There are a great variety of accessories
available to Hyosung owners. Hyosung
can not have direct control over the quality
or suitability of accessories you may wish to
purchase except genuine parts.
The addition of unsuitable accessories
can lead to unsafe operating conditions. It
is not possible for
Hyosung to test each
accessory on the market or combinations
of all available accessories, however, your
dealer can assist you in selecting quality
accessories and installing them correctly.
Use extreme caution when selecting and
installing the accessories for your
Hyosung . We have developed some
general guidelines which will aid you when
deciding whether, and how to equip your
motorcycle.
1. In case that additional weight or
aerodynamic affecting accessories are
installed, they should be mounted as
low as possible, as close to the
motorcycle and as near the center of
gravity as is feasible. The mounting
brackets and other attachment
hardware should be carefully checked
to ensure that it provides for a rigid,
nonmovable mount. Weak mounts can
allow the shifting of the weight and
create a dangerous, unstable condition.
2. Inspect for proper ground clearance
and bank angle. An improperly
mounted load could critically reduce
these two safety factors. Also
determine that the “load” does not
interfere with the operation of the
suspension steering or other control
operations.
3. Accessories fitted to the handlebars or
the front fork area can create serious
stability problems. This extra weight will
cause the motorcycle to be less
responsive to your steering control.
The weight may also cause oscillations
in the front end and lead to instability
problems. Accessories added to the
machine should be as light as possible
and kept to a minimum.
4. The motorcycle may be affected by a
lifting condition or by an instability in
cross winds or when being passed or
passing large vehicles. Improperly
mounted or poorly designed
accessories can result in an unsafe
riding condition, therefore caution
should be used when selecting and
installing all accessories.
ACCESSORY INSTALLATION AND
PRECAUTION SAFETY TIPS
Improper accessories or modifications
can make your motorcycle unsafe and
can lead to an accident.
Never modify the motorcycle with
improper or poorly installed
accessories. Follow all instructions in
this owner’s manual regarding
accessories and modifications. Use
genuine Hyosung accessories or
equivalent designed and tested for
your motorcycle. Consult your
Hyosung dealer if you have any
questions.
