Stopping The Motorcycle - GAS GAS EC - 2004 Service Manual

STOPPING THE MOTORCYCLE

For maximum deceleration, close the throttle (A) and apply both
front and rear brakes. Disengage the clutch as the motorcycle comes
to a stop. Independent use of the front or rear brake may be
advantageous under certain conditions.
Downshift progressively as speed is reduced to ensure good engine
response when you want to accelerate.

BREAK-IN
Para obtener un óptimo funcionamiento del motor y la transmisión,
es necesario una suave ejecución, teniendo que llevarse a cabo un
rodaje previo. Para la primera hora o 20 Km. de la operación, rodar
el motor a una baja y moderada velocidad y r/min.
NOTE
The slow riding necessary during the break-in period may cause
carbon to build up on the spark plug and foul it. If inspection
of the spark plug shows this to be the case, replace the standard
spark plug with a hotter spark plug for the duration of the break-
in period.
