BRAKING
î For normal braking, close the throttle and
gradually apply both front and rear brake
together while shifting down gears to suit
your road speed.
î For sudden deceleration/quick stopping,
close the throttle and apply the front and
rear brakes simultaneously.
WARNING
!!
î Independent use of only the front or rear
brake increases stopping distance.
î Extreme braking may cause wheel locking
and reduce control over the motorcycle.
î Wherever possible, reduce speed or apply
brake before entering a turn, closing the
throttle or braking in mid turn may cause
wheel slip. Wheel slip will reduce control
over the motorcycle.
î When riding in wet or rainy conditions, or on
loose surfaces the ability to stop the
motorcycle reduces.
î All your actions should be smooth under these
conditions. Sudden acceleration, braking or
turning may cause loss of control. For your
safety, exercise extreme caution when
braking, accelerating or turning.
î When descending a long steep slope use
engine braking (power) by changing to lower
gears, with intermittent use of both brakes.
Continuous brake application can overheat
the brakes and reduce their effectiveness.

transmission into neutral, turn the fuel valve
“OFFand turn the ignition switch “OFF”. Park
