General Information

Caution
Make sure that all electronic devices
and cables are safely secured under
the seat when riding.
Make sure there is sufficient space
surrounding any electronic devices for
the seat to close without causing any
damage to the electronic device or the
motorcycle.
•
Install the seat, making sure that
the device or USB cable is not
trapped.
•
Turn the ignition on and start the
engine.
Caution
Do not leave the ignition switch in
the ON position unless the engine
is running as this will discharge the
battery.
•
When the device has finished
charging, remove the seat and
disconnect the device.
•
Close the storage compartment and
reinstall the seat.
Note
The USB socket is protected by a
chassis ECM, which will automatically
cut power to the socket in the event of
an overload.
Power can be restored to the USB
socket by turning the ignition switch off
then on again, provided that the socket
is not still overloaded.
Breaking-In
R.P.M.
Breaking-in is the name given to the
process that occurs during the first
hours of a new vehicle's operation.
In particular, internal friction in the
engine will be higher when components
are new. Later on, when continued
operation of the engine has ensured
that the components have 'bedded
in', this internal friction will be greatly
reduced.
A period of careful breaking-in will
ensure lower exhaust emissions, and
will optimize performance, fuel economy
and longevity of the engine and other
motorcycle components.
During the first 600 miles (1000 km):
• Do not use full throttle;
• Avoid high engine speeds at all
times;
•
Avoid riding at one constant engine
speed, whether fast or slow, for a
long period of time;
•
Avoid aggressive starts, stops, and
rapid accelerations, except in an
emergency;
•
Do not ride at speeds greater than
3/4 of maximum speed.
From 600 to 1,000 miles (1000 to
1,500 km):
• Engine speed can gradually be
increased to the rev limit for short
periods.
