WARNING
Make sure the motorcycle is stabilised
and adequately supported.
Do not support the motorcycle on any
ancillary component, the exhaust
system or any other non structural
parts of the motorcycle frame.
A correctly supported motorcycle will
help prevent it from falling.
An unstable motorcycle may fall
resulting in motorcycle damage,
serious injury or death.
WARNING
Make sure that the battery terminals
do not touch the motorcycle frame.
This may cause a short circuit or
spark which would ignite battery
gases.
Failure to follow the advice above
could result in serious injury or death.
WARNING
Before disconnecting the battery or
removing a fuse for any reason, note
and record the riding modes settings.
Once the fuse has been refitted or the
battery reconnected, the riding modes
should be reset as noted.
Failure to reset the motorcycle riding
modes settings and subsequently
being ridden, may cause loss of
motorcycle control which could result
in serious injury or death.
