SAFETY INFORMATION EAU00014

MOTORCYCLES ARE SINGLE TRACK VEHICLES. THEIR SAFE USE AND OPERATION ARE

DEPENDENT UPON THE USE OF PROPER RIDING TECHNIQUES AS WELL AS THE EXPERTISE

OF THE OPERATOR. EVERY OPERATOR SHOULD KNOW THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS

BEFORE RIDING THIS MOTORCYCLE.

HE OR SHE SHOULD:

1. OBTAIN THOROUGH INSTRUCTIONS FROM A COMPETENT SOURCE ON ALL ASPECTS OF

MOTORCYCLE OPERATION.

2. OBSERVE THE WARNINGS AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS IN THE OWNER’S MANUAL.

3. OBTAIN QUALIFIED TRAINING IN SAFE AND PROPER RIDING TECHNIQUES.

4. OBTAIN PROFESSIONAL TECHNICAL SERVICE AS INDICATED BY THE OWNER’S MANUAL

AND/OR WHEN MADE NECESSARY BY MECHANICAL CONDITIONS.

Safe riding

1. Always make pre-operation checks. Careful checks may help prevent an accident.

2. This motorcycle is designed to carry the operator and a passenger.

3. The failure of motorists to detect and recognize motorcycles in traffic is the predominating cause of

automobile/motorcycle accidents. Many accidents have been caused by an automobile driver who

did not see the motorcycle. Making yourself conspicuous appears to be very effective in reducing the

chance of this type of accident.

Therefore:

a. Wear a brightly colored jacket.

b. Use extra caution when you are approaching and passing through intersections, since intersec-

tions are the most likely places for motorcycle accidents to occur.

c. Ride where other motorists can see you. Avoid riding in another motorist’s blind spot.

SAFETY INFORMATION

4. Many accidents involve inexperienced operators. In fact, many operators who have been involved in

accidents do not even have a current motorcycle license.

a. Make sure that you are qualified and that you only lend your motorcycle to other qualified opera-

tors.

b. Know your skills and limits. Staying within your limits may help you to avoid an accident.

c. We recommend that you practice riding your motorcycle where there is no traffic until you have

become thoroughly familiar with the motorcycle and all of its controls.

5. Many accidents have been caused by error of the motorcycle operator. A typical error made by the

operator is veering wide on a turn due to EXCESSIVE SPEED or undercornering (insufficient lean

angle for the speed).

a. Always obey the speed limit and never travel faster than warranted by road and traffic conditions.

b. Always signal before turning or changing lanes. Make sure that other motorists can see you.

6. The posture of the operator and passenger is important for proper control.

a. The operator should keep both hands on the handlebar and both feet on the operator footrests

during operation to maintain control of the motorcycle.

b. 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.

c. Never carry a passenger unless he or she can firmly place both feet on the passenger footrests.

7. Never ride under the influence of alcohol or other drugs.

8. This motorcycle is designed for on-road use only. It is not suitable for off-road use.
