paragraphs concerning riding safety and use of the motorcycle itself.
• For servicing, extraordinary maintenance, spare parts and accessories always and exclusively
refer to Moto Morini S.r.l. Authorised Service Centres.

Basic rules
• It is necessary to have all the requirements provided for by law in order to ride the motorcycle:
minimum age, psychophysical eligibility, etc. in addition to the country-specific required
documentation: driving licence, registration, road tax, insurance, number plate.
• Good psychophysical conditions are essential for safety while riding the motorcycle. Drugs,
alcohol abuse, psychotropic drugs etc., in addition to physical weariness and sleepiness can
cause very dangerous situations.
• It is advised to use a helmet, in compliance with the current regulations in the reference country.
• It is advised to use all protective devices, reinforced jacket, boots and gloves.
• It is advised to become familiar with the motorcycle by initially riding it in low-traffic areas.
• A good percentage of motorcycle accidents are caused by the rider’s inexperience.
• Never lend the motorcycle to beginners or inexperienced riders.
• Ride in a seated position, both hands firmly placed on the handlebar and feet correctly placed
on the footrests. Avoid standing up and stretching out the legs while riding. In case of numbness
of the limbs on long-distance routes, do not hesitate to stop in specific rest areas and do some
simple exercise to restore blood flow and tone up the muscles. Never ride in a state of physical
weariness or drowsiness.
•Rigorously abide by signage and national/local rules.
• Keep a safe distance from other vehicles when riding in a straight line.
• Always ride with the low beam switched on, even in daylight.
• Avoid abrupt and potentially dangerous moves.
• Adjust your riding style according to road surface.

7
• Adjust your riding style according to the additional load carried on the motorcycle, especially in
presence of a passenger.
• It is forbidden to challenge other vehicles’ drivers on public roads.
• Avoid riding the motorcycle off-road as much as possible.
• When the road is wet or slippery, ride with maximum concentration. Use the brakes gently and
mainly use the engine brake.
• Always ride so to be very visible in every condition. Do not ride in the “blind spots” of the
vehicles in front of you.
• Pay extreme attention at crossroads that have no traffic lights, when close to an access to
private areas or public parking areas, in entry lanes to ring roads or motorways.
• When refuelling the motorcycle, always switch the engine off. Do not smoke when performing
the aforementioned operation.
• Remove the ignition key during stops (even short ones) if the motorcycle is left unattended.
• Park the motorcycle so that it cannot be bumped into, especially by pedestrians as the engine,
the exhaust pipes and the silencer maintain a high temperature for a long time.
•Never park on rough or soft terrains or asphalt that has been softened by sunlight.
• Changes of direction or lane, side street turns, pull overs for parking or stopping must always be
signalled well in advance by using the direction indicators.
• Whenever close to crossroads, stops, traffic lights, level crossings, holes, ditches, speed bumps
and any other perceivable obstacle, slow down in time with moderation.
• When the engine is switched off and the ignition key is positioned to “ON”, the low beam
switches off after a few seconds.

8
• Before every trip, always check: tyre wear and pressure, efficiency of the lighting and braking
systems, engine oil and coolant levels.
• Only use the products recommended by Moto Morini S.r.l. In case of any top-ups, avoid mixing
different, incompatible oils with one another.
• Do not ride with the helmet hanging off your arm or off the handlebar, even for short
commutes. The helmet must be worn during every motorcycle ride (this applies to the passenger
as well).
• Never distract oneself or get distracted while riding.
• Do not use mobile or audio devices while riding.
• Do not use earphones, only use appropriately homologated devices for these purposes.
• Alterations and tampering (even minor ones) exempt the manufacturer from any responsibility
regarding any kind of damage and cause the termination of the warranty rights.

WARNING!
Do not ride in the stream of the vehicles ahead.
Do not ride paired up to other riders.
Do not tow or get towed by other vehicles.
Do not sit on the motorcycle while it is parked on the kickstand.
Do not put the motorcycle on the kickstand when the travel direction goes downhill.
Do not start the engine in indoor spaces.
Do not ride on pedestrians’ walks, under covered walks, on public park lawns, etc.
Do not keep pointy or fragile objects in your pockets while riding.
Do not ride in case of adverse weather conditions (temperatures close to 0° C, ice, snow,
heavy rain, etc.).

10
Clothing
• Appropriate clothing consists of protective garments in light or refractive colours in order to always be
perfectly visible even in poor visibility conditions. Avoid any loose-hanging tails, unbuttoned jackets,
excessively heavy or tight gloves and inappropriate shoes.
Riding with a passenger
• Carrying a passenger on the seat influences the riding to a great extent. The weight has a direct
effect on the tyres, whose pressure will need to be increased and on the rear shock absorber,
that will have to be calibrated properly. The braking distance is considerably longer and bends
have to be taken at a wider range, with a reduced lean angle and measured throttle opening. A
higher degree of caution is also mandatory.
• Both rider and passenger must necessarily wear homologated, properly tied up helmets. The
helmet must be properly sized, intact and with a perfectly clean visor.
• Briefly instruct the passenger on the behaviour they will have to adopt before every trip (even
short ones): do not make any abrupt move during the ride, do not place the feet on the ground
during short rests such as stop signs or traffic light stops, do not look over the sides during the
ride to look ahead, do not turn the head backwards and, above all, do not counterbalance the
curve preparation set by the rider.
•Clear display of passenger anxiety must necessarily lead to highly cautious and careful driving.

11
WARNING!
Do not carry elderly or disabled people, children or animals.
Do not carry children on the motorcycle tank.
Accessories
• Moto Morini S.r.l. shall not be liable for any kind of damage resulting from the use of
unexpected, non-homologated or in any way incompatible accessories according to the
structural features of the motorcycle or accessories that have not been installed following
the technical specifications of said accessory’s manufacturer or Moto Morini S.r.l. (example:
windscreen, luggage rack, top case, side panniers or bags, fairings, additional lights, etc.).
• The motorcycle user is responsible for the choice, set-up and practical use of the accessories.
During set-up, it is important to verify that the visual and acoustic indication devices are not
covered, the suspension travel and steering angle are not limited, the use of control devices is
not hindered and ground clearance and leaning angle are not reduced.
• Always check that the accessories are properly attached to the motorcycle, especially in view of
long journeys.
•Any accessory that modifies side and/or frontal clearances can cause vehicle imbalance, even if
it is an original Moto Morini accessory. In these cases, it is advised not to exceed a 130 Km/h
speed even if allowed.

12
NOTE
Always use original Moto Morini S.r.l. Accessories, set up by the Authorised Service Centre.
Load (Baggage)
• Baggage must be loaded so that its total weight is equally distributed on both sides of the
vehicle, as close to its barycentre as possible. Baggage must be securely attached to the vehicle
and it is good practice to check its correct anchoring during stops. A poorly anchored bag can
make the motorcycle unsteady and cause extremely dangerous situations.
WARNING!
Non posizionare ai lati del motociclo bagagli troppo ingombranti; potrebbero urtare
ostacoli o persone, causando la perdita di controllo del motociclo stesso.
Non ssare oggetti di nessun genere sul manubrio.
Non ssare oggetti di nessun genere sul parafango anteriore o in prossimità della forcella. Si
determinerebbe un inevitabile comportamento di scarsa maneggevolezza e si pregiudicherebbe
il regolare usso di aria al radiatore, con il pericoloso rischio di surriscaldamento del motore.
Non trasportare bagagli, o oggetti vari, che sporgano eccessivamente dal portabagagli o
che coprano i dispositivi di illuminazione e di segnalazione.
Non superare il limite massimo di peso sopportabile dal portabagagli. Il sovraccarico è
sempre una fonte di pericolosità nella guida del motociclo.
Non eccedere con il carico sul serbatoio, in modo particolare in altezza.
