OPERATION Stopping the Engine Before stopping the engine, bring the motorcycle to a complete stop either in neutral or with the clutch disengaged. Once the motorcycle is at a complete stop, if it is not already in neutral, shift into neutral. To stop the engine, set the engine stop/run switch to the STOP position, turn the ignition switch to the OFF position, and remove the ignition key. NOTE: Idle air control (IAC) noise is a normal engine management calibration process that occurs each time the engine stop/run switch is put into the STOP position or when the key is turned off. WARNING • Stopping the engine while the motorcycle is in motion and the transmission is engaged may damage the engine and the transmission or cause the rear wheel to lose traction. In either case, you may lose control. • If the motorcycle is in motion and the engine stops on its own, guide the motorcycle to a safe location off the road and away from traffic. 72

OPERATION
Stopping the Engine
Before stopping the engine, bring the motorcycle to a complete stop either in neutral or with the clutch disengaged.
Once the motorcycle is at a complete stop, if it is not already in neutral, shift into neutral. To stop the engine, set the
engine stop/run switch to the STOP position, turn the ignition switch to the OFF position, and remove the ignition
key.
NOTE:
Idle air control (IAC) noise is a normal engine management calibration process that occurs each time the engine stop/run
switch is put into the STOP position or when the key is turned off.
•
Stopping the engine while the motorcycle is in motion and the transmission is engaged may damage the
engine and the transmission or cause the rear wheel to lose traction. In either case, you may lose
control.
•
If the motorcycle is in motion and the engine stops on its own, guide the motorcycle to a safe location
off the road and away from traffic.
