3.16 STANDS
3.16.1 CENTRE STAND
•
The centre stand position is not electronically controlled; there-
fore you can turn the engine on while the vehicle is parked. To
place the vehicle on the stand, push pin A and raise the vehicle
using the grab rail on the rear side of the saddle.
During this manoeuvre, hold the vehicle in place to pre-
vent it falling over.
3.16.2 SIDE STAND
•
It is on the left side of the vehicle (B – Fig. 23); it is controlled by
a micro switch that does not allow the engine to be started if
the stand is not properly closed.
Do not remove nor tamper with this safety device.
We advise you to regularly check the retaining system of
both stands. This system is composed of tension springs.
Always make sure that both stands are on a firm and
levelled ground. Soft or gravely soils, asphalt which be-
comes soft in the heat, etc may cause the parked vehi-
cle to fall.
Do not sit on the vehicle while it is parked on one of the
two stands.
