How to Ride Your Bike
Braking :
• Close the throttle completely, leaving the
clutch engaged (except where shifting gears)
so that the engine braking will help slow
down the motorcycle.
• Shift down one gear at a time so that you
are in Neutral when you come to a complete
stop.
• When stopping, always apply both brakes at
the same time. De-clutch as necessary to
avoid engine stalling.
• Never lock the brakes, or it will cause the
tyres to skid. When cornering, use brakes
judiciously & do not de-clutch. Reduce your
speed before you get into the corner. For
emergency braking, disregard downshifting,
and concentrate on applying brakes as hard
as possible without skidding.
Stopping the Vehicle :
• Close the throttle completely.
• Shift the transmission into neutral.
• Bring the vehicle to complete stop.
• Turn the ignition switch off.
Parking the Vehicle :
• Support the motorcycle on a firm level
surface with the center or side stand.
• Lock the steering.
CAUTION : Do not park on a soft or
steeply inclined surface or the motorcycle
may fall over.

life & trouble free performance of the vehicle.
