When approaching a turn, slow down orbrake and take the turn at a moderate,constant speed or accelerate slightly;braking in a turn will greatly increaseyour chances of skidding.

Continued application of the brakes onlong downhill grades may cause thebrakes to overheat, thereby reducingbraking efficiency. Shift down to useengine braking and apply both brakesintermittently.

Never ride downhill with the engine off!

If the road surface is wet or slippery(snow, ice, mud, etc.), ride slowly, donot brake or swerve suddenly, or youmay lose grip and fall.


To shift down, proceed as follows:u Release the throttle grip (2) (Pos.A).u If necessary, apply the brakes moderately

and slow down.u Pull the clutch lever (3) and push down

the gear shift lever (4) to shift down.u If you have pulled the brakes, release

them.u Release the clutch lever and accelerate

moderately.

CAUTIONIf the alarm LED “ ” and the “SERVICE” diagnosis icon come onduring engine normal operation, itmeans that the contro l un i t hasdetected a failure. In most cases, theengine will keep running, althoughgiving less performance. Immediatelycontact a Moto Guzzi AuthorisedDealer.

When the vehicle is at standstill with theengine running, avoid keeping theclutch pulled with a gear engaged for along time or the clutch will overheat.

WARNINGAvoid opening and closing the throttlerepeatedly and continuously, or youmay lose control of the vehicle. Whenyou need to brake, close the throttleand use both brakes for smoothbraking; take care to apply the rightamount of pressure to both brakes.

Using one brake only gives less brakingpower and you could lock a wheel andlose grip.

To stop uphill, decelerate completelyand use the brakes to keep the vehicleat standstill.

Do not use engine braking or the clutchmay overheat.

WARNINGter the first 1000 km (625 mi), have aoto Guzzi Authorised dealer carry out "Post running-in" checks specified in periodic maintenance chart, see page

(SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE CHART).ilure to perform these checks may leadinjury to yourself or other people and/orhicle damage.

After the first 1000 km (625 mi) and until2000 km (1250 mi), ride more briskly,varying speed and using maximumacceleration for just a few seconds, this is toensure better coupling of the components;never exceed 6000 rpm (see table).After the first 2000 km (1250 mi) you mayrun the engine harder, however, withoutexceeding the maximum rpm allowed(7600 rpm).

WARNINGWatch out for obstacles or suddenchanges in the road surface.

Rough roads, rails, manhole covers,road markings, large steel plates nearroadwork become slippery in the wetand should be avoided or negotiatedwith the greatest care, riding carefullyand keeping the vehicle upright.

Signal your intention to change lane orturn in good t ime using the turnindicators and avoid sudden swervingor movements.

Switch off the turn indicators as soonas you have finished turning.

Be extremely careful when overtakingor being overtaken.

When riding in the rain, the spraythrown up by the tyres of large vehicleswill reduce your vision; the air wavecreated by a large vehicle may makeyou lose control of the vehicle.

RUNNING-INCorrect engine running-is essential toensuring proper performance and durability.

Twisty, hilly roads are ideal for an effectiverunning-in of engine, suspension and brakes.

Vary speed frequently during the running-inperiod.This will allow engine parts to be alternatelyloaded and unloaded, allowing them to cooldown when unloaded.

NOTE It is possible that during the firstperiod of use the clutch slightly smells as ifsomething was burnt inside. This condition isnormal and will stop as soon as clutch platesrun in.

While it is important to put some stress onengine components during running-in, it isequally important to avoid extreme loadconditions.

NOTE From 2000 km (1250 mi) onward,the engine is ready to provide topperformance.

Follow these recommendations:u Do not flip the throttle open abruptly with the

engine running at low rpm - either during orafter the running-in period.

u Until you have covered the first 100 km (62mi), use the brakes gently and avoid harsh,prolonged braking. This will help the brakepads bed in properly against the brakediscs.

u During the first 1000 km (625 mi) neverexceed 5000 rpm.
