CORRECT WAY OF DRIVING

 

STOPPING THE VEHICLE 

Approaching the parking point: 

Release the accelerator and apply both front and rear wheel brakes while the vehicle is 

slowing. 

Complete stop: 

Stop the engine by turning 

the main switch to “OFF”. 

 

Don’t park on uneven ground to avoid tipping over. 

 

CAUTIONS

 

 

 

BREAK-IN PROCESS 

During the first 500KM of riding, do not run the vehicle more then 60km/hr or approach 

maximum RPM of the engine.   

 

The break-in process will greatly increase the lifetime and long term power of the 

engine. 

 

 

Don’t turn the main switch or engine stop switch to “OFF” during operation.
