Operation
Driving on Slippery Surfaces
Whenever riding on slippery surfaces such as wet
trails or loose gravel, or during freezing weather,
follow these precautions:
1. Do not operate on excessively rough, slippery
or loose terrain.
2. Slow down when entering slippery areas.
3. Maintain a high level of alertness, reading the
trail and avoiding quick, sharp turns, which
can cause skids.
4. Never apply the brakes during
a skid. Correct a skid by
turning the handlebars in the
direction of the skid and
shifting your body weight
forward.
