Intended use

Attention
This motorcycle is designed for on-road use, may be used occasionally on dirt trail. Usage in conditions for which it was not designed (e.g. heavy off-road use) can lead to loss of control of the motorcycle, increasing the risk of a crash. This motorcycle may not be used to tow any trailers or with a side-car attached; this can lead to loss of control and result in an accident. This motorcycle carries the rider and can carry a passenger. The total weight of the motorcycle in running order with rider, passenger, baggage and additional accessories must not exceed 355kg/782.64lb.

Important
Using the motorcycle under extreme conditions, such as very damp and muddy roads or dusty and dry environment, could cause above-average wear of components like the drive system, the brakes or the air filter. If the air filter is dirty, the engine could get damaged. Therefore, this might translate in required service or replacement of the wear parts earlier than specified in the scheduled maintenance chart.

Rider’s obligations
All riders must hold a valid licence.

Attention
Riding without a licence is illegal and is prosecuted by law. Always make sure you have your licence with you when riding. Do not let inexperienced riders or persons without a valid licence use your motorcycle. Do not ride under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs. Riding under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs is illegal and is prosecuted by law. Do not take prescription or other drugs before riding unless you have consulted your doctor about their side effects. Some medications and drugs may cause drowsiness or other effects that slow down reaction time and the rider’s ability to control the motorcycle, possibly leading to an accident. Some states require vehicle insurance. Check your state laws. Obtain insurance coverage and keep your insurance document secure with the other motorcycle documents. To protect rider and passenger safety, some states mandate the use of a certified helmet. Check your state laws. Riding without a helmet may be punishable by law. Riders without helmets are more likely to suffer severe bodily injury or die if they are in an accident. Check that your helmet complies with safety specifications, permits good vision, is the right size for your head, and carries a certification label indicating that it conforms to the standards in force in your state. Road traffic laws differ from state to state. Learn about traffic laws in your state before riding and always obey them.

Rider’s training
Accidents are frequently due to inexperience. Riding, manoeuvres and braking must be performed in a different way than on the other vehicles.

Attention
Untrained riders or wrong use of the vehicle may lead to loss of control, serious injuries or even death.

Apparel
Riding gear is very important for safety. Unlike cars, a motorcycle offers no impact protection in an accident. Proper riding gear includes a helmet, eye protection, gloves, boots, back protector, long sleeve jacket and long trousers.

  • The helmet must meet the requirements listed at “Rider’s obligations”; if your helmet does not have a visor, use suitable eye wear;
  • Use certified, five-finger gloves made from leather or abrasion-resistant material; with knuckle protectors and reinforcements on the fingers;
  • Riding boots or shoes must have non-slip soles and offer ankle protection;
  • The back protector must be certified and sized based on the physical constitution of the rider, according to the manufacturer’s specifications;

Attention
Before riding your motorcycle, become familiar with the controls you will need to use when riding. These few simple operations are critical to people safety and to preserving the full performance of your motorcycle. Never forget to perform them before, while and after riding. Perform the checks recommended in this manual under “Checks before riding” before each ride. Failure to carry out these checks before riding may lead to motorcycle damage and injury to rider and/or passenger. Start the engine outdoors or in a well ventilated area.

Use proper body position while riding and ensure your passenger does the same.

Important
Rider must hold the handlebar with both hands at ALL TIMES while riding. Both rider and passenger should keep their feet on the footpegs when the motorcycle is in motion. The passenger should always hold on to the grab handles under the seat with both hands. Be very careful when tackling road junctions, or when riding in areas near exits from private grounds, car parks or on slip roads to access motorways. Be sure you are clearly visible and do not ride within the blind spot of vehicles ahead. ALWAYS signal your intention to turn or pull to the next lane in good time using the suitable turn indicators. Park your motorcycle where no one is likely to knock against it and use the side stand. Never park on uneven or soft ground, or your motorcycle may fall over. Visually inspect the tyres at regular intervals to detect cracks and cuts, especially on the side walls, bulges or large spots that are indicative of internal damage. Replace them if badly damaged. Remove any stones or other foreign bodies caught in the tread.

Attention
Engine, exhaust pipes and silencers stay hot long after the engine is switched off; pay particular attention not to touch the exhaust system with any body part and do not park the vehicle next to flammable material (wood, leaves etc.). Do not cover the motorbike with the canvas, when the engine and exhaust system are hot, to avoid damaging it.

Refuelling

Fuel is highly flammable, in case of accidental spillage of fuel on your clothes it is necessary to change into clean clothes.
