RIDING ON HILLS
• When climbing steep hills, the
motorcycle may begin to slow
down and show lack of power. At
this point you should shift to a
lower gear so that the engine will
again be operating in its normal
power range. Shift rapidly to pre-
vent the motorcycle from losing
momentum.
• When riding down a steep hill, the
engine may be used for braking by
shifting to a lower gear.
• Be careful, however, not to allow
the engine to overrev.
STOPPING AND PARKING
1. Turn the throttle grip away from
you to close the throttle com-
pletely.
2. Apply the front and rear brakes
evenly and at the same time.
3. Downshift through the gears as
road speed decreases.
4. Select neutral with the clutch lever
squeezed towards the grip (disen-
gaged position) just before the
motorcycle stops. The neutral
position can be confirmed by
observing the neutral indicator
light.

WARNING
Inexperienced riders tend to
underutilize the front brake. This
can cause excessive stopping dis-
tance and lead to a collision.
Using only the front or rear brake
can cause skidding and loss of
control.
Apply both brakes evenly and at
the same time.

WARNING
Hard braking while turning may
cause wheel skid and loss of con-
trol.
Brake before you begin to turn.
