Stopping And Parking - HYOSUNG Comet 250 R User Manual

STOPPING AND PARKING

1. Turn the throttle grip away from you to
close the throttle completely.
2. Apply the front and rear brakes evenly
and at the same time.
3. Downshift through the gears as road
speed decreases.
4. Select neutral with the clutch lever
squeezed towards the grip (disengaged
position) just before the motorcycle
stops. Neutral position can be confirmed
by observing the neutral indicator lamp.
WARNING
Inexperienced riders tend to underutilize
the front brake. This can cause
excessive stopping distance and lead to
a collision. Using only the front or rear
brake can cause skidding and loss of
control.
Apply both brakes evenly and at the
same time.
WARNING
Hard braking while turning may cause
wheel skid and loss of control.
Brake before you begin to turn.
WARNING
Hard braking on wet, loose, rough, or
other slippery surfaces can cause wheel
skid and loss of control.
Brake lightly and with care on slippery
or irregular surfaces.
WARNING
Following another vehicle too closely
can lead to a collision. As vehicle
speeds increase, stopping distance
increases progressively.
Be sure you have a safe stopping
distance between you and the vehicle in
front of you.
5. Park the motorcycle on a firm, flat
surface where it will not fall over.
WARNING
A hot muffler can burn you. The muffler
will be hot enough to burn you for some
time after stopping the engine.
Park the motorcycle where pedestrians
or children are not likely to touch the
muffler.
