BRAKING
For normal braking, gradually apply both
the front and rear brakes while
downshifting to suit your road speed.
For maximum deceleration, close the
throttle and apply the front and rear brakes
firmly.
Important Safety Reminders:
• Independent operation of only the brake
lever or brake pedal reduces stopping
performance.
• Extreme application of the brake controls
may cause wheel lock, reducing control of
the motorcycle.
• When possible, reduce speed or brake
before entering a turn; closing the
throttle or braking in mid-turn may cause
wheel slip. Wheel slip will reduce control
of the motorcycle.

• When riding in wet or rainy conditions, or
on loose surfaces, the ability to maneuver
and stop will be reduced. All of your
actions should be smooth under these
conditions. Rapid acceleration, braking or
turning may cause loss of control. For
your safety, exercise extreme caution
when braking, accelerating or turning.
• When descending a long, steep grade,
use engine compression braking by
down-shifting, with intermittent use of
both brakes.
Continuous brake application can
overheat the brakes and reduce their
effectiveness.
