WARNING

The automatic-on headlamp feature provides increased visibility of the rider to other motorists. Be sure headlamp is on at all times. Poor visibility of rider to other motorists can result in death or serious injury. (00030b)

See the CUSTOMER SERVICE ASSISTANCE section at the very front of this owner's manual before the TABLE OF CONTENTS. Be sure to record all your key numbers in the space provided.

See Figure 1. The ignition switch (1) controls electrical functions of the motorcycle. The key lock (2) locks the switch in the FORK LOCK or the ACCESS position.

NOTE

Harley-Davidson recommends removing key from ignition switch/fork lock before operating motorcycle. If you do not remove key, it can fall out during operation.
ACCESS - Accessories and hazard warning flasher can be turned on. Instrument lamps are on. Brake lamp and horn can be activated. Key may be removed.

NOTICE

Protect your vehicle against theft. Failure to lock the motorcycle after parking could result in theft and/or equipment damage. (00151b)

NOTICE
