Loading
Warning
Always make sure that any loads
carried are evenly distributed on both
sides of the motorcycle. Make sure
that the load is correctly secured so
that it will not move around while the
motorcycle is in motion.
Evenly distribute the load within each
pannier (if equipped). Pack heavy items
at the bottom and on the inboard side
of the pannier.
Always check the load security
regularly (though not while the
motorcycle is in motion) and make
sure that the load does not extend
beyond the rear of the motorcycle.
Never exceed the maximum vehicle
loading weight as specified in the
Specifications section.
This maximum loading weight is made
up from the combined weight of the
rider, passenger, any accessories
installed and any load carried.
For models that have adjustable
suspension settings, make sure that
front and rear spring preload and
damping settings are suitable for the
loading condition of the motorcycle.
Note the maximum permissible payload
for the panniers is stated on a label
inside the pannier.
Incorrect loading may result in an
unsafe riding condition leading to an
accident.
Warning
The maximum safe load for each
pannier is stated on a label inside the
pannier.
Never exceed this loading limit as this
may cause the motorcycle to become
unstable leading to loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
Warning
Never attempt to store any items
between the frame and the fuel tank.
This can restrict the steering and will
cause loss of control leading to an
accident.
Weight attached to the handlebar or
front fork will increase the mass of the
steering assembly and can result in
loss of steering control leading to an
accident.
