CORNERING
Warning:
Excessively high cornering speeds can create the possibility of
tipping. Factors which affect the possibility of tipping include,
but are not limited to, cornering speed, steering angle (how
sharply you are turning), uneven surfaces, inclined surfaces
(such as heavily cambered pavements), riding from an area of
low traction to an area of high traction (such as passing from
grass areas to a paved area - especially at high speed while
turning), and abrupt directional changes. Do not corner at high
speed! If you feel that you may tip over in a corner, reduce
your speed and steering angle to prevent your Scooter from
tipping.
When cornering sharply, reduce your speed. When
using your at higher speeds, anticipate changes
in the road surface. This will greatly reduce the possibility of a
tip or fall. To avoid personal injury or property damage,
always exercise common sense when cornering.
It is always advisable when cornering to lean towards the
corner, just as you would on a bicycle, this will enhance the
sideways stability of your Scooter.
