IV Riding The vehicle
(1) Daily checks
The following checks must always be carried out
before riding the vehicle in order to ensure trouble-
free operation. Failure to comply with this rule may
lead to serious injuries and damage to the vehicle.
Engine oil
Check Level.
Gear oil
Check For Leaks.
Braking system
Check the levers are not
sticking, Check the brake fluid
level and system for leaks.
Lights,
Indicators, Horn
Check all are working.
Tyres
Check for correct inflation
pressure, wear/damage.
Centre/Side
Stand
Check they retract properly.
Fuel Tank
Check the fuel level and ensure
there are no leaks.

(2) Tyre Pressures and Size
Tyre pressures must always be checked when the
tyres are cold. Incorrect tyre inflation will cause
abnormal tread wear and instability problems that
may lead to loss of control and an accident resulting
in serious damage and injuries.
Front Tyre Pressure
2.5 bar (36 psi)
Rear Tyre Pressure
2.5 bar (36 psi)
Tyre Size
110/70 –12PR
(3) Refuelling
Follow the procedure described in (III). (4) Fuel
tank section of this handbook to access the fuel
tank and refuel your vehicle.
Fuel Tank Capacity: approx. 6.8 litres
During refuelling, the ignition switch must be in
the OFF position. Petrol (fuel) is highly flammable;
do not smoke; keep away from sources of ignition;
do not inhale petrol fumes.
To prevent damage, ensure that petrol does not
spill onto the plastic fairings of the vehicle.

(4) Starting The Engine
Once all checks described in the IV.(1) Daily checks
section have been carried out, you may proceed to
start engine as follows:
Place the vehicle on its centre stand with the rear
wheel lifted off the ground.
Insert the key in the ignition switch (1) and rotate it to
(ON).
Keep the throttle control in the closed position.
While pulling the either brake lever press the
starter button (2) as shown.
(1) (2)
Never start the engine without its air box.
Dust or foreign objects may enter the engine and
damage it.
After starting the engine ride at moderate
speed during the first few minutes. A correct engine
warm-up limits the emissions and reduces fuel
consumption.
To prevent damage, do not rev up the engine
when cold. To safeguard the integrity and lifespan of
the engine, avoid riding at high revs for long periods.
Do not suddenly switch off the vehicle after riding
for a long time at the maximum speed; let it run at
idle for a few seconds.

(5) Stopping The Engine
Bring the vehicle to a halt and rotate the ignition
switch to the (OFF) position
With the ignition switch in this position, it is not
possible to start the engine, the key may be removed
and the steering lock is not engaged.
(6) Running-In
A period of careful running-in will ensure the
longevity of the engine.
YOU MUST ALWAYS HAVE YOUR VEHICLE
UNDERGO ROUTINE SERVICE FOLLOWING THE
SERVICE SCHEDULE. THE FIRST SERVICE IS OF GREAT
IMPORTANCE.

Important Notice
The first 1,000 km represent the most critical period in the life of your vehicle. A period of careful running-in
will optimise the performance, and longevity of the engine and other components. All Motorini parts have
been made using the highest quality materials and have been machined with minimal tolerances. A correct
running-in allows all components to ‘bed-in’ thereby reducing internal frictions.
The reliability and performance of your vehicle depend on how strictly you follow the instructions provided
within this section. It is important that you prevent the engine from overheating.
Engine speed should be varied constantly and it must not be allowed to remain constant for a long period of
time. This ensures that engine components are not being excessively stressed, thus allowing them to cool
down and to bed in properly. You must always ensure that engine components are not being overstressed by
avoiding high engine speeds.
The first service, at the 1,000 km (600 miles) mark, is the most important one for your vehicle. During running-
in all components will bed-in, thus requiring all adjustments to be checked, all fixings to be tighten and engine
oil to be replaced.
Performing such operations as soon as possible after the first 1,000 km (600 miles) will ensure the longevity
and optimal performance of your engine.
NB: The 1,000 km (600 miles) service must be carried out according to the “Scheduled Maintenance” section of
this handbook.
