centerstand, follow these precautions
when removing the front and rear

before starting any maintenance. A
strong wooden box can be placed un-
der the engine for added stability.
To service the front wheel

by using a motorcycle stand or, if
an additional motorcycle stand is
not available, by placing a jack un-
der the frame in front of the rear
wheel.
2. Raise the front wheel off the
ground by using a motorcycle
stand.
To service the rear wheel
Raise the rear wheel off the ground by
using a motorcycle stand or, if a motor-
cycle stand is not available, by placing
a jack either under each side of the
frame in front of the rear wheel or under
each side of the swingarm.
1. Do not touch the glass part of the bulb.
