ALWAYS WEAR A HELMET
The operator and passenger (if any) of this vehicle should always wear a helmet
approved by agencies such as the Department of Transportation (DOT), Safety
Helmet Council of America (SHCA), or Snell Memorial Foundation (SNELL). Most
accident fatalities are due to head injuries. The operator should also wear face
shields or goggles, boots or closed-toe shoes, gloves and other appropriate
protective clothing.

BEFORE RIDING
Before your first ride on your new motorcycle we strongly recommend you:
Read the owner’s manual.
Understand all safety labels.
Know how to operate all controls.
Before you ride each time, make sure:
You are in good physical and mental health.
You are wearing protective gear (helmet, clothing, eye protection etc.) If you
have a passenger, be sure also having protective wears for passenger.
You do not have ANY alcohol or drugs in your system.
Protective Clothing
For your protection we urge you to ALWAYS wear protective clothing. The proper
clothes can protect you from injury. Wear an approved motorcycle helmet, goggles,
a good pair of gloves, strong boots that cover the ankle, long pants, and a long
sleeve shirt every time you ride.
Helmets and Eye protection
A DOT approved motorcycle helmet is the most important part of your protective
gear. A DOT approved motorcycle helmet can help prevent a serious head injury.
Choose a helmet that fits snug. Motorcycle dealers can help in selecting a good
quality helmet which fits properly.
Not wearing a helmet greatly increases your chances of serious head injuries or
death in the event of an accident.
If you are riding with a passenger be sure they are also wearing a helmet and eye
protection.

STARTING AND STOPPING THE ENGINE, SHIFTING GEARS
How to stop the engine
Normal Engine Stop
Shift into neutral and turn the ignition switch “OFF”.
DO NOT leave the ignition switch “ON”while the engine stop switch if “OFF”,
this will allow the lights to stay “ON”causing the battery to lose life.
Emergency Engine Stop
If an emergency stop is necessary, use the engine stop switch. Simply press the
emergency stop switch to “OFF”.
Shifting Gears
Your motorcycle is equipped with a cable-operated
clutch. It has five forward gears, one down and four up.
Tips for learning how to shift for the inexperienced rider:
Shift while moving a straight line.
Let loose on the throttle and pull in clutch lever
completely before shifting (improper shifting may cause damage to the engine).
Recognize the engaging point when you release the clutch lever.
Tips for learning how to shift for the inexperienced rider (continued):
Reduce the throttle or shift to a higher gear before engine RPM’s get too high.
Shift to a lower gear before the engine RPM’s get too low.
When the engine RPM’s are too high do not downshift to slow your motorcycle,
this could cause damage.
Do not coast or tow your motorcycle for a long period of time while the engine is
off.
If your speed drops below 9mph (15km/h) pull in clutch lever and shift down to
1st gear or stalling can occur.
Recommended shift point
To get the best fuel economy possible ride in the highest gear that allows the engine
to run and accelerate the smoothest.
Shifting up from:
1st to 2nd - 12mph (20km/h)
2nd to 3rd - 19mph (30km/h)
3rd to 4th - 25mph (40km/h)
4th to 5th - 31mph (50km/h)
Shifting down from:
5th to 4th - 22mph (35km/h)
4th to 3rd - 16mph (25km/h)

13
BRAKING
Your motorcycle is equipped with a hand operated front hydraulic disc brake and a
foot operated rear hydraulic disc brake. Your front brake provides 70% of your
braking power. By using both front and rear brakes you will achieve faster, more
stable and effective braking.
To slow down or stop your motorcycle apply front and rear brakes while down
shifting. Slowly increase brake as you feel your speed reduce. In order to prevent
stalling, pull in clutch lever before stopping completely.
If you apply you brakes too abruptly you may lock the wheels, slide and lose control
of your motorcycle. If this should happen, release the brakes and steer straight until
you have completely regained control.
Before making a turn, reduce your speed. Try not to brake or close the throttle too
quickly while turning or you may lose control of your motorcycle.
When traveling down a steep grade, reduce your speed by down shifting rather than
braking. Applying your brakes for a long period of time can reduce their effectiveness.
You should never ride with your foot resting on the brake pedal or you hand on the
brake lever. This may cause your brakes to overheat and indicate false braking to
other motorist’s.
PARKING
Try, when possible, to park on level ground. If you have no paved surface to park on,
make sure the ground is firm. If it is necessary for you to park on a hill, position your
rear wheel against the curb at an angle and leave the transmission in gear.
While parked, use the side stand for support.
-Use your foot to guide the side stand down.
-Put something solid under the side stand if you must park on a soft surface.
Theft-Prevention tips
You should park your motorcycle in a garage if possible, otherwise make
certain to park in a well lit area.
Never leave the ignition key with the motorcycle.
You should invest in a good quality anti-theft device that will secure your
motorcycle to a stationary object.
Keep the owner’s manual, registration and insurance with the motorcycle to
help authorities find you if it has been stolen and recovered.

This portion of the manual will tell you how often to perform maintenance. The
maintenance schedule is based on average riding conditions. If you ride more
frequently than usual and in dusty or wet weather be sure to maintain your bike
more often. We recommend that you have your local service center perform
extensive maintenance and repairs unless you have advanced mechanical skills.
Every maintenance item requires some mechanical knowledge. Some parts require
more technical information and tools than others.
* Unless you have proper tools and service information, have your local service
center perform these tasks.
** For safety reason, ONLY your local service center should perform these tasks.
NOTES:
1. Repeat the frequency interval at higher odometer readings.
2. Service more frequently if you are ridding in dusty or wet areas.
