Avoid opening and closing the throttle
a
grip repeatedly and continuously, so that
you do not accidentally lose control of the
vehicle.
If you have to brake, close the throttle and put on
both brakes in order to obtain uniform decelera-
tion, properly exerting pressure on the braking
parts.
By putting on the front brake only or the rear
brake only, you reduce the braking force consid-
erably, thus running the risk of locking one wheel
and consequently losing grip.
Before beginning to turn, slow down or brake
driving at moderate and constant speed or accel-
erating slightly; avoid braking at the last mo-
ment: it would be very easy to skid.
If the brakes are operated continuously on down-
hill stretches, the friction surfaces can overheat,
thus reducing the braking efficiency.
Never drive with the engine off!
In case of wet ground or scarce wheel grip (snow,
ice, mud, etc.), drive slowly, avoiding sudden
brakings or manoeuvres that could make you
lose grip and fall down.
