BASIC SAFETY RULES

The instructions given below cover normal

operation of your vehicle and must be

carefully observed. By following these rules

you will enhance your own safety and the

safety of those around you. You will also

maximize the life and utility of your vehicle.

Two-wheeled vehicles obviously do not

provide some of the protection provided by

automobiles, therefore it is essential that you

wear appropriate protective clothing.

Especially, never operate your vehicle

without wearing your helmet, gloves, eye

protection, a heavy jacket, sturdy footwear,

and sturdy full length pants.

However, do not assume that even the best

clothing and helmet will protect you in the

event of an upset or a crash with another

vehicle. At best, this gear provides some

protection from scrapes and scratches, but

very little, if any, impact protection.

Be sure that you meet all the requirements

prescribed by local law, including driver’s

license, minimum age, training, insurance,

taxes, vehicle registration, license plate, etc.

When you first receive your vehicle, practice

by riding in areas where there is little traffic.

Do not attempt to ride in heavy traffic until

you are thoroughly experienced and riding

your vehicle has become second nature to

you.

Although this vehicle is legal for operation on

freeways and expressways, it is advisable to

not ride on these high speed highways until

you are thoroughly familiar with your vehicle,

and have attained a high degree of skill in its

operation.

A new vehicle must be carefully broken in,

see page 56 (RUNNING-IN).

Before starting the engine, make sure that

the brakes, clutch, transmission and throttle

controls function properly and that the fuel

and oil supply is adequate.

The exhaust system, brakes, and some

other parts of the vehicle become very hot

during operation. Do not touch any of these

parts.

Some medicines or drugs, illegal or under

prescription, and alcohol significantly

increase the risk of accidents.

Do not ride while you are under the influence

of alcohol or drugs, be they illegal or under

prescription. Make sure you are in good

physical condition and not ill before riding

your vehicle.

Do not ride your vehicle when you are

particularly tired or fatigued. Alcohol, drugs

and fatigue are leading causes of vehicle

accidents.

Many accidents are caused by the rider’s

inexperience and lack of training. Do not ride

your vehicle until you have received training

from a recognized training organization such

as the Motorcycle Safety Foundation.

Remember that riding a two- wheeled

vehicle, though easy and fun, is quite

different from driving a car. Do not assume

that you can operate your vehicle safely just

because you are a competent automobile

driver.

Never lend your vehicle to others unless you

are sure that they are competent and

properly licensed vehicle operators.
