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 before driving onto slippery surfaces.
3. Be alert. Watch the trail. Avoid quick, sharp turns.
4. Never apply the brakes during a skid. To correct a rear wheel skid,

turn the handlebars in the same direction as the skid and shift body

weight forward.
