Bajaj Pulsar 135 LS User Manual

How to Ride your Bike
Shifting Gears :
• Close throttle & depress the clutch.
• Shift into next higher or lower gear.
• Open the throttle and release the clutch lever slowly
and simultaneously.
Gear Shifting Lever & Gear Shifting Sequence
WARNING : When shifting down to lower gear, do
not shift at such a high speed that the engine rpm
rises excessively and which may cause the rear
wheel to skid.
Braking :
• Close the throttle completely, leaving the clutch
engaged (except where shifting gears) so that the
engine braking will help slow down the motorcycle.
• Shift down one gear at a time so that you are in
Neutral when you come to a complete stop.
• When stopping, always apply both brakes at the
same time. De-clutch as necessary to keep the
engine from stalling.
• Never lock the brakes, or it will cause the tyres to
skid. When cornering, use brakes judiciously and do
not de-clutch. Reduce your speed before you get
into the corner. For emergency braking, disregard
downshifting, and concentrate on applying the
brakes as hard as possible without skidding.
Stopping the Vehicle :
• Close the throttle completely.
• Shift the transmission into neutral.
• Bring the vehicle to complete stop.
• Turn the ignition switch off.
Parking :
• Shift the transmission into neutral and turn the
ignition switch OFF.
• Support the motorcycle on a firm level surface with
the center or side stand.
CAUTION : Do not park on a soft or steeply
inclined surface or the motorcycle may fall over.
