Blind Spot Warning

The Blind Spot Warning is an aid. It does not replace the need for the rider to be aware of all situations when riding.

The rider must always maintain a high level of awareness and concentration while riding, always use the mirrors and check the blind spots. The rider must not solely rely on the Blind Spot Warnings. The rider must also look over their shoulder (head check) prior to overtaking or changing lanes.

The rider is responsible for detecting all other vehicles, estimating the distance between them and the motorcycle, and then maneuvering the motorcycle in a safe and responsible way to avoid any collision.

The rider must also obey all speed limits, observe all road signs and road markings, and react accordingly to any environmental influences such as thick fog, heavy rain, etc.

Operating and riding the motorcycle safely and correctly is always the rider’s sole responsibility.

The performance of the rear radar sensor may be affected by smaller vehicles such as bicycles or motorcycles, or vehicles with large flat surfaces such as trailers.

Riders may be warned with a delay, or not at all, due to the time required for the system to calculate and inform the rider of vehicles approaching and entering the blind spot zones at higher speeds.

The rear radar sensor cover may become covered by road dirt, mud, rain, ice, snow, etc.

Always make sure to check and carefully clean the rear radar sensor cover before riding the motorcycle. Ensure only soapy water and a soft sponge are used to clean the rear radar sensor cover and avoid using any abrasive material or chemicals that could damage the cover.

Do not paint over, attach stickers to, or attach other objects to the rear radar sensor.

The rear radar sensor’s ability to detect a vehicle in the rider’s blind spot may be effected and give incorrect indications. This may lead to a motorcycle accident.

Always make sure that no accessories, luggage, or passenger’s items cover or obscure the rear radar sensor cover or sensor range.

When riding with a passenger make sure that their clothing does not overhang the seat and cover the rear radar sensor cover.

The rear radar sensor’s ability to detect a vehicle in the rider’s blind spot zone will be affected if foreign objects enter or cover the rear radar’s field of view and could send incorrect or missing warnings. This may lead to a motorcycle accident.
