Note : • All dimensions are under UNLADEN condition. • Above
information is subject to change without any notice. • This vehicle
complies to BS VI standards. • AHO / DRL is government regulation.
• Dual Channel ABS System is fitted in these vehicles
• Dual channel ABS means ABS is fitted on front & rear wheels
• Always maintain a safe distance between you and objects
ahead. Vehicle speeds should always be reduced during
extreme road conditions. The braking distance for motorcycle
equipped with an anti-lock braking system may be longer than
for those without it on rough road conditions. During these
conditions the vehicle should be driven at reduced speeds
• When you apply Front brake / Rear brake by pressing Front
brake lever/Rear brake pedal under conditions which may lock
the wheels, you feel a corresponding sensation (pulsation) in
Front brake lever/ Rear brake pedal. (as applicable to model)
This is normal and it means ABS is active.
• ABS technology requires the rider to brake appropriately to
ensure safer braking specially under acute conditions.
• Also it is recommended to use both front and rear brakes
simultaneously.
• Always slow down when cornering. The anti-lock brake system
cannot prevent accidents resulting from excessive speeds.
• Never drive by disconnecting wheel speedometer cable.
