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 contact 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 contact the road surface and cause loss of control.

• Do not tow a trailer. Towing a trailer can make the motorcycle hard to control.
