PARKING
1. After stopping the motorcycle, shift the
transmission into neutral, turn the
handlebar fully to the left, turn the
ignition switch OFF and remove the key.
2. Use the side stand to support the
motorcycle while parked.
Park the motorcycle on firm, level ground
to prevent it from falling over.
If you must park on a slight incline, aim
the front of the motorcycle uphill to
reduce the possibility of rolling off the
side stand or overturning.
3. Lock the steering to help prevent theft
(page 55).
Make sure flammable materials such as
dry grass or leaves do not come in
contact with the exhaust system when
parking your motorcycle.
