How to Ride the Motorcycle
72
Warning
For your safety, always exercise
extreme caution when braking,
(whether or not ABS is installed),
accelerating or turning as any
improper action can cause loss of
control and an accident. Independent
use of the front or rear brakes
reduces overall braking performance.
Extreme braking may cause either
wheel to lock, reducing control of the
motorcycle and causing an accident
(see ABS warning).
When possible, reduce speed or brake
before entering a turn as closing the
throttle or braking in mid-turn may
cause wheel slip leading to loss of
control and an accident.
When riding in wet or rainy conditions,
or on loose surfaces, the ability to
maneuver and stop will be reduced. All
of your actions should be smooth
under these conditions. Sudden
acceleration, braking or turning may
cause loss of control and an accident.
Warning
When descending a long, steep
gradient, use engine braking by down
changing and use the brakes
intermittently. Continuous brake
application can overheat the brakes
and reduce their effectiveness.
Riding with your foot on the brake
pedal or your hands on the brake lever
may actuate the brake light, giving a
false indication to other road users. It
may also overheat the brake, reducing
braking effectiveness.
Do not coast with the engine switched
off, and do not tow the motorcycle.
The transmission is pressure-
lubricated only when the engine is
running. Inadequate lubrication may
cause damage or seizure of the
transmission, which can lead to
sudden loss of motorcycle control and
an accident.
