When possible, reduce speed or brake before
entering a turn. Closing the throttle or braking in
mid-turn may cause wheel slippage which will
reduce control of your ATV.
Gradually increase the lever pressure as you
feel the brakes slowing your speed. The
pressure used depends on your speed and the
condition of the terrain you are riding. Slick ,
slippery or muddy ground requires gentler
braking.
Pulling one or both brake levers too hard may
cause the front and/or rear wheels to skid or
slide out of control. If this happens, release all
pressure on the lever(s) immediately. Steer
straight ahead to regain control. Then gently
reapply the brakes.
Independent use of only the front or rear brakes
reduces stopping performance. Extreme
braking may cause the wheels to lock, reducing
control of the ATV
