Stopping the motorcycle Reduce speed, shift down and release the throttle twistgrip. Shift down to engage first gear and then neutral. Apply the brakes and bring the motorcycle to a complete stop. To switch the engine off, simply turn the key to OFF (page 246). Attention The exhaust system might be hot, even after engine is switched off; take special care not to touch the exhaust system with any body part and do not park the vehicle next to flammable material (wood, leaves etc.). Attention Using padlocks or other locks designed to prevent motorcycle motion, such as brake disk locks, rear sprocket locks, etc. is dangerous and may impair motorcycle operation and affect the safety of rider and passenger. Parking Park the stopped motorcycle on the side stand. To prevent theft, turn the handlebar fully left and turn the ignition key to the LOCK position. If you park in a garage or other indoor area, make sure that there is proper ventilation and that the motorcycle is not near a source of heat. Important Never leave the ignition key in the switch when you are leaving your bike unattended. 278
