Safety information

2-2

tice riding your motorcycle

where there is no traffic until you

have become thoroughly famil-

iar with the motorcycle and all of

its controls.

 Many accidents have been caused

by error of the motorcycle opera-

tor. A typical error made by the op-

erator is veering wide on a turn

due to excessive speed or under-

cornering (insufficient lean angle

for the speed).

• Always obey the speed limit and

never travel faster than warrant-

ed by road and traffic conditions.

• Always signal before turning or

changing lanes. Make sure that

other motorists can see you.

 The posture of the operator and

passenger is important for proper

control.

• The operator should keep both

hands on the handlebar and

both feet on the operator foot-

rests during operation to main-

tain control of the motorcycle.

• The passenger should always

hold onto the operator, the seat

strap or grab bar, if equipped,

with both hands and keep both

feet on the passenger footrests.

Never carry a passenger unless

he or she can firmly place both

feet on the passenger footrests.

 Never ride under the influence of

alcohol or other drugs.

 This motorcycle is designed for

on-road use only. It is not suitable

for off-road use.

Protective Apparel

The majority of fatalities from motorcy-

cle accidents are the result of head in-

juries. The use of a safety helmet is the

single most critical factor in the preven-

tion or reduction of head injuries.

 Always wear an approved helmet.

 Wear a face shield or goggles.

Wind in your unprotected eyes

could contribute to an impairment

of vision that could delay seeing a

hazard.

 The use of a jacket, heavy boots,

trousers, gloves, etc., is effective in

preventing or reducing abrasions

or lacerations.

 Never wear loose-fitting clothes,

otherwise they could catch on the

control levers, footrests, or wheels

and cause injury or an accident.

 Always wear protective clothing

that covers your legs, ankles, and

feet. The engine or exhaust sys-

tem become very hot during or af-

ter operation and can cause burns.

 A passenger should also observe

the above precautions.

Avoid Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

All engine exhaust contains carbon

monoxide, a deadly gas. Breathing car-

bon monoxide can cause headaches,

dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, confu-

sion, and eventually death.

Carbon Monoxide is a colorless, odor-

less, tasteless gas which may be pres-

ent even if you do not see or smell any

engine exhaust. Deadly levels of car-

bon monoxide can collect rapidly and

you can quickly be overcome and un-

able to save yourself. Also, deadly lev-

els of carbon monoxide can linger for

hours or days in enclosed or poorly

ventilated areas. If you experience any

symptoms of carbon monoxide poison-

ing, leave the area immediately, get

fresh air, and SEEK MEDICAL TREAT-
