RIDING YOUR TVS STRYKER 3V
Riding on hills/gradients
When climbing steep hills, the motorcycle may begin
to slow down and show lack of power. At this point
the rider should shift to a lower gear so that the engine
will again be operating in its normal power range. Shift
gears rapidly to prevent the motorcycle from losing
momentum.
When riding down a hill, the engine may be used as
brake by shifting to a lower gear.
STOPPING AND PARKING
1. Close the throttle completely and apply both the
brakes simultaneously.
2. Down shift the gears with clutch lever pressed /
disengaged as the road speed decreases. Bring
the engine to neutral position just before the
vehicle stops.
3. Turn the ignition 'OFF'.
4. Park the vehicle on a firm, flat surface.
5. Lock the steering.
Warning
Reduce speed to a safe limit before turning/cornering.
Do not apply brake while turning/cornering. Do not
disengage clutch before braking.
Warning
Since the engine and exhaust system becomes very
hot, make sure to park the vehicle in a place where
pedestrians or children are not likely to touch the hot
surface. Do not park near dry grass or any other
flammable resources which might catch fire.
FUEL RECOMMENDATION
Use unleaded petrol only.
The petrol should be minimum 91 RON. Use
recommended fuel additives for longer life of engine
components and lower maintenance. Petrol mixed
with ethanol will have impact on engine components.
Contact your TVS Motor Company Authorised
Distributor or Dealer / Authorised Service Center for
usage.
Caution
Never mix oil and petrol in the fuel tank. Always fill fuel
from reputed and reliable fuel stations.
Note
Use fuel additives in petrol as recommended by the
respective manufacturer for low carbon deposition.
