Suzuki JR50 Owner's Manual page 13

Rehearse before riding out for
the first time.
Let the young rider mount the
machine and do a dry rehearsal
with the engine off. The rider
should be fully outfitted with hel-
met, eye protection (goggles or
face shield), and protective cloth-
ing (gloves, leather or heavy cloth
pants, long sleeve shirt or jacket,
boots that fit over the ankle).
Watch the way he or she operates
the controls (particularly throttle
and brakes). Make sure the shift-
ing sequence is perfectly memo-
rized. Smooth
braking (front and rear) is particu-
larly important.
Learn the techniques of
standing-start and stopping
with both brakes.
Practice makes perfect. Let the
young rider repeat after you, as
many times as necessary, until
you are sure he or she has
learned the technique.

WARNING
Operating this motorcycle with-
out proper instruction can be
hazardous. The risk of having
an accident greatly increases if
you do not train the youngster
how to operate this motorcycle
properly in different situations
and on different types of ter-
rain.
Train your young rider in a
level, open area free of any traf-
fic so he or she can become
familiar with the operation of
controls and the handling char-
acteristics of the motorcycle.
