Parking (fig. 44)
Stop and park the motorcycle on the side stand
(see page 38).
To avoid theft, turn the handlebar fully left and block it
by pushing in the ignition key and turning it to the LOCK
position.
If you park in a garage or other facilities, make sure that
there is proper ventilation and that the motorcycle is not
near a source of heat.
You may leave the parking lights on by turning the key to
position P.
Important
Do not leave the key turned to P for long periods or
the battery will run down. Never leave the ignition key in
the switch when you are leaving your bike unattended.
Warning
The exhaust system might be hot, even after engine
is switched off; pay particular attention not to touch
exhaust system with any body part and do not park the
vehicle next to inflammable material (wood, leaves etc.).
Warning
Using padlocks or other locks designed to prevent
motorcycle motion, such as brake disc locks, rear sprocket
locks, and so on is dangerous and may impair motorcycle
operation and affect the safety of the rider.
