Warning
overall braking performance. Extreme
braking may cause either wheel to lock,
reducing control of the motorcycle and
causing an accident (see ABS warnings
below).
When possible, reduce speed or brake
before entering a turn as closing the
throttle or braking in mid-turn may
cause wheel slip leading to loss of
control and an accident.
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

acceleration, braking or turning may
cause loss of control and an accident.

When descending

of the engine's braking effect by down

How to Ride the Motorcycle
Riding with your foot on the brake
pedal or your hands on the brake lever
may actuate the brake light, giving a
false indication to other road users. It
may also overheat the brake, reducing
braking effectiveness leading to loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
Do not coast with the engine switched
off, and do not tow the motorcycle.
The transmission
lubricated only when the engine is
running. Inadequate lubrication may
cause damage or seizure of the
transmission, which can lead to sudden
loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
ABS (Anti-Lock Brake System)
Where equipped, ABS prevents the
wheels from
maximizing the effectiveness of the
braking system in emergencies and
when riding on slippery surfaces. The
potentially shorter braking distances
ABS allows under certain conditions
are not a substitute for good riding
practice.
Always ride within the legal speed limit.
Never ride without due care and
attention and always reduce speed in
consideration of weather, road and
traffic conditions.
