Pull the lock release outwards to release the
center of the seat then raise the seat from the
rear and detach the front edge from the fuel
tank.
To install, locate the seat to the frame
ensuring the locating tongue is correctly
positioned beneath the fuel tank bridge.
Press firmly down to engage the center of the
seat in the seat lock.
Finally, tighten the seat fastener to 7 lbf ft
(10 Nm) , store the Allen key in the space
provided and install the fuse cover.

Side Stand
1. Side stand
The motorcycle is equipped with a side stand
on which the motorcycle can be parked.
Whenever the stand is used, before riding,
always ensure that the stand is fully up after
first sitting on the motorcycle.
For instructions on safe parking, refer to the
'How to Ride the Motorcycle' section.
Warning
The motorcycle is fitted with an interlock
system to prevent it from being ridden

Never attempt to ride with the side stand
down or interfere with the interlock
mechanism as this will cause a dangerous
riding condition leading to loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
