20 Before Riding
Are You Ready to Ride?
Before you ride your motorcycle for the first
time, we strongly recommend that you:
• read this owner’s manual
• make sure you understand all the safety
messages
• know how to operate all the controls
Before each ride, we also suggest that you
make sure you:
• are in good physical and mental condition
• are free of alcohol and drugs
• are wearing an approved motorcycle helmet
(with chin strap tightened securely), eye
protection, and other protective clothing
For your safety, we strongly recommend that
you always wear an approved motorcycle
helmet, eye protection, boots, gloves, long
pants, and a long-sleeved jersey, shirt, or jacket
whenever you ride. Although complete
protection is not possible, wearing the proper
gear can reduce the chance of injury when you
ride. Following are suggestions to help you
choose the proper gear.
