3.2. Kickstand
The kickstand is equipped with a safe-
ty switch that prevents motorcycle
operation while the stand is down.
If the rider attempts to engage the
gears while the engine is running and
the stand is down, the safety switch
automatically turns off the engine by
cutting the current supply.
If the motorcycle is parked (kickstand
down) and the gears are engaged, the
switch prevents the engine from being
started.
WARNING: Riding with the
kickstand incompletely
retracted can result in an
accident when you turn left.
Always retract the kickstand
completely before starting off.
WARNING: At least once
each month, check that the
safety switch is properly acti-
vated by the kickstand and is
operational.
