Instruments, Features and Controls
Saddlebags
Soft Bag Removal
1. Unbuckle the saddlebag
lid clasps and open the lid.
2. Flip the two quick-release
latches upward.
3. Tilt the saddlebag away
from the fender and lift
upward to remove it from
the spools.
WARNING! Improper saddlebag
installation can result in loss of
control, accident and driving
hazards for other motorists (if
saddlebag falls from the
motorcycle). Always make sure
saddlebag mounting brackets are
fully seated onto the spools before engaging latches.
4. To reinstall, place the soft bag in position. Make sure the
mounting bracket is seated fully on the spool. Make sure
the rubber bushings on the latch pins are fully engaged
in the spools.
5. Engage the quick-release latches and flip them fully
downward.
Sidestand
The sidestand is equipped with a safety switch that prevents
operation of the motorcycle if the sidestand is deployed.
WARNING! An improperly retracted sidestand could contact the
ground and cause a loss of control resulting in serious injury or
death. Always retract the sidestand fully before operating the
motorcycle.
To park the motorcycle, swing the end of the sidestand
downward and away from the motorcycle until it is fully
extended. Always turn the handlebars to the left for
maximum stability. Lean the motorcycle to the left until the
sidestand firmly supports the motorcycle.
CAUTION! If the motorcycle weight is not resting on the sidestand,
it will not lock. In this situation, any movement of the motorcycle
could cause the sidestand to retract slightly. If the sidestand is not in
the full forward position when the motorcycle weight is rested on it,
the motorcycle could fall over, possibly causing injury and damage to
the motorcycle.
To retract the sidestand, straddle the motorcycle and bring
it to the fully upright position. Swing the end of the sidestand
upward and toward the motorcycle until it is fully retracted.
Mirrors
Your vehicle is equipped with convex mirrors. Objects seen
in a mirror may be closer than they appear. Always adjust
mirrors before riding.
To adjust the mirrors, sit on the motorcycle in the anticipated
riding position. Adjust the mirrors so that you can see a
small portion of your shoulders in each mirror.
