SIDE STAND
A side stand (1) is supplied with every motorcycle.
Periodically check the side stand (see “Scheduled
Maintenance Chart”); make sure that the springs are
not damaged and the side stand moves freely. If the
side stand is noisy, lubricate the fastening pivot.
WARNING
The stand is designed to support the
WEIGHT of the MOTORCYCLE ONLY. Do not
sit astride the motorcycle using the stand
for support as this could cause structural
failure to the stand resulting in serious
injury.
WARNING
The motorcycle must be placed on its
side stand ONLY AFTER the rider has
dismounted.
WARNING
A safety sensor (2) is tted on the
motorbike, which allows starting it with
the stand lowered and the gear in neutral.
If a gear is engaged with the stand
lowered, the engine turns o.
Note
Lower the stand with your right foot keeping
the motorcycle balanced. When the stand has
been lowered, make the bike rest on it. Once the
motorbike has been brought from its rest position
on the ground to vertical position, the rider has
to raise the stand from the lowered to the raised
position with his/her left foot.
