Sidestand
Sidestand Interlock Switch
This vehicle is equipped with a sidestand interlock switch that prevents the engine from
starting, although it will crank, if the sidestand is extended and the transmission is in gear. If
this occurs, the check engine lamp will illuminate until the sidestand is retracted or until the
transmission is placed in neutral.
The interlock switch error code will also display in the diagnostic screen. The SPN will read
“520267” and the FMI will read “31”. See page 27. Turn the ignition switch off to clear the
code.
Sidestand Operation
1. While the motorcycle is in the upright position, push the sidestand downward until it is
fully extended.
2. Slowly lean the motorcycle to the left until the full weight of the motorcycle rests safely
on the sidestand.
3. To retract the sidestand, bring the motorcycle to the upright position. Swing the
sidestand upward to its fully retracted position.
