STOPPING AND PARKING
1.
Twist the throttle grip away from
yourself to close the throttle com-
pletely.
2. Apply the front and rear brakes
evenly and at the same time.
3. Downshift through the gears as
road speed decreases.
4. Select neutral with the clutch lever
squeezed
toward the grip (disen-
gaged position)
just
before the
motorcycle
stoos.
Neutral position
can be confirmed by observing the
neutral indicator light.
A WARNING
Inexperienced riders tend to
underutilize the front brake. This
can cause excessive stopping dis-
tance and lead to a collision. Us-
ing only the front or rear brake can
cause skidding and loss of control.
Apply both brakes evenly and at the
same time.
A WARNING
Hard braking while turning may
cause wheel skid and loss of con-
trol.
Brake before you begin to turn.
A WARNING
Hard braking on wet,
looser-rough,
or other slippery surfaces can
cause wheel skid and loss of con-
trol.
Brake lightly and with care on slip-
pery or irregular surfaces.
A WARNING
Following another vehicle too
closely can lead to a collision. As
vehicle speeds increase, stopping
distance increases progressively.
Be sure you have a safe stopping
distance between you and the ve-
hicle in front of you.
5. Park the motorcycle on a firm, flat
surface where it will not fall over.
A WARNING
A hot muffler can burn you. The
muffler will be hot
enough
to burn
you for some time after stopping
the engine.
Park the motorcycle where pedes-
trians or children are not likely to
touch the
muffler.
NOTE: If the motorcycle is to be
parked on the side stand on a slight
slope, the front end of the motorcycle
should face "up" the incline to avoid
rolling forward off the side stand. You
may leave the motorcycle in 1st gear
to help prevent it from rolling off the
side stand. Return to neutral before
starting engine.
6. Turn the ignition key to the "OFF"
position.
7. Turn the handlebars all the way to
the left and lock the steering for
security.
8. Remove the ignition key.
INSPECTION AND
MAINTENANCE
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
The chart indicates the intervals be-
tween periodic services in miles, kilo-
meters and months. At the end of each
interval, be sure to inspect, check, lu-
bricate and service as instructed. If
your motprcycle is used under high
stress conditions such as continuous
full throttle operation, or is operated
in a dusty climate, certain services
should be performed more often to
ensure reliability of the machine as
explained in the maintenance section.
Your Suzuki dealer can provide you
with further guidelines. Steering com-
ponents, suspensions and wheel com-
ponents are key items and require very
special and careful servicing. For
maximum safety we suggest that you
have these items inspected and ser-
viced by your authorized Suzuki dealer
or a qualified service mechanic.
A WARNING
Improper maintenance or failure to
perform recommended mainte-
nance increases the chance of an
accident or motorcycle damage.
Always follow the inspection and
maintenance recommendations
and schedules in this owner's
manual. Ask your SUZUKI dealer or
qualified mechanic to do the main-
tenance items marked with an as-
terisk
(*).You
may perform the un-
marked maintenance items by
re-
ferring to the instructions in this
section, if you have mechanical
experience. If you are not sure how
to do any of the jobs, have your
SUZUKI dealer or qualified me-
chanic do them.

A WARNING
Running the engine indoors or in a
garage can be hazardous. Exhaust
gas contains carbon monoxide, a
gas that is colorless and odorless
and can cause death or severe in-
jury.
Only run the engine outdoors
where there is fresh air.
NOTE: The MAINTENANCE CHART
specified the minimum requirements
for maintenance. If you use your mo-
torcycle under severe conditions, per-
form maintenance more often than
shown in the chart. If you have any
questions regarding maintenance in-
tervals, consult your SUZUKI dealer
or
qualified
mechanic.
A CAUTION
Using poor quality replacement
parts can cause your motorcycle to
wear more quickly and may shorten
its useful life.
Use only genuine Suzuki replace-
ment parts or their equivalent.
