BRAKING
Your vehicle is equipped with mechanically-
activated drum brakes. Operating the brake
lever applies the front drum brake. Depressing
the brake pedal applies the rear drum brake.
Important Safety Reminders:
• Independent operation of only the brake
lever or brake pedal reduces stopping
performance.
• Extreme application of the brake
controls may cause wheel lock, reducing
control of the vehicle.
• When possible, reduce speed or brake
before entering a turn, closing the
throttle or braking in mid-turn may
cause wheel slip. Wheel slip will reduce
control of the vehicle.
• When riding in wet or rainy condition, on
loose surfaces, the ability to maneuver
and stop will be reduced. All of your
conditions, Rapid acceleration, braking
or turning may cause loss of control. For
your safety, exercise extreme caution
when braking, accelerating or turning.
• When descending a long, steep grade,
use engine compression braking by
down-shifting with intermittent use
of both brakes. Continuous brake
application can overheat the brakes and
reduce their effectiveness.
• Riding with your foot resting on the
brake pedal or your hand on the brake
lever may actuate the brake light, giving
a false indication to other drivers; It
may also overheat the brakes, reducing
effectiveness.
PARKING
1. After stopping the vehicle, shift the
transmission into neutral, turn the fuel
knob OFF, turn the handle bar fully to
the left or right, turn the ignition switch
OFF and remove the key.
2. Use the centre stand to support the
motorcycle while parked.
Park the vehicle on firm, level ground to
prevent it from falling over.
If the vehicle is parked on a slight incline,
aim the front of the vehicle uphill to reduce
the possibility of rolling off the centre stand
or overturning.
3. Lock the steering (page 25) to help
prevent theft .
