9 RIDING INSTRUCTIONS 67
Warning
Danger of accidents Delayed brake action on salted roads.
– There may be salt deposits on the brake discs. In order to restore the normal braking efficiency, you will need to remove the
deposits from the discs by carefully applying the brakes.
Warning
Danger of accidents Greater stopping distance due to ABS.
– Braking should be appropriate to the driving situation and the road conditions.
Warning
Danger of accidents Very forceful braking can cause the wheels to block.
– ABS must be switched on to be effective.
– When braking, release the throttle and apply the front and rear brakes at the same time.
Info
When the ABS is enabled, you can achieve maximum braking power even on low grip surfaces such as sandy, wet, or slippery
terrain without locking of the wheels.
Warning
Danger of accidents Locking of the wheels due to braking action of the engine.
– Pull the clutch during emergency braking, full brake application and when braking on a slippery surface.
Warning
Danger of accidents Road grip is reduced when braking with the motorcycle at an angle or on a laterally inclined surface.
– Braking should be completed before you enter into a bend.
– Braking should always be completed before you go into a bend. Change down to a lower gear appropriate to your road speed.
– On long downhill stretches, use the braking effect of the engine. Change down one or two gears, but do not over rev the engine. In this
way, you have to brake far less and the brakes do not overheat.
