centerstand, follow these precautions
when removing the front and rear
wheel or performing other mainte-

or, if an additional motorcycle
stand is not available, by placing a
jack under the frame in front of the
rear wheel.
2. Raise the front wheel off the ground by using a motorcycle
stand.
To service the rear wheel
Raise the rear wheel off the ground by
using a motorcycle stand or, if a motor-
cycle stand is not available, by placing

frame in front of the rear wheel or under
each side of the swingarm.
