both of your arms. Keep the motorcycle in balance and apply the
rear brake to slow down your speed.
Unless otherwise necessary, do not press the accelerator
lever.
Do not apply only the front brake to avoid the motorcycle
flipping over.
Do not allow the motorcycle to coast downhill with the gear
shift in neutral.
Going uphill
When going uphill, move your gravity as forward as
possible. Also, sit in the front part of the seat and bend your
upper body forward. Keep a steady speed in the uphill process
and keep the motorcycle balanced.
Caution
If the slope is too high to proceed and the motorcycle is
moving backward, apply the front brake to slow down and
carefully control the motorcycle to slip down. If it is beyond
control, the rider should immediately get off from the left
side to avoid the risk of being crushed by the motorcycle
once it turns over.
Do not apply only the rear brake to avoid the motorcycle
flipping over.
Do not abruptly apply the accelerator.
Riding through water
Watch the speed of water current and its depth if riding through
water is necessary. If water flows very fast or is deep, the
performance of the motorcycle will be affected, which may cause
unsafely to the rider.
Warning
Do not ride across a river with fast current or great depth
to avoid loss of control of the motorcycle and cause risk of
hazard to the rider.
After crossing the water area, you should check that the
brake function is normal. If it is not, slow down your speed and
also intermittently apply both front and rear brakes to restore
the brake function.
If it takes a long period of time to ride through the water
area and the brake system submerges in water too long, it will
lead to loss of brake function. Do not ride this motorcycle any
longer and take it to the nearest service center for inspection
and servicing.
