CAUTION
Do not coast for long distances with the engine off or idling.
The transmission is properly lubricated only when the engine
is running. Coasting long distances can result in transmission
damage.
WARNING
Do not tow a disabled motorcycle. Towing can adversely
affect stability and handling, which could result in death or
serious injury.
CAUTION
Cooling fans operate automatically, even when the ignition
switch is off. Keep hands away from fan blades. Contact with
a rotating fan blade can result in minor or moderate injury.
WARNING
When riding on wet roads, brake efficiency and traction are
greatly reduced. Failure to use care when braking,
accelerating or turning on wet roads can cause loss of control,
which could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Continuous use of brake causes overheating and reduced
efficiency, which could result in death or serious injury.
