TYPICAL
1. Brake lever
2. To apply brakes
NOTE:
As on other wheeled vehicles,
the vehicle weight is transferred to the
front wheels when braking. To obtain
greater stopping efficiency, the brake
system distributes more braking force
to the front wheels. This will affect
vehicle handling and steering control
when braking vigorously. Take it into
account when braking.
4) Parking Brake
The parking brake is located on the LH
side of the handlebar.
When applied, it prevents the vehicle
from moving. Useful when the brake
needs to be locked for example when
doing a K-turn, during transportation or
when the vehicle is not in operation.
WARNING
Always use the parking brake and
engage the PARK position on the
shift lever when the vehicle is not
in operation.
WARNING
Make sure parking brake is fully
disengaged before operating the
vehicle. When you ride the vehi-
cle, brakes that are caused to drag
by a continuous pressure on the
lever may cause damage to the
brake system and cause loss of
braking capacity and/or fire.
To engage mechanism:
Squeeze
brake lever and maintain while moving
locking lever. Brake lever is now com-
pressed and applying brakes.
