WARNING
Because loading has an enormous
impact on the handling, braking,
performance and safety characte-
ristics of your vehicle, you should
keep the following precautions in
mind.
●
NEVER OVERLOAD THE VEHI-
CLE! Operation of an overloa-
ded motorcycle may result in
tire damage, loss of control, or
severe injury. Make sure that
the total weight of rider, pas-
senger, cargo, and accessories
does not exceed the specified
maximum load for the vehicle.
●
Do not carry along loosely pac-
ked items, which can shift
during a ride.
●
Securely pack the heaviest
items close to the center of the
vehicle and distribute the
weight evenly on both sides.
●
Adjust the tire air pressure with
regard to the load.
●
Check the tire condition and air
pressure before each ride.
