dently.

WARNING
Always keep a sufficient distance
from the vehicle ahead to match the
riding speed even with ABS.
 The ABS performs best with
long braking distances.
 On certain surfaces, such as
rough or gravel roads, the brak-
ing distance may be longer with
the ABS than without.
How to operate the brakes
Operate the brake lever and brake
pedal the same as you would conven-
tional brakes. If wheel slip is detected
while braking, ABS will activate and a
pulsating sensation may be felt at the
brake lever or brake pedal. Continue to
apply the brakes and let the ABS work.
Do not pump the brakes as this will re-
duce braking effectiveness.
