ACCESSORY INSTALLATION AND SAFETY
TIPS
Use extreme caution while selecting and installing the
accessories for your motorcycle.
The addition of unsuitable accessories can lead to
unsafe operating conditions. Your friendly
Distributor / Dealer will assist you in selecting quality
accessories and installing them correctly.
While selecting the accessories, make sure the
accessories should not obstruct lighting, steering,
suspension level and ground clearance. Please
ensure that if the tank cover is used, it is not getting
en-trapped between fuel tank and fuel tank cap.
Additional electrical equipments and controls
should not exceed the specified electrical system
load of the vehicle (capacity of battery and
magneto).
As the vehicle speed increases, the stopping distance
also increases progressively. Be sure that, you have
sufficient distance between you and the vehicle or
obstruction ahead of you.
Using only the front or rear brake is dangerous and can
cause skidding and loss of control. Apply both
the brakes together and with great care on a wet
road or other slippery surfaces. Any abrupt braking
on slippery or irregular roads can cause loss of rider
control.
1. If the brake shoes / pads or drum / disc are worn
out or if there is water or oil on them, sufficient
friction does not develop and brakes do not work
well.
Causes for poor braking
2. Even when the brake works normally, if the road
surface is wet or the tyre surface is worn-out,
tyres do not take a firm hold on the surface,
increasing the stopping distance.
3. Approximately 60% braking effect is from front
brake. Non-usage of front brake causes poor
braking.
