BRAKE SYSTEM
The front brake lever is on the right handlebar, in front of the throttle grip. To activate the front brake, pull the front
brake lever toward the throttle grip with the fingers of your right hand.
The rear brake foot pedal on the right hand side operates the rear wheel brake. Using your foot to press down on the
rear brake foot pedal activates the rear brakes. Brakes should be applied uniformly and gradually without locking
wheels.
BRAKE LIGHT
The motorcycle's brake light is not usually as noticeable as the brake lights on a car, particularly if the taillight is also
on (it goes on with the headlight). You can help others notice you by tapping the brake pedal to flash the brake light
before slowing down. It is important to do this when you are:
•
Being closely followed. The tailgater may be watching you and not see something ahead that will make you
slow down.
•
Making a tight turn off a high-speed highway.
•
Slowing or turning in the middle of a block, at an alley, or at some place where others do not expect
it.
CLUTCH HAND LEVER
The clutch hand lever is located on the left handlebar where it may be easily operated with the fingers of the left hand.
Pull the lever in against handlebar grip to disengage the clutch; release the lever slowly to its outward position to
engage the clutch.
WARNING
DO NOT APPLY EITHER BRAKE STRONGLY ENOUGH TO LOCK THE WHEEL BECAUSE THIS MAY
CAUSE THE WHEEL TO SKID WITH POSSIBLE LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE MOTORCYCLE. FOR THIS
REASON, EXERCISE CAUTION, ESPECIALLY WHEN APPLYING THE FRONT DISC BRAKES.
