engine immobilizer is turned off when the
ignition key is in the ignition switch and it is
turned to the ON position.
Switch Location
The ignition switch is located in line with the
rear edge of the fuel tank, on the right hand
side of the motorcycle.

This is a three position, key operated switch.
The key can be removed from the switch
only when it is in the OFF or P (PARK)

To turn the switch from OFF to ON, insert
the key and turn the key clockwise to the ON
position.
To turn the switch from ON to PARK, push
the key barrel further into the lock and turn
clockwise to the PARK position. Use the PARK
position only when temporarily leaving the
motorcycle in a situation where the position
lights must remain on.
To turn the key back to OFF, turn the key
