Sit on the motorcycle and use

your left foot to retract the side

stand.

Placing motorcycle on

centre stand

If the ground is soft or un-

even, there is no guaran-

tee that the motorcycle will rest

firmly on the stand.

Always check that the ground

under the stand is level and

firm.

Switch off the engine.

Dismount and keep your left

hand on the left handlebar grip.

With your right hand, grip the

rear grab handle or the rear

frame.

Use your right foot on the pin

of the centre stand to press

the stand down until its curved

feet touch the ground.

Place your full body weight on

the centre stand and at the

same time pull the motorcycle

to the rear.

Excessive movements

could cause the centre

stand to retract, and the

motorcycle would topple in

consequence.

Do not lean or sit on the mo-

torcycle with the centre stand

extended.

Check that the motorcycle is

standing firmly.

Lock the steering lock.

Removing motorcycle

from centre stand

Unlock the steering lock.

Place your left hand on the left

handlebar grip.

With your right hand, grip the

rear grab handle or the rear

frame.

Push the motorcycle forward

off the centre stand.

Check that the centre stand

has fully retracted.

Refuelling

Fuel is highly flammable. A

naked flame close to the

fuel tank can cause a fire or ex-

plosion.

Do not smoke. Never bring a

naked flame near the fuel tank.

Fuel expands when hot.

Fuel escaping from an

overfilled tank could make its way

onto the rear tyre. This could

cause a fall.

Do not fill the tank past the bot-

tom edge of the filler neck.

Fuel attacks plastics, which

become dull or unsightly.

Wipe off plastic parts immediately

if they come into contact with

fuel.
