Important Notes:
- Please take into account that fitting panniers, crash bars, foot peg lowering kits (rider and pillion), Kickstand enlargement plate, front spoilers and engine guards may restrict the bike's lean angle!
- If modifications are made to the fairing, stem, handlebar, fairing parts, etc., ensure that electrical wiring, brake lines, accelerator and clutch cables are refitted correctly. Check clearance, both sides with full steering lock.
- Always disconnect the battery when working on the electrics!
- We recommend cutting protective film to size and applying it to impact areas that are likely to be chipped by stones.
- Work on the brake system and suspension should always be carried out by a specialist workshop.
- The maximum load on luggage racks is 5 kg! Luggage racks ZegaPro TC is 10 kg!
