Climbing on and off the vehicle
Pay attention to the instructions below.
They have the goal of keeping the pilot or
the passenger from falling from the vehicle
and/or the vehicle itself from toppling, which
would result in damages
to people, things and the vehicle itself.
- Only climb on and off the vehicle if you
have freedom of movement; your hands,
in particular, must not be holding objects,
such as helmet, gloves or glasses.
Climbing on the bike
- With the bike on the side kickstand, the
pilot must climb on the motorbike from
its left side, with both hands holding the
handlebar.
- Once the pilot is on the bike, lift the bike;
the side kickstand will automatically lift
as well.
DANGER
Make sure the side kickstand is fully lift-
ed.
WARNING
Do not place the pilot’s or the passen-
ger’s weight on the side kickstand.
NOTE: If you are unable to rest both your
feet on the ground on both sides of the bike,
firm your right foot on the ground and keep
the left one ready to offer support.
- The passenger must extract the rear
footrests and climb from the left side
of the bike, using the left footrest while
holding on to the pilot.
