Regularly scheduled main-
tenance is required to keep
your new motorcycle warranty in force. Improp-
erly maintaining your motorcycle or failing to correct a
problem before riding can cause personal injur y.
To achieve the greatest safety, reliability and performance
from your 2005 Big Dog motorcycle regular maintenance
procedures must be followed. These include inspection,
lubrication and adjustment. Your Authorized Dealer or
Service Center knows best how to service your motor-
cycle, using factory approved methods, equipment and
products assuring you competent service.
Maintenance at regular intervals is required to keep your
new motorcycle’s warranty in effect. The use of other than
Big Dog Motorcycles approved parts, products and service
procedures will void the warranty.
If you or someone other than an Authorized Dealer or
Service Center performs the required service, you must
continuously maintain and retain receipts, logs, and other
documentation sufficient to prove that the required main-
tenance was performed at the proper interval according
to this section.
