General instructions
Your motorcycle is equipped
with a digital electronic engine
management system and a
high-power ignition system.
When the engine is running or
the ignition is switched on, do
not touch electrically live
components, terminals or
wiring.
– Risk of fatal accident
Work on the electrical system
only when the circuit has
been interrupted (ignition
switched off). For greater
safety, disconnect and insu-
late the negative battery lead.
If you intend to perform the
maintenance and general care
work described in the following
section yourself, you must pos-
sess the necessary knowledge
of technical matters and
mechanical skills.
Your motorcycle is built to high
technological standards. Spe-
cial tools and purpose-
designed diagnosis and testing
equipment, together with the
appropriate knowledge, are
needed to keep your motorcy-
cle in optimum working order.
