RIDING INSTRUCTIONS
Ride economically and be aware of the environment
Fuel consumption, environmental pol lu tion
and wear of engine, brakes and tyres de-
pend on various factors.
Your personal riding style is highly de ter -
mi nant for economical fuel con sump tion
and exhaust gas and noise gen er a tion.
While idling, the engine takes a long time
to warm up to operational tem per a ture. In
the warm-up phase, however, the wear level
and pollutant emissions are very high. It is
therefore best to start riding immediately
after start-up.
Avoid rapid acceleration
Open the throttle not further than need ed,
in order to reduce fuel con sump tion as well
as pollution and wear levels.
Do not use excessive revs; change up as
soon as possible and do not change down
until it is necessary to do so.
Ride as evenly as possible and look
ahead as far as possible.
Unnecessary acceleration and hard braking
cause high fuel con sump tion and increased
pollution levels.
Turn the engine off when waiting in
traf fi c.
Different riding conditions affect fuel con-
sumption. The following conditions are
unfavourable for fuel consumption:
-
High traffi c density, especially in big cities
with many stops for traffi c lights.
-
Frequent short rides with repeated starts
and warm-ups of the engine.
-
Riding in a column of motor cycles at low
speed, meaning riding with rel a tive ly high
revs.
Plan rides ahead of time in order to avoid
heavy traffi c.
