General Information
To adjust the windscreen, loosen left and
right hand adjuster knobs sufficiently to allow
the adjustment blocks to slide over the
adjustment plates.
Position the windscreen to the desired height,
ensuring both adjustment plates are set to
the same position.
Tighten the adjuster knobs to secure the
windscreen in position.
See page 12 6 for windscreen cleaning
information.
Running-In
Running-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 running-in will ensure
lower exhaust emissions, and will optimise
performance, fuel economy and longevity of
the engine and other motorcycle
components.
During the first 500 miles (800 kilometres):
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 engine speed.
Warning
Always ensure that the windscreen
adjusters are adjusted to the same position.
Riding the motorcycle with an incorrectly
adjusted windscreen could cause loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
Warning
Always ensure both windscreen adjusters
are tightened before riding the motorcycle.
Riding the motorcycle with a loose
windscreen or windscreen adjuster could
cause loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
