Riding
● Place your feet on your preferred foot pegs (front or rear)
● Slowly and smoothly open the throttle to accelerate
● Close throttle to coast; momentum will continue to carry you forward
Braking
1. For slow (optimal
regenerative) braking under
normal conditions, close
throttle and smoothly apply
pressure to both front and
rear brake control levers
2. For maximum braking, close
throttle and apply firm
pressure to both front and
rear brake control levers
3. Ensure that you shift your
body weight to a stable
position and brace against the
force of deceleration to
maintain control of the NKD
TIP
Independent use of the front or rear brake
reduces performance and control when
stopping. Always use both front and rear brakes
together. If one wheel begins to lock or slip,
reducing pressure to the corresponding brake
control lever will correct the action, and
maximise control when stopping. This will
become more intuitive with experience. Brake
before entering a turn, as firm application of
brakes mid-turn may result in loss of control.
When braking in wet conditions or on loose
surfaces, all braking manoeuvres must be
smooth, as sudden application of brakes may
result in loss of control.
TIP Hill Start
When applying either brakes the vehicle won’t
accelerate. From a hill start engage throttle
lightly and then release brake to take off
Adjusting Brake Levers
Use the lever adjuster to
set up comfortable brake
lever position by adjusting
and selecting from the 6
positions
