WARNING
As the speed is high, the braking distance will be longer accordingly.
Correctly judge the distance from the vehicles ahead. The distance should
be at least enough for you to brake the motorcycle.
Less-experienced rider tends to use the rear brake only. It will speed
up the wearing of the rear brake and make the braking distance longer.
To use the front or rear brake only may cause loss of control and
slippery, and therefore is dangerous. Care should be taken when riding
on a wet or slippery road and at a curving road. In such cases, use the
brakes gently. Hurried braking on a slippery or uneven road is especially
dangerous.
If the motorcycle must be supported with the side stand on a gentle
slope, the bottom gear should be engaged in order to prevent unexpected
sliding from the stand. Return to the neutral gear prior to starting the engine.
Turn the ignition switch to OFF to stop the engine.
Remove the key from the switch.
Lock the steering lock for safety.
