NOTE

• While the engine is cold, the fast idle system automatically raises the engine idling speed. At this time, the engine warning indicator () may go on if you operate the throttle grip unnecessarily.
• The motorcycle is equipped with a vehicle-down sensor which causes the engine to stop automatically if the motorcycle falls down. After righting the motorcycle, first turn the ignition key to “OFF” and then back to “ON” before starting the engine.
• Without holding the throttle grip, push the starter button to start the engine.

NOTICE
Do not operate the starter continuously for more than 5 seconds, or the starter will overheat and the battery power will drop temporarily. Wait for 15 seconds between each operation of the starter to let it cool and the battery power recovers.

NOTE
The motorcycle is equipped with a starter lockout switch. This switch is designed so that the engine does not start if the transmission is in gear and the side stand is down. However, the engine can be stated if the clutch lever is pulled and the side stand is fully up.
