Safety

Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)

WARNING! Exceeding the gross vehicle weight rating of your motorcycle can reduce stability and

handling and could cause loss of control. NEVER exceed the GVWR of your motorcycle.

The maximum load capacity of your motorcycle is the maximum weight you may add to

your motorcycle without exceeding the GVWR. This capacity is determined by calculating

the difference between your motorcycle’s GVWR and wet weight.

Refer to the specification section of this manual or the Manufacturing Information/VIN label

on the motorcycle frame for model-specific information. Refer to the “Safety and Informa-

tion Labels” section in this manual for location on the motorcycle.

When determining the weight you will be adding to your motorcycle, and to ensure you do

not exceed the maximum load capacity, include the following:

• operator body weight

• passenger body weight

• weight of all riders’ apparel and items in or on apparel

• weight of any accessories and their contents

• weight of any additional cargo on the motorcycle

Carrying Cargo

Use the following guidelines when attaching cargo or accessories to the motorcycle.

To prevent instability and loss of control:

• Keep cargo and accessory weight to a minimum. Keep items as close to the motorcycle as

possible to minimize a change in the motorcycle's center of gravity.

• Distribute weight evenly on both sides of the motorcycle and secure cargo to prevent

unexpected shifting. Check all accessories and cargo for security and even distribution

before riding and at each riding break.

• Do not attach large or heavy cargo such as sleeping bags, duffel bags or tents to the han-

dlebars, front fork area or front fender. These areas are not designed to carry cargo. Cargo

in these areas can also block air flow to the engine and cause overheating.

• Do not exceed the maximum cargo weight limit of any accessory. Refer to the accessory

instructions and labels. Do not attach cargo to an accessory not designed for that purpose.

• Do not attach anything to the highway bar except highway footrests.
