indicates the fuel 
level in the fuel tank. When the needle 
reaches the red zone on the gauge, you are 
running low on fuel and the tank should be 
refilled. This gauge is controlled by a fuel 
level sending unit located inside the fuel tank. 
 
The center speedometer indicates the 
current speed of your vehicle. The 
speedometer is calibrated in both MPH, 
(Miles per hour) and KPH, (Kilometers per 
hour). This gauge is controlled by a cable 
attached to the front wheel of the vehicle. 
 
The right side is a series of three indicator 
lamps. The top most lamps in the cluster will 
indicate that the turn signals have been 
activated and also indicates which signal 
lamps are illuminated.  
 
The right indicator lamp indicates the head 
light controller is in the Hi-Beam, 100%, 
position when illuminated. 
 
The left lamp indicates the 2 cycle oil level in 
the oil tank. When illuminated your oil tank is 
low and needs to be refilled. Continued 
operation of the engine with a low oil 
condition will cause sever damage to the 
engine and potentially unsafe operating 
condition. Refill your oil tank with High grade 
JASO FC 2 cycle injector oil.
