HOME 2.42 JIFFY STAND CLEANING sm02022 The jiffy stand locks when placed in the full forward (down) position with vehicle weight on it. If the jiffy stand is not in the full forward (down) position with vehicle weight on it, the vehicle can fall over which could result in death or serious injury. (00006a) Always park motorcycle on a level, firm surface. An unbalanced motorcycle can fall over, which could result in death or serious injury. (00039a) Figure 2-173. Jiffy Stand Catch and Lock Slot Be sure jiffy stand is fully retracted before riding.
If jiffy stand is not fully retracted, it can contact the road surface causing a loss of vehicle control, which could result in death or serious injury. (00007a) JIFFY STAND INTERLOCK: INTERNATIONAL MODELS Some international models are equipped with a jiffy stand interlock feature. 1. Block motorcycle underneath frame so both wheels are raised off ground. 2. See Figure 2-173 . Inspect leg stop and lock slot in jiffy stand weldment. If covered or plugged with dirt, wipe dirt off with a shop towel and spray catch and mating surface with LOCTITE® AEROSOL ANTI-SEIZE.
If the rider attempts to start the engine or pushes the starter button while the transmission is in gear and the jiffy stand is down, then the jiffy stand interlock system will not permit the engine to run. The message "SidE StAnd" will scroll across the odometer to indicate this to the rider. Raising the jiffy stand (or putting the transmission in neutral) will permit the engine to run and clear the message. 3. Move jiffy stand leg forward and back while spraying anti- seize to infuse LOCTITE® AEROSOL ANTI-SEIZE into mating parts.
If the jiffy stand falls out of the fully retracted position while riding at speeds greater than 15 km/h (10 mph), then the jiffy stand interlock system will maintain engine operation and alert the rider about this by illuminating the indicators (flash twice) and scroll the message "SidE StAnd" across the odometer. 4. Lubricate jiffy stand with LOCTITE® LUBRIPLATE. 5. Check condition of rubber bumper. The message will remain until the system detects the jiffy stand sm02021 in the fully retracted position again. The rider may continue to operate the vehicle while in this mode.
The rider may clear the text messages at any time by pressing the function switch once while the vehicle is powered up. NOTE If the operation of raising the jiffy stand and putting the trans- mission in gear is rapidly executed, the jiffy stand bouncing off the frame could cause the jiffy stand interlock system to activate and stop the engine.
