Riding Precautions
During the first 500 km (300 miles) of
running, follow these guidelines to ensure
your vehicle’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:
●
Avoid excessively hard braking and
downshifting.
u
Sudden braking can reduce the
vehicle’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.
●
For full braking effectiveness, operate
both the front and rear brakes together.
❙
Combined ABS
Your vehicle is equipped with a brake
system that distributes the braking force
between the front and rear brakes.
The distribution of the braking force is
applied to both front and rear brakes when
operating the lever and/or pedal.
For full braking effectiveness, operate both
the front and rear brakes together.
The brake feel changes according to the
selected riding mode.
2
This model is also equipped with an Anti-
lock Brake System (ABS) designed to help
prevent the brakes from locking up during
hard braking.
●
ABS does not reduce braking distance. In
certain circumstances, ABS may result in
a longer stopping distance.
●
ABS does not function at speeds below
5 km/h (3 mph).
●
The brake lever and pedal may recoil
slightly when applying the brakes. This is
normal.
●
Always use the recommended tyres to
ensure correct ABS operation.
