Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)

This model is equipped with an Anti-lock Brake
System (ABS) designed to help prevent the
brakes from locking up during hard braking.
●
ABS does not reduce braking distance. In
certain circumstances, ABS may result in a
longer stopping distance.
●
ABS does not function at speeds below 10
km/h (6 mph).
●
The brake lever and pedal may recoil slightly
when applying the brakes. This is normal.
●
Always use the recommended tyres to ensure
correct ABS operation.

Engine Braking

Engine braking helps slow your motorcycle
down when you release the throttle. For further
slowing action, downshift to a lower gear. Use
engine braking with intermittent use of the
brakes to reduce speed when descending long,
steep slopes.
❙

Wet or Rainy Conditions

Road surfaces are slippery when wet, and wet
brakes further reduce braking efficiency.
Exercise extra caution when braking in wet
conditions.
If the brakes get wet, apply the brakes while
riding at low speed to help them dry.
