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.

Parking
Warning
Always switch off the engine and
remove the ignition key before leaving
the motorcycle unattended. By
removing the key, the risk of use of the
motorcycle by unauthorised or
untrained persons is reduced.
When parking the motorcycle, always
remember the following:
- Engage first gear to help prevent the
motorcycle from rolling off the stand.
- The engine and exhaust system will
be hot after riding. DO NOT park where
pedestrians, animals and/or children
are likely to touch the motorcycle.
- Do not park on soft ground or on a
steeply inclined surface. Parking under
these conditions may cause the
motorcycle to fall over.
For further details, please refer to the
'How to Ride the Motorcycle' section of
this Owner's Handbook.
