General Information
To gain access to the handbook,
remove the rear seat (as described
elsewhere in this section) and pivot
the toolbox upward towards the rear
of the motorcycle. The handbook is
located in a vertical slot behind the
battery.
Seat Lock
1 Seat lock
The seat lock is located at the rear of
the right hand side cover. To remove
the seat, insert the ignition key into
the seat lock and turn it anti-
clockwise while pressing down on the
rear of the seat. This will release the
seat from its lock and allow it to be
slid rearwards for complete removal
from the motorcycle.
To refit the seat, engage the seat’s
tongue under the fuel tank and press
down at the rear to engage in the
seat lock.
Running-In
Running-in is the name given to the
process that occurs during the first
hours of a new vehicle's operation.
In particular, internal friction in the
engine will be higher when
components are new. Later on, when
continued operation of the engine
has ensured that the components
have 'bedded in', this internal friction
will be greatly reduced.
A period of careful running in will
ensure lower exhaust emissions, and
will optimise performance, fuel
economy and longevity of the engine
and other motorcycle components.
Warning
To prevent detachment of the seat
during riding, after fitting always
grasp the seat and pull firmly
upwards. If the seat is not correctly
secured in the lock it will detach
from the lock. A loose or detached
seat could cause loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
