SAFETY INFORMATION
does not in any way reduce ground
clearance or cornering clearance,
limit suspension travel, steering
travel or control operation, or
obscure lights or reflectors.
•
Accessories fitted to the
handlebar or the front fork area
can create instability due to
improper weight distribution or
aerodynamic changes. If
accessories are added to the
handlebar or front fork area, they
must be as lightweight as
possible and should be kept to a
minimum.
•
Bulky or large accessories may
seriously affect the stability of the
machine due to aerodynamic
effects. Wind may attempt to lift
the machine, or the machine may
become unstable in cross winds.
•
Certain accessories can displace
the operator from his or her nor-
mal riding position. This improper
position limits the freedom of
movement of the operator and
may limit control ability,
therefore, such accessories are
not recommended.
●
Use caution when adding electrical
accessories. If electrical
accessories exceed the capacity of
the machine’s electrical system an
electric failure could result, which
could cause a dangerous loss of
lights or engine power.
Gasoline and exhaust gas
●
GASOLINE IS HIGHLY
FLAMMABLE:
•
Always turn the engine off when
refueling.
•
Take care not to spill any gasoline
on the engine or exhaust pipe(s)/
muffler(s) when refueling.
•
Never refuel while smoking or in
the vicinity of an open flame.
●
Never start the engine or let it run
for any length of time in a closed
area. The exhaust fumes are
poisonous and may cause loss of
consciousness and death within a
short time. Always operate your
machine in an area that has
adequate ventilation.
●
Always turn the engine off before
leaving the machine unattended
and remove the key from the main
switch. When parking the machine,
note the following:
•
The engine and exhaust pipe(s)/
muffler(s) may be hot, therefore,
park the machine in a place
where pedestrians or children are
not likely to touch these hot
areas.
•
Do not park the machine on a
slope or soft ground, otherwise it
may fall over.
•
Do not park the machine near a
flammable source (e.g., a
kerosene heater, or near an open
flame), otherwise it could catch
fire.
●
When transporting the machine in
another vehicle, make sure that it
is kept upright and that the fuel
cock(s) are turned to “ON” or “RES”
(for vacuum type)/”OFF” (for manual
type). If the machine should lean
over, gasoline may leak out of the
carburetor or fuel tank.
●
If you should swallow any gasoline,
inhale a lot of gasoline vapor, or
allow gasoline to get into your eyes,
