EXPERIENCED RIDERS ONLY

This vehicle is not for beginners.
All Cannondale motorsports products are designed
for use by trained and experienced riders only. All are
very high performance, competition sport machines
and should only be operated by licensed competition
riders in excellent physical condition, who are well-
trained and experienced in the operation of high per-
formance competition vehicles.

EXERCISE GOOD JUDGEMENT

There is always risk involved when riding a vehicle;
however, making sure you and the vehicle are in the
best condition possible will ensure a great riding
experience. Use sound judgement when riding.
Never ride under the influence of alcohol, some over-
the-counter medications (read the product label), or
drugs. Doing so will greatly reduce your ability to
properly operate this vehicle and could lead to an
accident, injury, and/or death. If you are taking pre-
scribed medications, consult your doctor before
riding.

NO MODIFICATIONS

We recommend that you do not substitute parts,
change or modify your vehicle. Such changes could
seriously impair your vehicle's handling, stability, and
braking, making it unsafe to ride and causing serious
injury and/or vehicle damage.

NO PASSENGERS

Do not overload this vehicle or carry passengers.
Doing so could seriously impair your vehicle's han-
dling, stability, and braking, making it unsafe to ride
which could result in damage to the vehicle or
serious injury or death to the operator and/or pas-
senger.
