Operation
Starting the Engine
7. Press and release the starter switch to start the engine.
The starter motor will crank until the engine starts, but
no more than 3 seconds. If the engine does not start, wait
five seconds, then try again.
8. If starting a COOL engine, DO NOT open the throttle
while starting. Idle speed is computer controlled and
idle speed will adjust automatically. Allow the engine to
warm up for 30 seconds minimum at low RPM after
starting. Do not run the engine above 2500 RPM.
If starting a WARM engine, DO NOT open the throttle
while starting.
9. If either the check engine indicator or the low oil
pressure indicator (or display) remains on after the
engine starts, stop the engine immediately. Refer to the
low oil pressure indicator/display information on page
30.
NOTICE: Operating an engine with a misfire or non-firing cylinder
can overheat the catalytic converter, which could result in
catalytic converter damage and loss of emission control.
DO NOT OPERATE the motorcycle if a misfire or non-firing
cylinder exists.
10. Leave the throttle closed and allow the engine to idle.
Idle speed will gradually slow to normal as the engine
warms to operating temperature.
Tip: Do not rev the engine or put the transmission in gear
immediately after starting the engine. Allow the engine to idle
for about 30 seconds after a warm start or at least one minute
after a cold start (longer in cold weather). This will allow oil to
reach all areas before the engine is put under load.
NOTICE: Do not run the engine at high RPM with the clutch
disengaged or the transmission in neutral. Maximum safe
engine speed is 8300 RPM. Never exceed the maximum
safe RPM as this could result in serious engine damage.
