Warning

with a high center of gravity, varying road surfaces, steep descents or full braking without disengaging
the gear.
–
Adapt your riding style to the road conditions and your driving ability.

When braking, release the throttle and apply the front and rear brakes at the same time.
Info
When the ABS is enabled, you can achieve maximum braking power even on low grip surfaces such as
sandy, wet, or slippery terrain without locking of the wheels.
