Saddlebags / Top Box (Kingpin Tour) SAFETY When operating a motorcycle with original equipment or accessory saddlebags: S Never ride at speeds exceeding 80 mph (120 km/h). Depending on load and weather conditions, the maximum safe operating speed may be less than 80 mph (120 km/h). Saddlebags, combined with the lifting or buffeting effects of wind, can make the motorcycle unstable and cause loss of control. S Distribute weight evenly in each of the saddlebags. S Do not exceed the maximum cargo weight limit of the saddlebags. Accessory leather saddlebags, semi-hard saddlebags, or hard saddlebags = 7 lbs. (3.2 kg) each Top Box weight capacity (Kingpin Tour) = 20 lbs. (9.0 kg) S Do not exceed the motorcycle's gross vehicle weight rating. Exceeding the weight rating can reduce stability and handling and cause loss of control. Modifications Modifying the motorcycle by removing any equipment or by adding equipment not approved by VICTORY may void your warranty. Such modifications may make the motorcycle unsafe to ride and could result in severe injury to operator or passengers, as well as damage to the motorcycle. Some modifications may also be illegal in some states. If in doubt, contact your authorized VICTORY Dealer. When leaving the motorcycle unattended, turn the engine off and remove the ignition key. See page 77. Park the motorcycle where people are not likely to touch the hot engine or exhaust system or place combustible materials in close proximity to these hot areas. Do not park near a flammable source such as a kerosene heater or an open flame, where hot components could ignite combustible materials. Park the motorcycle on a firm, level surface. Sloped or soft surfaces may not support the motorcycle when it's parked, and it may tip over. If you must park on a slope or soft surface, follow the precautions outlined on page 77. 17 Parking the Motorcycle
