2.1.4. VEHICLE LOAD
This motorcycle is designed for use by the rider
only. To use the vehicle in complete safety and
respect of the Highway Code provisions, it is
essential not to exceed the maximum weight of
the motorcycle, which corresponds to 325 kg.
This value comes out from the sum of the follow-
ing weights, according to the European standard
CEE 92/61:
• weight of the motorcycle;
• weight of the driver;
• weight of the load and all the accessories.
WARNING: Since the load can strongly
affect handling, braking, performance
and safety characteristics of your
motorcycle, you should always keep in
mind the following warnings.
• NEVER OVERLOAD YOUR MOTOR-
CYCLE! Driving an overloaded motorcy-
cle can cause damage to the tyres, loss
of control of the vehicle and serious
injury. Verify that the total weight (inclu-
ding the weight of the motorcycle, the
driver, the load and all the accessories)
does not exceed the maximum load
values specified for your vehicle.
• Never carry any incorrectly fastened
object on your motorcycle, because it
could move from its position during riding.
• Steadily fasten the heaviest objects near
the center of the motorcycle, and equally
divide the load on both sides of the vehicle.
• Do not insert any object or accessory
in the spaces on the frame trellis, in
order to avoid interferring with the
movable parts of the motorcycle.
• Before riding, always check the wear
and the pressure of the tyres.
• Adjust the suspensions according to
the load.
• Even if the motorcycle is correctly
loaded, drive with caution and never
exceed 130 km/h when you carry a load.
