Warning
Use both brake lever and pedal for effective
braking. Using only one of the brakes will give you
less braking power. Never use the brake controls
harshly or suddenly as you may lock the wheels and
lose control of the motorcycle. When riding in the rain
or on slippery surfaces, braking will become less
effective. Always use the brakes very gently and
carefully when riding under these conditions. Any
sudden manoeuvres may lead to loss of control.
When tackling long, high-gradient downhill road
tracts, shift down gears to use engine braking. Apply
one brake at a time and use brakes sparingly.
Keeping the brakes applied all the time would cause
the friction material to overheat and reduce braking
power dangerously. Underinflated or overinflated
tyres reduce braking efficiency, handling accuracy
and stability in a bend.
