DRIVING METHOD DRIVING POSITION The appropriate driving position is most important thing to driving safely. Eyes : Look at the front direction widely. Shoulders : Relieve the tension. Arms : Relieve the tension and bend arms to inside and let them act as the spring.
PRECAUTION WHEN DRIVING Secure the safe distance. If any abnormality is found, stop driving and contact service center to inspect the vehicle. Drive protectively. Do not obstruct the traffic. Restart the vehicle after 2~3 min when it is turned over. Do not drive on the pedestrian way or walkway.
STARTING Prior to starting always look around to avoid accident. Get on the vehicle after pulling back the stand. Start driving slowly after turning on the winker and releasing the brake while ensuring the safety around the vehicle. CAUTION Return the side stand to its original position, keep driving without doing this may cause turnover accident.
TURNING METHOD PRINCIPLE OF TURN EFFECT OF SPEED The basic principle of turn is balancing using the centrifugal The centrifugal force increases in inverse portion to the radius force which makes vehicle go outside and the gravity which of a curve and in portion to the square speed. Decelerate prior makes vehicle fall inside.
3 POSITIONS OF TURNING The basic principle of turn is balancing using combined force of < LEAN-IN > the centrifugal force and the gravity. This is a turning position with driver leaned inside more than All 3 positions require straightening the head and keeping the motorcycle.
TURNING METHOD < LEAN-OUT > This is a turning position with motorcycle leaned inside more than driver, which is opposite to the lean-in position. With this position, quick turn is well performed and driver can obtain wide front visual field adequate to drive on the rained or slippy road because it has best road holding.
PRECAUTION WHEN TURNING Do not drive inside of large truck's turn circle. < DEAD ANGLE ZONE > < DISTANCE BETWEEN THE FRONT AND REAR WHEEL TURN > Dead angle zone is the sight range which cannot be identified by It is distance between path of the front and rear wheel and driver and increases in proportion to the width of the motorcycle.
BRAKING METHOD BASIC PRINCIPLE OF BRAKE (FRICTION FORCE) RESTRAINT OF BRAKE EFFECT (INERTIA) Vehicle is braked using friction between road surface and tires. Braking distance increases 1.5 times on wet road and 3 times on icy road because friction force of road surface is decreased.
BRAKING METHOD IMPACT WHEN COLLISION Turn the throttle grip to its original position and decelerate Learn the proper braking method to prevent accident. using the engine brake. Erect the motorcycle straight. Brake using both front and rear brakes. COMPARISION OF BRAKING DISTANCE Vehicle speed : 50 km/h Impact increases in proportion to the speed and weight.
