Parking on a Slope

If parking on a slope is unavoidable, park with the front wheel uphill from the rear wheel. Place the transmission in first gear and position the motorcycle so that it is stable when it rests on the sidestand.
NOTICE
Always park with the front wheel uphill from the rear wheel when parking on a slope. If the front wheel is downhill from the rear wheel, the sidestand could retract and cause a tipover.
