do not touch the motorcycle frame as
this may cause a short circuit or spark,
which would ignite battery gases
causing a risk of personal injury.

• Remove the rider's seat.
• Remove the wing nut and remove
the chassis Electronic Control
Module (ECM) cover.

manufactured do not pollute the
environment.
