Warning
The rider and passenger must always
use the footrests provided, during
operation of the vehicle.
By using the footrests, both rider and
passenger will reduce the risk of
inadvertent
contact
with
any
motorcycle components and will also
reduce the risk of injury from
entrapment of clothing.
Warning
Use of a motorcycle with bank angle
indicators worn beyond the maximum
limit will allow the motorcycle to be
banked to an unsafe angle. Therefore,
always
replace
the
bank
angle
indicator pegs before they are worn to
their maximum limit. Banking to an
unsafe angle may cause instability,
loss of motorcycle control and an
accident. Details of the bank angle
wear limits can be found in the
Maintenance and Adjustment section
on page
105.
Warning
The bank angle indicators must not be
used as a guide to how far the
motorcycle may be safely banked. This
depends on many various conditions
including, but not limited to, road
surface, tire condition and weather.
Banking to an unsafe angle may cause
instability, loss of motorcycle control
and an accident.
Warning
When banking and the bank angle
indicator, attached to the rider's
footrest, makes contact with the
ground, the motorcycle is nearing its
bank angle limit. A further increase of
the banking angle is unsafe. Banking
to an unsafe angle may cause
instability, loss of motorcycle control
and an accident.
