Important Information
Important Information before Ride
1. Any driver and/or passenger should be completely familiar with motorcycle operation. The passenger
can a󰀨ect control of motorcycle by improper positioning during turning corner or sudden movements. So it’s
important for passenger to sit still while the motorcycle is in motion and not interfere with the operation of
motorcycle. Do not carry animals on the motorcycle.
2. All baggage should be carried as low as possible to reduce the e󰀨ect on the motorcycle gravity. Baggage
weight should also be distributed equally on both sides of motorcycle. Avoid carrying baggage that extends
beyond the rear of the motorcycle.
3. All baggage should be xed on the motorcycle safely, make sure the baggage can not move before riding.
When feel motorcycle is not stable during riding,should inspect again if the baggage is steady,adjust when
necessary.
4. Do not carry heavy or bulky items on a luggage rack. They are designed for light items, and overloading
can a󰀨ect handling due to changes of weight distribution and aerodynamic forces.
5. Do not install accessories or carry baggage that impairs the performance of motorcycle. Make sure that
you have not adversely affected any lighting components, road clearance, banking capability (i.e., lean
angle), control operation, wheel travel, front fork movement, or any other aspect of motorcycle’s operation.
6. Weight attached to handlebar or front fork will increase the mass of steering and can result in unsafe riding
condition.
7. Fairings, windshield, backrest and any other large items have the capability of adversely a󰀨ecting stability
and handling of the motorcycle. Not only because of their weight, but also aerodynamic forces acting on
these surfaces while motorcycle is in operation. Poorly designed or installed items can result in unsafe riding
condition.

8. The motorcycle cannot be modified to triple-wheel motorcycle and intended to be used for towing any
trailer or other vehicle. CFMOTO cannot assume responsibility for the results of such unintended use of
