BRAKING
To stop the LT-Z90, first release the
throttle lever. Next, apply the front and
rear brakes evenly and at the same
time.
TURNING
To turn the LT-Z90, the rider must use
the proper technique. Because this
vehicle has a solid rear axle, both rear
wheels always turn at the same
speed. This means that if the rear
wheels are getting equal traction, the
vehicle will tend to move straight
ahead. This is because the rear
wheels will travel the same distance.
For the vehicle to turn, the outside
rear wheel must travel a greater dis-
tance than the inside rear wheel. To
make this happen, the rider must cre-
ate less traction for the inside wheel,
allowing it to slip somewhat. This
allows it to travel a shorter distance
than the outside wheel. This happens
even though both wheels are still turn-
ing at the same speed.
