SAFETY
Transporting the Motorcycle
If you must transport the motorcycle:
S
Use a truck or trailer. Do not tow the motorcycle with another
vehicle, as towing will impair the motorcycle’s steering and
handling, which can cause loss of control.
S
Position and restrain the motorcycle so it remains upright on
the truck or trailer, as gasoline may leak out of the fuel tank if
the motorcycle leans to one side. Gasoline is a fire hazard and
it can also damage the motorcycle’s finish.
S
Place the transmission in neutral.
S
Do not restrain the motorcycle using the handlebars. Loosen
the front turn signal mounts and slide them up to make room
for the tiedown strap. Place tie-downs around the fork tubes
above the lower triple clamp. Secure the rear of the motorcycle
with tiedowns around the swingarm, being careful to avoid the
brake line, exhaust, and drive belt. Reposition the turn signals
after transportation.
