MOTORCYCLE SAFETY
x Motorcycle riding requires special efforts on your part to ensure your safety. Know these
requirements before you ride.
SAFE RIDING RULES
1. Always make a pre-ride inspection (page
35) before you start the engine. You may
prevent an accident or equipment damage
2. Learn to ride in an uncongested off-road
area free or obstacles before venturing into
unfamiliar terrain.
3. Always obey local off-road riding laws and
regulations.
4. Obtain permission to ride on private
property. Avoid posted areas and obey "no
trespassing" signs.
5. Ride with a friend on another motorcycle
so that you can assist each other in case of
trouble.
6. Familiarity with your motorcycle is
critically important should a problem
occur far from help.
7. Never ride beyond your ability and
experience or faster than conditions
warrant.
8. If you are not familiar with the terrain,
ride cautiously. Hidden rocks holes, or
ravines could spell disaster.
9. Spark arresters and mufflers are required
in most areas. Don't modify your exhaust
system. Remember that excessive noise
bothers everyone and creates a bad
image for motorcycling.

to be ridden on the highway. Remember
to walk an off-road motorcycle when
crossing public highways, roads or
streets.
