RIDING INSTRUCTIONS 63
Warning
Danger of accidents Longer stopping distance due to higher overall weight.
– Take the longer stopping distance into account when carrying a passenger and baggage.
Warning
Danger of accidents Delayed brake action on salted roads.
– There may be salt deposits on the brake discs. In order to restore the normal braking efficiency, you will need to remove the
deposits from the discs by carefully applying the brakes.
– When braking, first throttle back and then apply the front and rear brakes at the same time.
– On wet or slippery surfaces, mainly use the rear brake.
– Braking should always be completed before you enter a bend. Shift down to a lower gear that is appropriate to your speed.
– On long downhill stretches, use the braking effect of the engine. Do this by changing down two gears, but do not race the engine. You
will require less braking force and the brakes will not overheat.
7.6Stopping, parking

– Never leave the vehicle while the engine is running. Secure the vehicle against use by unauthorized persons. If you leave the
vehicle, lock the steering and remove the ignition key.

– Do not touch hot components such as exhaust system, radiator, engine, shock absorber and brakes. Allow these components to
cool down before starting work on them.
