Danger of accidents Longer stopping distance due to higher overall weight.
–
Take the longer stopping distance into account when carrying a passenger and baggage.
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 If you brake too hard, the wheels can lock.
–
Adapt your braking to the traffic situation and the road conditions.
–
When braking, first throttle back and then apply the front and rear brakes at the same time.
–
On sandy, wet or slippery surfaces, use the rear brake.
–
Braking should always be completed before you enter a bend. Change down to a lower gear that is appropriate for your speed.
–
On long downhill stretches, use the braking effect of the engine. Do this by changing down two gears, but do not race the engine. You
will require less braking force and the brakes will not overheat.
