RIDING TIPS
Instructions for initial operation
- Verify if your AJP dealer performed a
previous preparation of the motorcycle.
- Read this manual carefully before you
ride.
- Familiarize yourself with all the
operating controls.
- Get used to the handling of the
motorcycle on an empty parking lot or
open space, before going for a longer
ride. Try also to drive as slow as
possible and in sitting position to
improve your feeling of the motorcycle.
- Hold the handlebar with both hands
and leave your feet on the footrests
while driving.
– Remove your foot from the brake
pedal when you are not braking. If the
brake pedal is not released the brake
pads will rub continuously and the
braking system will overheat.
- Do not make any changes to the
motorcycle and use always AJP original
spare parts for safety reasons.
- Motorcycles are sensitive to changes
in the weight distribution. If you are
taking any luggage with you, secure it
as close as possible to the middle of
the motorcycle, in order to distribute the
weight for both wheels.
ENGINE START
Starting when the engine is cold
1- Swing up the side stand and turn
the ignition key on.
2- Put the gear in neutral (the neutral
pilot lamp will light up).
3- Operate the choke lever all the way
up.
4- Check if the emergency switch is
on running position.

kick the kick-starter briskly all the
way without touching the throttle.
! CAUTION !
Never actuate electric starter for
more than 5 seconds and with
lights on. Wait at least 5 seconds
before trying again.
! WARNING !
Before you start off, check the side
stand has been fully swung up. If
the side stand drags on the ground,
the motorcycle goes out of control.
Always turn on the light to make
sure that other drivers become
aware of you as early as possible.

Never ride your motorcycle with full
load or rev the engine when cold.

faster than the cylinder, it can
cause engine damage.
