XRE 190
Avoid continuous braking.
Q
Repeated braking, such as when descending
long, steep slopes can seriously overheat the
brakes, reducing their effectiveness. Use engine
braking with intermittent use of the brakes to
reduce speed.
For full braking effectiveness, operate both the
Q
front and rear brakes together.
 Anti-lock brake system (Abs) on Front wheel
(XRE 190 Abs only)
This model equipped with an Anti-lock Brake System
(ABS) designed to help prevent the front brake from
locking up during hard braking.
There is no ABS function to the rear wheel.
Q
ABS does not reduce braking distance. In certain
Q
circumstances, ABS may result in a longer stopping
distance.
ABS does not function at speeds below 10 km/h
Q
(6 mph).
The brake lever may recoil slightly when applying
Q
the brake. This is normal.
Always use the recommended front/rear tyres and
Q
sprockets to ensure correct ABS operation.
 Engine braking
Engine braking helps slow your motorcycle down
when you release the throttle. For further slowing
action, downshift to a lower gear. Use engine braking
with intermittent use of the brakes to reduce speed
when descending long, steep slopes.
 wet or Rainy conditions
Road surfaces are slippery when wet, and wet brakes
further reduce braking efficiency.
Exercise extra caution when braking in wet conditions.
If the brakes get wet, apply the brakes while riding
at low speed to help them dry.
parking
Park on a firm, level surface.
Q
If you must park on a slight incline or loose surface,
Q
park so that the motorcycle cannot move or fall
over.
Make sure that high-temperature parts cannot
Q
come into contact with flammable materials.
Do not touch the engine, muffler, brakes and other
Q
high-temperature parts until they cool down.
