Anti-theft Tips

1. Always lock the steering and never leave the key
in the ignition switch. This sounds simple but
people do forget.
2. Be sure the registration information for your
motorcycle is accurate and current.
3. Park your motorcycle in a locked garage whenever
possible.
4. Use an additional anti-theft device of good
quality.
5. Put your name, address, and phone number
in this Owner's Manual and keep it on your
motorcycle at all times. Many times stolen
motorcycles are identified by information in the
Owner's Manuals that are still with them.
