To Decelerate - Yamaha BANSHEE YFZ350S Owner's Manual

EBU00207

To decelerate

When slowing down or stopping, release the
throttle and apply the brakes smoothly and
evenly. As you slow down, shift to a lower
gear. Be sure that the engine has sufficiently
slowed before engaging a lower gear.
Improper use of the brakes or shifting can
cause the tires to lose traction, reducing con-
trol and increasing the possibility of an acci-
dent.
q WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Engaging a lower gear when the engine
speed is too high.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
The wheels could stop rotating. This
could cause loss of control, an accident
and injury. It could also cause engine or
drive train damage.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Make sure the engine has sufficiently
slowed before shifting to a lower gear.
