When riding in an area where you might not easily
be seen, such as desert terrain, mount a caution
flag on the machine. DO NOT use the flag pole
bracket as a trailer hitch.
WARNING
Always mount a caution flag on the machine to
make you more visible when operating in ar-
eas where you might not be seen by other off-
road vehicles. Watch carefully for other vehi-
cles.
Do not ride in areas posted "no trespassing". Do
not ride on private property without getting permis-
sion.
