Loading
Adding accessories or cargo to your
motorcycle can adversely affect sta-
bility and handling if the weight distri-
bution of the motorcycle is changed.
To avoid the possibility of an acci-
dent, use extreme caution when
adding cargo or accessories to your
motorcycle. Use extra care when
riding a motorcycle that has added
cargo or accessories. Here, along
with the information about accesso-
ries below, are some general guideli-
nes to follow if loading cargo to yourmotorcycle:
The total weight of the operator, pas-
senger, accessories and cargo must
not exceed the maximum load limit.
Operation of an overloaded vehicle
could cause an accident.
When loading within this weight limit,
keep the following in mind:
●Cargo and accessory weight
should be kept as low and close
to the motorcycle as possible.
Securely pack your heaviest
items as close to the center of
the vehicle as possible and make
sure to distribute the weight as
evenly as possible on both sides
of the motorcycle to minimize
imbalance or instability.
●Shifting weights can create a
sudden imbalance. Make sure
that accessories and cargo are
securely attached to the
motorcycle before riding. Check
accessory mounts and cargo res-
traints frequently.• Properly adjust the suspension
for your load (suspension-
adjustable models only), and
check the condition and pres-
sure of your tires.
• Never attach any large or
heavy items to the handlebar,
front fork, or front fender. The-
se items, including such cargo
as sleeping bags, duffel bags,
or tents, can create unstable
handling or a slow steering res-
ponse.
●This vehicle is not designed to
pull a trailer or to be attached
to a sidecar.
