Braking Technique
This section will cover basic braking technique for your mini bike. To slow or stop the
mini bike, squeeze the brake lever firmly and smoothly. Gradually increase your braking
pressure as you feel it is needed. When you come to a stop, put your foot down to balance the mini
bike.
Generally, reduce your speed and complete your braking before you begin a turn. Avoid braking or
closing the throttle quickly while turning. Either of these actions may cause one or both of the wheels
to slip. Any wheel slip will reduce your control over the mini bike and could cause a crash.
When riding in wet or rainy conditions, or on loose surfaces such as mud or sand, your ability to
maneuver and stop the mini bike will be reduced. All of your actions should be done in a smooth and
steady manner under these conditions. Rapid acceleration, braking, or turning can cause you to lose
control of the mini bike. For your safety, exercise extreme caution when riding under wet, rainy, and/
or muddy conditions.
Parking & Post Ride Inspection
When you have finished riding, lower the kick stand to support your mini bike. Turn the engine stop
switch to the “OFF” position. If you are through riding for the day, turn the fuel valve to the “OFF”
position. Always park the mini bike on a flat level surface. If you will be storing the mini bike for a
long period of time, turn the fuel valve to the “OFF” position while the engine is still running. Open
and close the throttle repeatedly until the engine stops running on its own. This uses up any fuel that
still remains in the carburetor. This will help you avoid carburetor problems that can occur when your
mini bike is stored for long periods of time with gasoline left in the carburetor.
