Do not downshift the gears in the midst of cornering.
Slow down to a safe speed before negotiating a
corner. If this is the first time that you are riding a
vehicle of this type, we suggest that you practice on a
safe, open area to thoroughly familiarise with the
operation of the vehicle.
One-hand riding is dangerous.
Keep both hands
firmly on the handle bar and both feet securely on the
foot rest. Under no circumstances should both the
hands be removed from the handle bar, as it is very
dangerous.
Avoid use of mobile phones while
riding as it could lead to fatal accident.
2. Sit and adjust yourself on seat so that arms and
shoulders are relaxed.
Proper vehicle riding starts with proper posture.
During cornering, reduce speed so as to reduce the
effects of centrifugal force. Avoid abrupt application
of brake or sudden steering by all means.
Posture
1. Keep your elbows relaxed and flexible.
4. Keep the knees close to the fuel tank.
When cornering, centrifugal force works in a direction
perpendicular to the direction in which the vehicle is
moving. Centrifugal force increases in proportion with
speed and the radius of the corner.
3. Look widely instead of gazing at one point.

SAFE RIDING TIPS
4. Never depress the clutch lever while braking at
higher speeds.
6. Riding down hills, while cornering and wet roads
close throttle and down shift the gear to take
advantage of gearbox and engine which acts as an
additional brake. This will avoid the loss of control
over the vehicle due to over speed.
Braking
For safe riding, it is very important to master the
braking techniques.
1. Close / release the throttle.
2. Hold the vehicle upright as you apply the brake.
3. Progressive application of brakes is safer.
5.
Apply both the brakes.
