WARNING
@
Because loading has an enormous
impact on the handling, braking,
performance and safety characteris-
tics of your motorcycle, you should
keep the following precautions in
mind.
●
NEVER OVERLOAD THE
MOTORCYCLE! Operation of an
overloaded motorcycle may re-
sult in tire damage, loss of con-
trol, or severe injury. Make sure
that the total weight of rider,
passenger, cargo, and accesso-
ries does not exceed the speci-
fied maximum load for the
vehicle.
●
Do not carry along loosely
packed items, which can shift
during a ride.
●
Securely pack the heaviest
items close to the center of the
motorcycle and distribute the
weight evenly on both sides.
●
Adjust the suspension and tire
air pressure with regard to the
load.
●
Check the tire condition and air
pressure before each ride.
