Riding Precautions
Running-in Period
During the first 500 km (300 miles) of running,
follow these guidelines to ensure your vehicle's
future reliability and performance.
●
Avoid full-throttle starts and rapid
acceleration.
●
Avoid hard braking.
●
Ride conservatively.
Brakes
Observe the following guidelines:
●
Avoid excessively hard braking.
u
Sudden braking can reduce the vehicle's
stability.
u
Where possible, reduce speed before
turning; otherwise you risk sliding out.
●
Exercise caution on low traction surfaces.
u
The tyres slip more easily on such
surfaces and braking distances are
longer.
●
Avoid continuous braking.
u
Repeated braking, such as when
descending long, steep slopes can
seriously overheat the brakes, reducing
their effectiveness.
●
For full braking effectiveness, operate both
the front and rear brakes together.
#
Combi Brake
Your vehicle is equipped with a brake system
that distributes the braking force between the
front and rear brakes.
The distribution of the braking force applied to
the front and rear brakes when operating the
front brake lever only and when operating the
rear brake lever only is different.
For full braking effectiveness, operate both the
front and rear brakes together.
