STAR TING THE ENGINE
Always follow the proper starting procedure
described below.
This motorcycle can be star ted with the
transmission in gear by pulling in the clutch
lever before operating the kickstarter.
Your motorcycle’s exhaust contains poisonous
carbon monoxide gas. High levels of carbon
monoxide can collect rapidly in enclosed areas
such as a garage. Do not run the engine with
the garage door closed. Even with the door
open, run the engine only long enough to
move your motorcycle out of the garage.
Do not use the electric starter for more than
5 seconds at a time. Release the starter button
for approximately 10 seconds before pressing
it again.
Preparation
Before starting, insert the key and turn the
ignition switch ON.
Make sure that the transmission is in neutral.
Turn the fuel valve ON.
