Brakes
Do not position fingers between hand control lever and
handlebar grip. Improper hand positioning can impair
control lever operation and cause loss of vehicle control,
which could result in death or serious injury. (00032a)
Front brake lever: See Controls and Service Components. The front brake lever (5) controls
the front brake. Operate the hand lever with the fingers of the right hand.
Rear brake pedal: See Controls and Service Components. The rear brake pedal (6) activates
the rear wheel brake.
Do not apply brake strongly enough to lock the wheel. A
locked wheel will skid and can cause loss of vehicle
control, which could result in death or serious injury.
(00053a)
Apply brakes evenly to prevent wheels from locking up. A balance between rear and front brake is
best.
