the brakes are applied because
of an unforeseen hazard when
the motorcycle is banked for cor-
nering, within the physical limits
that apply to motorcycling the
system prevents the wheels from
locking and skidding away.
On the race track
For riders of limited experience,
first attempts at race-track rid-
ing are much safer in the RAIN
and SPORT riding modes with
ABS Pro.
ABS Pro was not
developed to enhance
individual braking performance
with the motorcycle banked into
corners.
Use on public roads
ABS Pro was intentionally de-
signed for use on public roads.
Parking your
motorcycle
Side stand
Switch off the engine.
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.
Extend the side stand and prop
the motorcycle on the stand.
The side stand is designed
to support only the weight
of the vehicle.
Do not lean or sit on the vehicle
with the side stand extended.
If the camber of the roadway
permits, turn the handlebars all
the way to the left.
On a gradient, the motorcycle
should always face uphill; se-
lect 1st gear.
Refuelling

fuel should be sulphur-free or
with the lowest sulphur content
possible.

catalytic converter.

on leaded fuel or fuel with metal-
lic additives, e.g. manganese or
iron.
You can run the engine on fuel
with a maximum ethanol con-
tent of 10 %, i.e. E10.
