Riding Precautions
During the first 500 km (300 miles) of running,
follow these guidelines to ensure your
motorcycle’s future reliability and performance.
●
Avoid full-throttle starts and rapid
acceleration.
●
Avoid hard braking and rapid down-shifts.
●
Ride conservatively.
Observe the following guidelines:
●
For full braking effectiveness, operate both
the front and rear brakes together.
●
Avoid excessively hard braking and down-
shifts.
u
Sudden braking can reduce the
motorcycle’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. Use engine braking
with intermittent use of the brakes to
reduce speed.
❙
Combined ABS
Your motorcycle 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 is different when
operating the lever only and when operating
the pedal only.
For full braking effectiveness, operate both the
lever and pedal together.
