PRE-OPERATION CHECKS
EAU15592
The condition of a vehicle is the owner’s responsibility. Vital components can start to deteriorate quickly and unexpectedly,
even if the vehicle remains unused (for example, as a result of exposur\
e to the elements). Any damage, fluid leakage or loss
of tire air pressure could have serious consequences. Therefore, it is very important, in addition to a thorough visual inspection,
to check the following points before each ride.Pre-operation checks should be made each time the vehicle is used. Such an inspection can be accomplished in a very short
time; and the added safety it assures is more than worth the time involved.
EWA11150
If any item in the Pre-operation check list is not working properly, have it inspected and repaired before operating
the vehicle.

of the tires equals the ambient
temperature).

The tire air pressure must be
adjusted in accordance with the
riding speed and with the total

passenger, cargo, and
accessories does not exceed the
specified maximum load for the
vehicle.

MOTORCYCLE CARE AND STORAGE
7pedals as well as of the sidestand/
centerstand.
5. Check and, if necessary, correct the tire air pressure, and then lift
the motorcycle so that both of its
wheels are off the ground.
Alternatively, turn the wheels a little
every month in order to prevent the
tires from becoming degraded in
one spot.
6. Cover the muffler outlets with plastic bags to prevent moisture
from entering them.
7. Remove the battery and fully charge it. Store it in a cool, dry
place and charge it once a month.
Do not store the battery in an
excessively cold or warm place
[less than 0 °C (30 °F) or more than
30 °C (90 °F)]. For more information
on storing the battery, see page
6-25~6-26.
Make any necessary repairs before
storing the motorcycle.
