Safe Riding Practices
• When approaching a curve, choose a speed and lean angle that allows you to pass through
the curve in your own lane without applying the brakes. Excessive speed, improper lean
angle or braking in a curve can cause loss of control.
• Ground clearance is reduced when the motorcycle leans. Do not allow components to con-
tact the road surface when leaning the motorcycle in a curve, as this could cause loss of
control.
• Retract the sidestand fully before riding. If the sidestand is not fully retracted, it could con-
tact the road surface and cause loss of control.
• Do not tow a trailer. Towing a trailer can make the motorcycle hard to handle.
