operator and may limit control
ability, therefore, such accesso-
ries are not recommended.
t Use caution when adding electri-
cal accessories. If electrical ac-
cessories exceed the capacity of
the motorcycle’s electrical sys-
tem, an electric failure could re-
sult, which could cause a
dangerous loss of lights or engine
power.
Aftermarket Tires and Rims
The tires and rims that came with your
motorcycle were designed to match
the performance capabilities and to
provide the best combination of han-
dling, braking, and comfort. Other
tires, rims, sizes, and combinations
may not be appropriate. See page 7-17
for tire specifications and for informa-
tion on servicing and replacing your
tires.
Transporting the Motorcycle
Be sure to observe following instruc-
tions before transporting the motorcy-
cle in another vehicle.
t Remove all loose items from the
motorcycle.
t Check that the fuel cock (if
equipped) is in the off position and
that there are no fuel leaks.
t Shift the transmission into gear
(for models with a manual trans-
mission).
t Secure the motorcycle with tie-
downs or suitable straps that are
attached to solid parts of the mo-
torcycle, such as the frame or up-
per front fork triple clamp (and not,
for example, to rubber-mounted
handlebars or turn signals, or
parts that could break). Choose
the location for the straps carefully
so the straps will not rub against
painted surfaces during transport.
t
The suspension should be com-
pressed somewhat by the tie-
downs, if possible, so that the mo-
torcycle will not bounce exces-
sively during transport.

Helmets
Operating this vehicle without an ap-
proved motorcycle helmet increases
your chances of a severe head injury or
death in the event of an accident. The
majority of fatalities from motorcycle or
scooter accidents are the result of
head injuries. The use of a safety hel-
met is the single most critical factor in
the prevention or reduction of head in-
juries.
Always select an approved motorcy-
cle helmet
Pay attention to the following when
choosing a motorcycle helmet.
t The helmet must meet the safety
standard “SNI”.
t The helmet size must match the
size of the rider’s head.
t
Never subject a helmet to heavy
shocks.
Wearing the helmet correctly
Always connect the chin strap. In the
case of an accident, the helmet has a
much less chance of coming off if the
chin strap is connected.
