Holes in the pavement.
c.
Rough road surfaces.
Any two-wheeled vehicle may be subjectto theseforces influencing thehandling characteristics of the

not brake abruptly or force the handlebar. This may aggravate the unstable condition.
Do not allow othersunder any circumstances to operate your motorcycle unless you know they are
experienced, licensed riders and familiar with the operation of your particular motorcycle.
Protect your motorcycle from theft. After parking your motorcycle, lock the steering head and remove the
key from the ignition switch.
New riders should gain experience under various conditions while driving at various speeds. Operate your

Accessories that change the operator’s riding position may increase reaction time and affect the handling
of the motorcycle.
Additional electrical equipment may cause overload of the motorcycle's electrical system and an
electrical system and/or component failure. Additional electrical load will also drain the batteriesfaster,
resulting in reduced travel distance and more frequent recharging.
