Smooth Acceleration - Benelli TnT300 Owner's Manual

PRE-RIDE INSPECTIONS

SMOOTH ACCELERATION

Pull in the clutch lever, paused for a moment then step on the shifter pedal to engage first gear. Twist the throttle grip towards your-
self and release the clutch lever slowly and smoothly at the same time. The vehicle will begin to move forward smoothly.
Warning:
Return the side stand to the upright position before riding.
Transmission usage
The transmission can ensure smooth running of the engine within the normal engine rpm range. Riders should choose a proper gear
according to the driving speed. It is dangerous to ride with the clutch disengaged. Downshift gear(s) when you slow down the vehicle
to allow the engine to run within the normal rpm range.
Riding uphill
When riding up a hill, the motorcycle will slow down and seem to be lacking power. Downshift to lower gears so that engine can gen-
erate normal power. Shift gears swiftly to prevent the motorcycle from losing speed.
Downshift to lower speed gears in order to provide engine braking when riding on a downhill slope. Don't over rev the engine.
Brake usage and stopping
Twist the throttle grip forward, away from yourself, to close the throttle. Use the front and rear brakes evenly. Downshift to lower
speed gears to slow down.
Before stopping the vehicle, hold in the clutch lever and shift into the neutral position. Check the neutral position indicator light to
confirm whether it is in neutral.
Notice:
It is dangerous to only use either the front brake or rear brake which may cause skidding or loss of control. Be careful
and use the brakes properly and evenly when you drive on wet or winding roads.
