Catalytic converter
If misfiring causes unburned
fuel to enter the catalytic con-
verter, there is a danger of
overheating and damage.
For this reason, observe the
following points:
– Do not ride the motorcycle
with the fuel tank empty.
– Do not run the engine with
the spark-plug cap removed.
– In the event of engine misfir-
ing, stop the engine immedi-
ately.
– Only refuel using unleaded
fuel.
– Be sure to adhere to the
prescribed maintenance
intervals.
Unburned fuel destroys
the catalytic converter.
Note the points listed for
protection of the catalytic
converter.
c
Risk of fire
High temperatures occur at
the exhaust pipe.
If highly flammable mate-
rials (e.g. hay, leaves,
grass, clothing and luggage,
etc.) make contact with the hot
exhaust pipe, they can start to
burn.
Ensure that no highly flamma-
ble materials can come into
contact with the hot exhaust
system.
c
–If the engine runs for a
longer period when the
motorcycle is stationary, the
cooling is inadequate and
overheating can occur. In
extreme cases, the motorcy-
cle could catch fire.
Do not let the engine run for
unnecessary periods when
the motorcycle is stationary.
After starting, move off
immediately.
c
Manipulation of the engine
electronics control unit
Manipulation of the engine
electronics control unit can
cause damage to the motorcy-
cle and therefore lead to acci-
dents. Do not manipulate the en-
gine electronics control unit.
c
Any manipulation of the
engine electronics
control unit can lead to
mechanical loads for which
the components of the motor-
cycle are not configured. Dam-
age caused in this way invali-
dates the warranty.
Do not manipulate the engine
electronics control unit.
