Compartment
WARNING
Improper loading of cargo or installation of accessories can affect motorcycle stability and handling, which could result in death or serious injury.
  • Keep cargo weight concentrated close to the motorcycle and as low as possible to minimize the change in the motorcycle's center of gravity.
  • Distribute weight evenly on both sides of the vehicle.
  • Do not load bulky items too far behind the rider or add weight to the handlebars or front forks.
  • Do not exceed maximum load capacity stated on the label for bags, luggage, and racks, if equipped. Combined load of luggage rack and Tour-Pak must not exceed load capacity on the label within the Tour-Pak.
  • Do not exceed the maximum load capacity stated within the media compartment, when indicated and if equipped.
  • Check that cargo is secure. The cargo cannot shift while riding. Periodically recheck load.
  • Close and lock luggage before riding or leaving the vehicle unattended.
  • Accessories that change the operator's riding position may increase reaction time and affect handling of the motorcycle.
  • Items with large surface areas, such as fairings, windshields, backrests and luggage racks (if equipped) can adversely affect stability and handling.
