TIP
This model is equipped with a lean
angle sensor to stop the engine in
case of a turnover. To start the en-
gine after a turnover, be sure to turn
the main switch to “OFF” and then to
“ON”. Failing to do so will prevent the
engine from starting even though the
engine will crank when pushing the
start switch.

NOTICE
See page 5-3 for engine break-in
instructions prior to operating the
vehicle for the fi rst time.
In order for the ignition circuit cut-off
system to enable starting, the sides-
tand must be up.
See page 3-12 for more information.
1. Turn the key to “ON”.
2. Close the throttle completely.
3. Start the engine by pushing the
start switch while applying the

If the engine does not start, re-
lease the start switch, wait a few
seconds, and then try again.
Each starting attempt should be
as short as possible to preserve
the battery. Do not crank the en-
gine more than 5 seconds on any
one attempt. If the engine does
not start with the starter motor, try
using the kickstarter.
