Riding in Wet Weather Conditions
In wet or foggy weather, there will be low visibility and poor adhesion between the tyres and the road. Check tires
for wear and check there is sufficient tread for optimum grip. When riding into low visibility or on slippery roads,
keep to a safe speed and do not accelerate, brake or turn suddenly.
Riding in Snow/Icy Conditions
It is generally not recommended to ride in icy or snowy weather conditions. Should you be in a position where it is
necessary to ride in such conditions, do not accelerate, brake or turn suddenly. Try to use the available gears to
slow down (often referred to as ‘engine braking’) where possible, with no sudden braking. Steer slowly and plan
-
ahead by slowing down in advance of approaching bends, junctions or hazards.
Braking Distances
The faster the speed of travel, the longer the braking distance required to stop the motorcycle.
This is doubled on wet roads. It is advisable to reduce your speed on wet roads or in poor visibility because of
this. When braking, use the rear brake followed by the front brake to control your speed.
