ger, accessories and cargo must not exce-
ed the maximum load limit.
Operation of an overloaded vehicle
could cause an accident.
Maximum load:
191 Kg
When loading within this weight limit,
keep the following in mind:
• Cargo and accessory weight should
be kept as low and close to the mo-
torcycle as possible. Securely pack
your heaviest items as close to the
center of the vehicle as possible and
make sure to distribute the weight
as evenly as possible on both sides
of the motorcycle to minimize imba-
lance or instability.
• Shifting weights can create a sudden
imbalance. Make sure that accesso-
ries and cargo are securely attached
to the motorcycle before riding.
Check accessory mounts and cargo
restraints frequently.
• Properly adjust the suspension
for your load (suspension-adju-
stable models only), and check
the condition and pressure of
your tires.
• Never attach any large or he-
avy items to the handlebar,
front fork, or front fender. The-
se items, including such cargo
as sleeping bags, duffel bags,
or tents, can create unstable
handling or a slow steering re-
sponse.
• This vehicle is not designed to pull
a trailer or to be attached to a si-
decar.
Genuine Benelli Accessories
Choosing accessories for your vehicle is an
important decision.
Genuine Benelli accessories, which are
available only from a Benelli dealer, have
been designed, tested, and approved by
Benelli for use on your vehicle.
Many companies with no connection to
Benelli manufacture parts and accesso-
ries or offer other modifications for Benelli
vehicles.
Benelli is not in a position to test the pro-
ducts that these aftermarket companies
produce.
Therefore, Benelli can neither endorse nor
recommend the use of accessories not
sold by Benelli or modifications not spe-
cifically recommended by Benelli, even if
sold and installed by a Benelli dealer.

Safety information
Aftermarket Parts, Accessories, and
Modifications
While you may find aftermarket products
similar in design and quality to genuine
Benelli accessories, recognize that some
aftermarket accessories or modifications
are not suitable because of potential sa-
fety hazards to you or others.
Installing aftermarket products or having
other modifications performed to your
vehicle that change any of the vehicle's
design or operation characteristics can
put you and others at greater risk of se-
rious injury or death.
You are responsible for injuries related to
changes in the vehicle.
Keep the following guidelines in mind, as
well as those provided under "Loading"
when mounting accessories.
• Never install accessories or carry
cargo that would impair the perfor-
mance of your motorcycle. Carefully
inspect the accessory before using it
to make sure that it does not in any
way reduce ground clearance or cor-
nering clearance, limit suspension
travel, steering travel or control ope-
ration, or obscure lights or reflectors.
• Accessories fitted to the han-
dlebar or the front fork area
can create instability due to
improper weight distribution
or aerodynamic changes. If ac-
cessories are added to the han-
dlebar or front fork area, they
