WARNING: Your Ridley Motorcycle was not designed to pull trailers. Pulling a trailer or any object may cause
your motorcycle’s handling to malfunction.
WARNING: Do not install accessories or carry cargo that changes the design parameters of the motorcycle.
After installing accessories or cargo, carefully inspect the machine to determine if:
• Lights or reflectors have been covered
• Control has been obscured or restricted.
• Steering travel has been reduced.
• Suspension travel has been reduced.
• Cornering clearance has been reduced.
• Ground clearance has been reduced.
NOTE: Bulky accessories and/or cargo may change the aerodynamics of the motorcycle and affect stability during
normal riding, crosswinds, or wind created by passing vehicles.
WARNING: Adding electrical accessories may exceed the capacity of the motorcycle’s electrical system. This
could lead to an electrical failure, which could cause a dangerous loss of lights and/or engine power.
SAFE OPERATING RULES
Before operating your new Ridley motorcycle it is your responsibility to read and follow the operating and
maintenance instructions in this manual. Follow these basic rules for your personal safety.
• Know and respect the rules of the road. Read and observe the Motorcycle Safety booklets. You should also
read and know the contents of your state’s motorcycle handbook.
• Use only Ridley approved parts and accessories. Use of certain other manufacturer’s performance parts will
void your new motorcycle warranty. See your dealer for details.
• Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain conditions. Refuel in a well-ventilated area with
the engine turned off. Remove fuel filler cap slowly. Do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks when
refueling or servicing the fuel system. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Avoid spilling fuel on a hot engine. Do not fill
the fuel tank above top of the center canal divider or it may overflow when the fuel heats up and expands or
when the motorcycle is transported.
WARNING: Motorcycle exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas. Do not inhale exhaust gases and
never run the engine in a closed garage or confined area.
• Before starting engine, check for proper operation of both brakes and correct fuel and oil supply.
• Be certain the vehicle stand is up before riding the motorcycle. Riding with the stand unretracted can cause a
serious crash, leading to injury or death.
• A new motorcycle must be operated according to the special break-in procedures explained in this manual on
page 32.[jcr1]
• Operate the motorcycle only at moderated speed and out of traffic until you have become fully familiar with its
operation and handling under all conditions. If you are an inexperienced rider we recommend that you obtain
information and formal training in correct motorcycle riding techniques.
• Do not exceed the legal speed limit or drive too fast for existing road conditions. Always reduce speed in poor
driving conditions. High speeds increase the influence of any other condition affecting stability and possibility of
loss of control.
• Pay strict attention to road surfaces and wind conditions. Any two-wheeled vehicle may be subject to upsetting
forces. Wind force from passing automobiles can cause loss of control. Be sure to stay aware of your
surrounding traffic, road conditions, and weather conditions and adjust your riding style accordingly.
