Taking Care of the Unexpected

Taking Care of the Unexpected

The drive chain, brake lever or pedal, control

cables, and other components can be damaged

as you ride in dense brush or over rocky terrain.

Making a trailside repair depends on how

serious the damage is and what tools and

supplies you have with you.

• If the chain breaks or does other damage

when it comes off, you may not be able to

make a trailside repair.

• If any component of the front brake system is

damaged, you may be able to ride carefully

back to your base using the rear brake for

slowing or stopping.

• If the clutch lever breaks, you may be able to

temporarily switch the front brake lever to

the clutch side, then ride carefully back to

base using the rear brake for slowing or

stopping.

• If you damage a throttle cable or other

critical component, your motorcycle may be

unsafe to ride. Carefully assess the damage

and make any repairs that you can. But if

there is any doubt, it’s best to be conservative

and safe.
