3. BEFORE RIDING
This manual describes the correct usage of this motorcycle including safety riding, simple inspection
methods and so on.
For a more comfortable and safety riding, please read this manual carefully.
yIn case the motorcycle’s specifications and construction are modified and different from the
photos and diagrams on the owner’s manual / catalogues, the specifications and construction of
the actual motorcycle shall prevail.
4. SAFE RIDING
It is very important to be relaxed and dressed properly when driving. Observe traffic regulations. Do not
rush and always drive carefully.
Usually, most people would ride their newly bought motorcycle very carefully, but after they became
familiar with their motorcycles, they tended to become reckless which may result in an accident.
For your benefit, please ask your E-TON authorized dealer about the operating manual and carefully
read the following:
yCorrect use of the motorcycle.
yPre-delivery inspection and maintenance.
Thank you very much for your patronage
In order to maximize your motorcycle’s performance, a periodical inspection and maintenance
should be completely carried out.
We recommend that after riding your new motorcycle for the first 300 kilometers, you should
take your motorcycle to the authorized E-TON dealer for an initial inspection, and to have your
motorcycle inspected periodically every 1000 kilometers thereafter.
To remind you:
yPlease wear a safety helmet, and properly tighten the chin belt when riding a motorcycle.
yClothes with open or loose cuffs may be blown by wind and cause the cuffs to get caught on the
steering handle and thus affects riding safety.
yHold the steering handle by both hands when riding. Never ride with only one hand.
yObserve the speed limit.
yWear suitable low-heel shoes.
yPerform periodical maintenance and inspection in accordance with the schedule.
WARNING!!
yTo avoid getting burned by exhaust pipe when taking a passenger. Make sure your passenger
has put his/her feet on the pedals.
yAfter running, the exhaust pipe is very hot, be careful not to get burned when conducting an
inspection or maintenance.
yAfter running, the exhaust pipe is very hot, select a suitable location to park your motorcycle to
avoid others getting burned by the exhaust pipe.
CAUTION:
Modified motorcycle will affect its structure or performance, and cause poor engine operation or
exhaust noise, which will result in shortening the motorcycle’s service life.
Modification is illegal and does not conform to the original design and specifications.
A modified motorcycle will not be covered by warranty and therefore, do not modify your
motorcycle.

5. DRIVING
Keep the related parts of your body such as arms, palms, lumbar, and toes relax and ride
with the most comfortable posture in order to be able to react quickly whenever it is
necessary.
Rider’s posture will greatly affect riding safety. Always keep your body’s gravity in the center of
the saddle, if your body’s gravity is on the rear part of saddle, the front wheel load will be reduced,
and this will cause the steering handle shaking. It is dangerous to ride a motorcycle with an
unstable handle.
It will be much easier to make a turn if rider inclines his body inward when turning. On the other
hand, the rider will feel unstable if his body and the motorcycle do not incline.
The motorcycle is hard to control on a bumpy, unleveled and unpaved road. Try to know the road
conditions in advance, slow down and use your shoulder’s force to control the handle.
Suggestion: Do not load objects on the front floor. This affects the riding safety and the operation
of steering handle.
CAUTION:
The rider’s control on the steering is slightly different with a load or without a load.
Overload may cause the steering to swing and affects the riding safety.
Therefore, do not overload your motorcycle.
CAUTION:
Do not place flammable materials such as rags between the body side cover and engine to
avoid components damaging by fire.
Do not load objects on areas not specified for loading to avoid damage.
SUGGESTION
To maximize the motorcycle’s performance and prolong its service life:
The first month or first 1000km is the wear - in period for the engine and components.
Avoid rapid acceleration, and keep the speed below 60MPH.
6. USE GENUINE SPARE PARTS
In order to maintain the motorcycle’s best performance, each part’s quality, material, and machined
precision must conform to the design requirements. “E-TON Genuine Spare Parts” were made
from the same high quality materials used for the original motorcycle. No parts would be sold to the
market until they could meet the designed specifications through sophisticated engineering and
stringent quality control. Therefore, it is necessary to purchase “E-TON Genuine Spare Parts” from
“E-TON Authorized Dealers” when replacing spare parts. If you buy cheap or fake substitute parts
from the market, no guarantee can be provided either for the quality or durability. Also, it may result in
unexpected troubles and lower the motorcycle’s performance.
Always use E-TON Genuine Spare Parts to ensure its long service life.

the cap that may damage the body’s painting, in serious cases; it may cause a fireʳto burn
down the motorcycle.
Make sure the cap has been tightened properly.
BRAKE
Avoid unnecessary sudden braking.
Use front and rear wheel brakes simultaneously when braking.
Avoid brake continuously for a long period of time because that may overheat the brakes and
reduce its braking efficiency.
Slow down and brake early when riding on rainy days and slippery roads. Never apply the
brakes suddenly. This prevents skidding and falling.
Using only the front brake or the rear brake increases the risk of falling because the motorcycle
tends to be pulled to one side.

CHECKING AND CHANGING FUSES
Turn off ignition switch, and check fuses if they are intact. Replace the blown fuse with a new one
having the same specified amperage rating (10Ah2/15Ah2). Using a fuse of more than 10 or 15
amperes, a brass or iron wire to replace a blown fuse is strictly prohibited to avoid damaging the
electrical system and the circuit.
yRemove the storage box, and you’ll find the fuse holder near battery.
yOpen the fuse box cover, and pull out the fuse. Check it for damage or broken.
yFuses must be firmly secured with wire connectors when replacing. Loose connections will result
in overhead and damage.
yUse only parts having the specified specification to replace electrical components such as light
bulbs. Using parts not having the specified specifications for replacement may cause the fuse
to blow and over-discharge the battery.
yAvoid spraying water directly on or around fuse box when washing the motorcycle.
yIf the new fuse burn out quickly again, please check the faulty reason before replace it again.
Take your motorcycle to your dealer for an inspection if a fuse is blown by unknown causes.
