Decided to read through the booklet. All o.k. until I came to the part about passengers. it reads "keep both feet on the ground and the brakes applied while the passenger mounts" Quite clearly, this is impossible. "keep both feet on the ground and the front brake applied" or "keep the left foot on the ground and the brakes applied" is fine. But this is NOT what they state. If it's a simple typo, then either they haven't checked for errors before going to print, or they don't realise that it's impossible. Either way, it's something that a newbie might not spot. If they really do mean "front brake", then they should alter the word "brakes". This is what I do when a passenger is getting on, but for all I know, they might want the newbies to use both brakes. :??:
