2.1. Safety
2.1.1. HOW TO REPORT A SAFETY-RELATED
DEFECT
If you believe that your vehicle has a defect
which could cause a crash or could cause injury
or death, you should immediately inform the
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
(NHTSA) in addition to notifying MV Agusta
S.p.A. If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it
may open an investigation, and if it finds that a
safety defect exists in a group of vehicles, it may
order a recall and remedy campaign. However,
NHTSA cannot become involved in individual
problems between you, your dealer, or MV
Agusta S.p.A. To contact NHTSA, you may either
call the Auto Safety Hotline toll-free at 1-800-4249393 (or 366-0123 in Washington, D.C. area) or
write to: NHTSA, U.S. Department of
Transportation, Washington, D.C. 20590. You
can also obtain other information about motor
vehicle safety from the Hotline.
2.1.2. NOISE EMISSION WARRANTY
MV Agusta S.p.A. warrants that, at the time of
sale, the exhaust system conformed to all applicable U.S. EPA(Environmental Protection Agency)
noise control regulations. The warranty applies to
the first retail purchaser of the exhaust system
and to all subsequent buyers. Any warranty
claims must be addressed to:
Cagiva U.S.A. Incorporated, 2300 Maryland
Road, Willow Grove, PA19090-4139.
2.1.3. NOTE ON TAMPERING
Tampering with the noise control system is prohibited. In particular, the law prohibits the following acts:
1. The removal or rendering inoperative, other
than for purposes of maintenance, repair, or
replacement, of any device or element of
design incorporated into any new vehicle for the
purpose of noise control prior to its sale or delivery to the ultimate purchaser or while it is in use.
- 23 -
SAFETY INFORMATION 2
2
2. The use of the vehicle after such device or ele-
ment of design has been removed or rendered
inoperative.
Acts presumed to constitute tampering include:
1. The removal or piercing of the exhaust
silencer, the diaphragm, the manifolds, or any
other components involved in the transmission
of exhaust gases.
2. The removal or piercing of any part of the
intake system.
3. Poor maintenance.
4. The replacement of any movable parts of the
vehicle or of any intake or exhaust components with parts or components other than
those prescribed by the manufacturer.
NOTE
Never ride your motorcycle with a defective muffler. This will effect not only the motorcycle’s
sound level, but its performance as well. Riding
with a defective muffler can also subject you to
arrest and imposition of fines.
The rules of the road vary from country to country.
Be sure that you understand local regulations
before riding your motorcycle.

2.1.4. INFORMATION ON THE EMISSION CON-
TROL SYSTEM
The combustion process produces carbon
monoxide and hydrocarbons. Hydrocarbon control is particularly important in that, under certain
conditions and when exposed to direct sunlight,
hydrocarbons undergo reactions which lead to the
formation of photochemical smog. Carbon
monoxide does not react in the same way, but it is
highly toxic. MV Agusta uses a sequential multipoint electronic injection system and other methods designed to cut carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon emissions.
Exhaust emission control system
The exhaust emission control system is made up
of the sequential multipoint injection (SMPI) system, which requires no adjustment. The exhaust
emission control system is distinct from the
crankcase emission control system.
Crankcase emission control system
The engine is equipped with a closed-crankcase
system designed to prevent the release of
crankcase emissions into the atmosphere. Blowby gases return to the combustion chamber via
the air filter and the injection system.
Evaporative emission control system
California motorcycles are equipped with an
evaporative emission control system, which consists of a charcoal canister and associated plumbing. This system prevents the escape of fuel
vapors from the fuel tank.
Problems relating to the vehicle’s emissions
Should the vehicle show any of the following
symptoms, contact your MV Agusta dealer to
have it checked and if necessary repaired:
1) Engine is dif ficult to start or stalls after starting.
2) Idle speed is erratic.
3) Misfiring or backfiring during acceleration.
4) Afterburning.
5) Poor performance (driveability) and excessive
consumption.

2.1.5. SAFETY RULES
IMPORTANT: READ BEFORE USE
Before riding, carefully read this manual so as
to familiarize yourself with the controls, characteristics, working and limits of the motorcycle. The
manual is aimed at providing information on some
of all the possible techniques and methods required for safe riding.
Do not attach a sidecar, a trailer or any other
accessory to the motorcycle. Failure to observe
this warning may make the vehicle unstable and
cause serious accidents.
To ensure maximum reliability and maintain
the vehicle in perfect working order, it is essential
to perform the servicing detailed in the Scheduled
Maintenance Table and to follow all the instructions provided in this manual. For further information, speak with your dealer, who will have the
necessary technical skills and information to assist you.
MV Agusta continually strives to improve the
quality of all of its motorcycles. Therefore, modifications that improve the performance of the bike
are made as soon as they are developed.
Therefore, your motorcycle may not be described
exactly by the illustrations and text contained in
this manual.
If you find difficulties in understanding any picture or information contained in this manual, contact your MV Agusta dealer to obtain the necessary explanations.
If you find difficulties in reading any information
contained in this manual, contact your MV Agusta
dealer.
In order to avoid compromising handling and
stability of your motorcycle, you should obey the
following warnings:
• do not attach any object to the vehicle;
• do not remove any part and/or component;
• do not modify the vehicle in any way;
• do not wear garments that could adversely
affect control and handling of the motorcycle.
- 26 -
SAFETY INFORMATION 2
2
Do not ride this motorcycle if you do not pos-
sess a regular driving licence. Failure to heed this
warning violates the law and increases the risk of
accidents, which may lead to personal serious
injury or even death.
Do not try to service or repair this motorcycle if
you do not possess the necessary skills.
Motorcycle riding demands your complete
attention. Do not ride if you are ill, in poor physical condition, or because of worry, etc., unable to
concentrate on the task at hand.
Always wear a helmet, even on short rides.
Always wear suitable clothes, especially when
travelling by night (e.g. garments with fluorescent
bands).
When refuelling, switch off the engine and
refrain from smoking.
When refuelling, avoid spilling the fuel onto the
tank and the exhaust pipes. Petrol is highly flammable and it may light if it comes in touch with any
hot part of your motorcycle, with subsequent
serious burns or even death.
When refuelling, stay away from the vehicle to
avoid inhaling harmful fumes. Should the fuel
come into contact with the skin or clothes, immediately wash with water and change the contaminated garments.
Do not start the engine in closed places.
Exhaust gases are toxic and can quickly saturate
the air and cause fainting or even death.
Before starting the engine in a closed place,
ensure that the area is well ventilated.
When travelling during the day , use the low beam.
While the vehicle is in motion, always rest the
feet on the specially designed supports.
While riding, always keep both hands on the
handlebars.
WARNING
Driving with your hands and/or feet
away from their designed supports can
cause loss of control, upset, and subsequent serious injury or even death.
- 27 -
SAFETY INFORMATION 2
2
If your motorcycle has been involved in an
accident, check all levers, wires, hoses, brake
calipers and other main parts for damage. Do not
use the vehicle if you detect a damage that could
adversely affect safety. Have all the main parts
checked by an authorized MV Agusta dealer, in
order to verify the absence of defects and/or
damages that the owner could not be able to
detect.

2.1.6. PRECAUTIONS FOR CHILDREN
WARNING
• Park the vehicle where it is unlikely to
be bumped into or damaged. Even slight
or involuntary bumps can cause the vehicle to topple over, with subsequent risk
of serious harm to people or children.
• To prevent the vehicle from tipping
over, never park it on soft or uneven
ground, nor on asphalt strongly heated
by the sun.
• Engine and exhaust pipes become
very hot during riding. Always park
your motorcycle where people or children can not easily reach these parts,
in order to avoid serious burns.
• Do not cover your motorcycle with a
canvas soon afterwards riding. Before
covering your motorcycle, wait until the
engine and the exhaust pipes have thoroughly cooled, in order to avoid the
risk of a fire with subsequent danger
for people and children, as well as
damage to the motorcycle.
