SAFETY
Rider Safety
Operating on paved surfaces may affect the handling and control of the vehicle
and could result in loss of control. Avoid sudden turns or swift movement of the
handlebars.
Always remove the ignition key when
the vehicle is not in use to prevent
unauthorized use or accidental
starting.
Always unlock the steering before starting the engine. See page 28.
Handling Gasoline
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive under certain conditions.
Always exercise extreme caution whenever handling gasoline.
Always refuel with the engine stopped, and outdoors or in a well ventilated
area.
Do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks in or near the area where refu-
eling is performed or where gasoline is stored.
Do not overfill the tank. Do not fill the tank neck.
If gasoline spills on your skin or clothing, immediately wash it off with soap
and water and change clothing.
• Turn the fuel valve off whenever the vehicle is stored or parked.
Hot components can cause serious burns and fire. Do not touch hot exhaust
system components. Always keep combustible materials away from the exhaust
system.
