Dear Customer,
•Congratulations on your excellent choice.
•Your new motorcycle is the result of the strictest tests and it represents the most up-to-date dis-
play of technology in this field.
•A trouble-free operation of the motorcycle through time depends on the use it will be subjected to
and on appropriate maintenance. For this reason, we strongly suggest you conform to the infor-
mation stated in this booklet, which must be carefully read before operating the motorcycle and
will have to be consulted any time there is even the smallest doubt. In case you should lend your
motorcycle (we strongly discourage doing so) to a friend, make sure they have read the para-
graphs concerning riding safety and use of the motorcycle itself.
•For servicing, extraordinary maintenance, spare parts and accessories always and exclusively
refer to Moto Morini authorized Service Centers.
•This manual must be preserved for the whole life of the motorcycle and in case of transfer of title
it will have to be handed over to the new owner.
•All information reported in this manual is up-to-date as of printing date.
•Moto Morini reserves the right to apply all changes required by the evolution and development of
its motorcycles without notice obligation.
Always abide by the traffic laws, ride carefully and... Have a good journey!

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
license, registration, road tax, insurance, number plate etc..
•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 dan-
gerous 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.

EN - 7
•Adjust your riding style according to the additional load carried on the motorcycle, especially in pres-
ence 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 refueling the motorcycle, always switch the engine off. Do not smoke when performing the afore-
mentioned 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 sig-
naled 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

EN - 8
after a few seconds.
•Before every trip, always check: tire wear and pressure, efficiency of the lighting and braking systems,
engine oil and coolant levels.
•Only use the products recommended by Moto Morini. 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 regard-
ing any kind of damage and cause the termination of the warranty rights
