Never operate the ignition switch while riding. Doing so
will result in a sudden loss of power to your motorcycle
and could cause you to lose control. Only operate the
ignition switch after the motorcycle has come to a com-
plete and safe stop.
5. After you have come to a full stop, turn the ignition switch
to the “OFF” position.
