Foreword
NOTE
Carry out maintenance operations at half the intervals specified if the vehicle is used rainy or dust conditions, off road
or for track use.
Motorcycle care
F.B Mondial recommends using quality products to clean the vehicle. The use of unsuitable products can damage vehicle
components. For cleaning do not use solvents such as” nitro thinner ” or ” cold cleaning agents ”, fuels or similar, or cleaning
products that contain alcohol.
Before cleaning
•Close off the exhaust system to avoid water from entering
•Make sure that all caps and covers as well as electrical couplers and connectors, including the spark plug(s) are properly
tightly installed.
•First, remove coarse dirt particles with a gentle spray of water. Spray very dirty areas with a normal motorcycle cleaner and
then clean with a brush.
Washing the motorcycle
F.B Mondial recommends softening with plenty of water and then, carefully remove the insects and more stubborn stains before
washing the vehicle. To prevent stains, do not wash the motorcycle immediately after exposure to sunlight.
Do not wash it in the sun.
If the vehicle is used during the wintertime, be sure to frequently wash the motorcycle. To remove anti-icing salt sprayed on roads
in the winter, wash the motorcycle with chilly water immediately after use.
CAUTION
After cleaning your motorcycle, the efficiency of the braking system may be temporarily affected due to the presence
of water on the friction surfaces. You must consider an increase in braking space, operate the brakes repeatedly to
restore normal conditions. Carry out the pre-ride checks before use.
Use of hot water intensifies the effect of the salt. Use only plenty of chilly water to wash and remove anti-icing salt.
Use of high-pressure washing systems (or steam cleaners) can damage the seals, oil seals, braking system,
electrical system and seat. Do not use steam or high-pressure cleaning systems.

GENERAL RULES
7
Cleaning of sensitive parts
Bodywork
To keep the motorcycle bright, wash it regularly, especially if used in areas with elevated levels of pollution or mud. Aggressive
stains from tree resins, gasoline, oil, brake fluid or bird excrement in general must be removed immediately, otherwise
permanent stains on the paint can appear. After washing it is easy to identify marks and residual stains, remove them from the
body using a soft cloth, non-abrasive polish, and protect with a protective wax for cars. Periodic care, a thorough cleaning and
regular protective wax for the bodywork preserves the aesthetic quality of the motorcycle over the long term.
Plastic components
If the plastic components are cleaned using aggressive agents, the surface may be damaged.
Do not use cleaning products containing alcohol, solvents or that are abrasive for the cleaning of plastic parts.
Rotatory brushes or sponges with hard surfaces can cause scratches.
Chrome parts and polished metal
Treat the chromed parts like aluminium or polished steel in a special manner.
Wash them with plenty of water car shampoo, polish and regularly brighten them with polishing.
Products, protect them with waxes or suitable acid-free products ( e.g., Vaseline).
Radiator
If using the motorcycle in the winter on roads with de-icing salt, regularly wash the radiator to prevent
aesthetic damage and the engine from overheating.
Wash using plenty of water, for example, use a garden hose with water at low pressure.
Rubber parts
Clean the rubber parts by using water and mild shampoo (product for car wash).
The silicone spray usage to clean the rubber seals may cause damage.
Do not use other products containing silicon for cleaning the motorcycle.

GENERAL RULES

Carbon monoxide
All engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a deadly gas. If you need to keep the engine running to perform a procedure, please
ensure that you do so in an undeveloped area or very well-ventilated. Never let the engine run in an enclosed area. If you do work
in a closed area, make sure to use a smoke extraction system.
•Exhaust emissions contain carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas which can cause loss of consciousness and even
death.
•Carbon monoxide is odourless and colourless, therefore it cannot be detected by smell, sight or other sense.
Do not breathe in exhaust fumes under any circumstances.
Fuel
•The fuel used to power internal combustion engines is highly flammable and maybe explosive under certain
conditions. It is therefore recommended to carry out refuelling and maintenance procedures in a ventilated area
with the engine switched off. Do not smoke during refuelling and near fuel vapours, avoiding any contact with
naked flames, sparks, or other sources which may cause them to ignite or explode.
Do not disperse fuel in the environment.
Keep out of the reach of children.
If the vehicle falls or is on a steep incline, fuel can leak.
NOTE
•This mark identifies the recommended fuel for this vehicle as specified by European regulation (EN 228)
•Check that gasoline nozzle has the same identifier when refuelling.

GENERAL RULES
9
•Avoid spilling fuel off the filler cap as it may catch fire in contact with the engine hot surfaces. In case of
accidental fuel spills, check that the area is completely dry before starting the vehicle.
Fuel expands when exposed to heat or sun rays, therefore be careful and do not overfill the fuel tank.
Stop filling when the fuel reaches the bottom of filler tube.
•Make sure that the fuel tank cap is properly installed before riding. Leaking fuel is a fire hazard.
•Be careful that fuel does not get into contact with the skin. Do not inhale vapours or to swallow fuel.
•Do not transfer fuel from one container to another using a hose.
Hot components
The engine or exhaust system components become very hot and remain in this condition for a certain time interval
after the engine has been switched off. Before handling these components, make sure that you are wearing insulating
gloves or wait until the engine and exhaust system have cooled down.
Coolant
The coolant contains ethylene glycol which, under certain conditions, can be become flammable. When ethylene glycol
burns, it produces an invisible flame which can nevertheless cause burns.
•Take care not to pour coolant onto hot engine or exhaust system components.
The fluid may catch fire and burn with invisible flames. When carrying out maintenance operations, it is advisable
to wear latex gloves. Even though it is toxic, coolant has a sweet flavour which makes it very attractive to animals.
Never leave the coolant in open containers in area, accessible to animals as they may drink it.
Keep out of the reach of children.
•Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is still hot. The coolant is under pressure and may cause burns.

GENERAL RULES
10
Engine oil and gearbox oil used.
CAUTION
It is advisable to wear protective impermeable gloves when servicing the vehicle.
The engine or gearbox oil may cause serious injuries to the skin if handled for prolonged periods of time and on a
regular basis.
Wash your hands carefully after handling oil.
Hand the oil over to or have it collected by the nearest used oil recycling company or the supplier.
Do not dispose oil in the environment.
Keep out of the reach of children.
Brake fluid
CAUTION
Brake fluids can damage the plastic or rubber painted surfaces.
When servicing braking system, protect these components with a clean cloth.
Always wear protective goggles when servicing these systems.
Brake fluids are extremely harmful for your eyes.
In the event of accidental contact with the eyes, rinse them immediately with abundant cold, clean water and seek
medical advice.

GENERAL RULES
11
Battery hydrogen gas and electrolyte
The battery electrolyte is toxic, corrosive and it contains sulfuric acid, it can cause burns when is in contact with the
skin while handling battery electrolyte, wear tight fitting gloves and protective apparel.
In the event of skin contact with the electrolyte fluid, rinse well with plenty of clean water.
It is particularly important to protect your eyes, because even tiny amounts of battery acid may cause blindness.
If the fluid gets in contact with your eyes, wash with abundant water for fifteen minutes and consult an eye specialist
immediately. The battery releases explosive gases; keep it away from flames, sparks, cigarettes or any other heat
sources. Ensure adequately ventilation when servicing or recharging the battery.
Battery liquid is corrosive. Do Not pour it or overthrow it, particularly on plastic components. Ensure that the
electrolytic acid is compatible with the battery to be activated.
Side stand
Reporting of defects that affect safety
Unless otherwise specified in this Owner’s Manual, do not remove any mechanical or electrical component.
Before setting off, make sure the side stand has been completely retracted to its position.
Do not rest the rider’s or passenger’s weight on the stand.
CAUTION
Some connectors in the vehicle may be accidentally swapped and may compromise normal vehicle operation if
incorrectly installed. Some operations are complicated and risky. For any procedure that is complicated or for any
operations not described in this booklet, contact a F.B Mondial Official Dealer. If you are adequately trained and
experienced, refer to the instructions in the workshop booklet available also at any F.B Mondial Official Dealer.
