Engine Braking
Engine braking helps slow your vehicle down
when you release the throttle. For further
slowing action, downshift to a lower gear. Use
engine braking with intermittent use of the
brakes to reduce speed when descending long,
steep slopes.
#
Wet or Rainy Conditions
Road surfaces are slippery when wet, and wet
brakes further reduce braking efficiency.
Exercise extra caution when braking in wet
conditions.
If the brakes get wet, apply the brakes while
riding at low speed to help them dry.
Parking
●
Park on a firm, level surface.
●
If you must park on a slight incline or loose
surface, park so that the vehicle cannot
move or fall over.
●
Make sure that high-temperature parts
cannot come into contact with flammable
materials.
●
Do not touch the engine, muffler, brakes
and other high-temperature parts until they
cool down.
●
To reduce the likelihood of theft, always lock
the handlebar and remove the key when
leaving the vehicle unattended.
Use of an anti-theft device is also
recommended.
