Load capacity and accessories
Adding accessories or carrying loads can change the weight distribution and affect steering and balance. This can
easily lead to an accident.
Payload
The total weight of the rider, passenger (if allowed), accessories and load must not exceed the maximum load.
When loading within the restriction, please remember the following:
•
The centre of gravity should be kept as low as possible.
•
Distribute the weight as evenly as possible to maintain balance.
•
The load must be securely fastened.
•
Do not hang heavy or bulky loads on the handlebars, fork or mudguard. This can lead to imbalance and
slowed steering response.
Accessories
Only use original accessories from the manufacturer for your vehicle. Please contact your authorised dealer. The
manufacturer declines responsibility for unapproved accessories from other manufacturers. The responsibility for
this lies solely with you.
When mounting accessories, please remember the following:
•
Do not install any accessories or transport any loads that obstruct or restrict ground clearance, suspension
travel, steering, lights, indicators or reflectors.
•
Accessories on the handlebar or front suspension affect steering behaviour. Keep mounted accessories as
light as possible.
•
Do not mount luggage racks that affect the stability of the vehicle in crosswinds.
•
Have electrical accessories fitted by an authorised dealer to match the capacity of the electrical system.
Improper installation may cause lighting malfunction, low engine power and damage to the vehicle.
Further safety instructions
•
Always signal when turning and changing lanes.
•
Drive slowly and brake carefully on rain-soaked roads or slippery surfaces.
•
Drive carefully past cars to avoid being hit by suddenly opening doors.
