SAFETY

Parking the Motorcycle

When leaving the motorcycle unattended, turn the engine off and remove the ignition key. See page 74.

Park the motorcycle where people are not likely to touch the hot engine or exhaust system or place combustible
materials in close proximity to these hot areas. Do not park near a flammable source such as a kerosene heater or an
open flame, where hot components could ignite combustible materials.

Park the motorcycle on a firm, level surface. Sloped or soft surfaces may not support the motorcycle when it’s
parked, and it may tip over. If you must park on a slope or soft surface, follow the precautions outlined on page 74.

Modifications

Modifying the motorcycle by removing any equipment or by adding equipment not approved by Victory may void
your warranty. Such modifications may make the motorcycle unsafe to ride and could result in severe injury to
operator or passengers, as well as damage to the motorcycle. Some modifications may also be illegal in some states.
If in doubt, contact your authorized Victory Dealer.
