the safe riding� Safe riding gear such as gloves and suitable footwear should also be used for protection�
Wear protective apparel when riding in case of any collision with other vehicles� Without protective
apparel, no safety can be ensured� Before changing lanes, look over your shoulder to make sure the way
is safe� Do not rely solely on the rear-view mirrors� You must judge distance and speed of other cycles, or
accidents may occur�
When climbing up steep slopes, shift to a lower gear to increase the motor's torque output, thus avoiding
overloading�
When applying the brakes, apply both the front and rear brakes at the same time� Applying only one brake
for sudden braking may cause the motorcycle to skid and lose control�
When going down long downhill slopes, control vehicle speed by releasing the throttle� Use the front and
rear brakes for auxiliary braking�
In wet conditions, rely more on the throttle to control vehicle speed and less on the front and rear brakes�
The throttle should also be used judiciously to avoid skidding the rear wheel during rapid acceleration or
deceleration�
Riding at the proper speed and avoiding unnecessary acceleration are important not only for safety and
low fuel consumption, but also for longer vehicle life and quieter operation�
When riding in wet conditions or on loose roadway surfaces, vehicle performance will be reduced� All
turning may cause loss of control�
