SAFETY INFORMATION 2
2
Do not use the motorcycle, nor try to service it,
if you do not possess the necessary skills.
Full control of the motorcycle is fundamental to
safe riding. Concentration and a perfect physical
condition are essential requirements for the rider.
The road and weather conditions should also be
taken into account.
Always wear suitable clothes, especially when
travelling by night (e.g. garments with fluorescent
bands).
Always wear a helmet, even on short rides.
When travelling during daylight, keep the low
beam on if allowed by local regulations.
Do not attach objects or wear garments that
could adversely affect control and handling of the
motorcycle.
When refuelling, switch off the engine and
refrain from smoking.
When refuelling, avoid spilling the fuel onto the
tank and the exhaust pipes.
When refuelling, stay away from the vehicle to
avoid inhaling harmful fumes. Should the fuel
come into contact with the skin or clothes, imme-
diately wash with water and change the contami-
nated garments.
Some parts of the vehicle become very hot
during use. Avoid contact with these parts and
keep the motorcycle out of the reach of children.
Always park the motorcycle safely and avoid
leaving it unattended while the ignition key is in
the dashboard.
Park the vehicle where it is unlikely to be
bumped into or damaged.
To prevent the vehicle from tipping over, never
park it on soft or uneven ground.
Do not start the engine in closed places.
Exhaust gases are toxic and can quickly saturate
the air and cause fainting or even death.
Before starting the engine in a closed place,
ensure that the area is well ventilated.
