Stopping and parking
Apply the brakes fully and put the engine into neutral. To stop the engine, switch off the
ignition. Park the motorcycle on a firm surface and lock.
– Always park your motorbike on a solid and horizontal surface.
– Never leave your motorcycle without supervision as long as the engine is running.
– Motorcycle engines produce a great amount of heat while running. The engine radiators,
exhaust, exhaust system, brake discs, and shock absorbers can become very hot. Do not
touch any of these parts after operating the motorcycle, and take care to park it where
pedestrians are not likely to touch it and get burned
– Never park your motorcycle in places where there exist fire hazards due to dry grass or
other easily flammable materials.
Always take out the ignition key when parking your motorcycle so that it cannot be used by
unauthorized persons.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE SIDE STAND
Use your foot to push the side stand forward as far as possible, and lean your motorcycle to
the side. Make sure that your motorcycle is standing safely on solid ground. Just in case,
you can also put in a gear.
The side stand is dimensioned for the weight of the motorcycle only. If you are sitting on the
motorbike and thus apply an additional load onto the side stand, you may cause damage to
the side stand or the engine case, and your motorbike may fall over.
